Wall murals in the bedroom

Since its inception, photomurals have greatly simplified the process of decorating a residential interior, making it easy, interesting and very exciting. After all, the choice of subjects for the image is incalculable. It remains only to choose a beautiful picture that will decorate the bedroom. By the way, wall murals are also a quick way to update the familiar interior, to make it sparkle with new colors.

Photowall-paper differs from other materials used to decorate a room in a huge variety of plots for every taste, style, size, wallet.

The advantages of the material include the following points:

4. Easy maintenance (most of the wallpaper has a washable surface).
5. Ease of use (wallpaper is applied to the wall with glue or self-adhesive backing).
6. Environmental friendliness and safety of the material.

Wall murals can have different textures:

• Smooth - the most common option, the wallpaper has a flat smooth surface.
• Decorative plaster - this is exactly the feeling the wallpaper creates when you touch their surface.
• Sand - the wallpaper has a grainy, rough surface.
• Canvas - one of the most popular textures, such wallpapers outwardly resemble the picturesque canvases of ancient artists.

• Painting - the texture simulates light strokes with an artist's brush.
• Frost - the drawing seems to be created by light white particles of frost on the window glass.
• Bark - imitation of the bark of trees with their veins and rough relief, used to depict nature.
• Leather - soft, pleasant to the touch texture is used for portraits or portraits of animals.

• Silk - the delicate surface is ideal for oriental ornaments or subjects.

By the type of drawing, photo wallpaper can be created using latex, printing and polymer inks:

2. Wallpaper created with printing ink has a specific smell. They are cheaper and, as a rule, allow wet care.
3. Latex ink is the safest, so this type of wallpaper is often used to decorate children's bedrooms. The material is resistant to mechanical damage, frequent washing.

Wall murals perform several functions in the interior at once:

• Zoning. With the help of a photographic image, you can select a separate part of the room (for example, an area for sleeping, relaxing, reading books, working).
• Placement of accents. With the help of a bright colorful image, you can radically transform a calm and restrained interior.
• Visually change the boundaries of the room. Here we are talking about panoramic photographs, for example, a view from a window, from a terrace, a balcony, an image of the open sky.
• Visual change in the size of the room. High mountains, skyscrapers, trees help to "stretch" a low room. A picture depicting a road leading into the distance, an open window, the sea or a thicket will visually make the bedroom much wider.

• Lighting. A photographic image of the open sky, white clouds, a flying plane or a hovering bird will help to make a small or dark room brighter and more airy.
• Style. Many photographs are made stylized to further emphasize the direction in which the interior is designed. For example, for the Japanese style, these are cranes, sakura, samurai fights. For the directions of the Middle Ages, these are images of ancient castles or knightly duels.
• Aesthetic appeal. The opportunity to decorate your own interior with a magnificent portrait, landscape, still life, so that the rest also delivers a purely aesthetic pleasure.

Photo wallpaper is based on two layers, one of which is base. Depending on the type of base, photowall-paper is divided into:

2. Paper - the cheapest, but fragile and permeable option;
3. Non-woven - natural material with excellent aesthetic and performance characteristics. The disadvantage is the high cost;
4. Vinyl - good strength characteristics, disadvantage - air tightness.

The top layer of the photo canvas can also be different:

1. Textile. The rough surface of the wallpaper is ideal for depicting natural landscapes and landscapes.
2. Matte coating. Most often it is a paper layer with a smooth surface, devoid of shine.
3. Laminated surface. A special protective film gives a glossy shine to the image.

3D wallpaper is one of the most beautiful and spectacular types of such canvases. They can be performed in several versions:

• panoramic wallpaper (large enough, often occupy several walls at once);
• fragmented (they are small in size, resemble a picture or panel in appearance);
• roll (replaces ordinary wallpaper, can be used to accentuate a specific wall or create an interior background);
• fluorescent (glow in the dark);
• LED (The electronic system controlled by the remote control can change the tone and intensity of the colors if desired).

The choice of the place where the wallpaper will be located depends on many reasons: their size, the task that is set for them, the configuration and size of the room, the image applied to the wallpaper, the intensity of its color and many other parameters.
