Original wall covering: forget about paint & wallpaper, go for wood, leather or textile!

Under the weather? Choose leather!

When you choose leather to cover your wall, you create a cool, robust appearance. On top of that, leather breaths luxury. Keep in mind these two tips when experimenting with leather:

• Less is more. When integrating leather in your interior, this is the tag line you should keep in mind. Leather is rather heavy (figuratively), so make sure you don’t exaggerate.
• The right colour. Consider different colours. Leather is at its prettiest in dark colours, and available in all kinds of black, brown and grey. But when you dare to go for leather, why not choosing deep blue or dark green?

Why not wood?

Maybe wooden wall covering gives you nothing but Swiss chalet vibes. Let’s change that idea forever! A wooden wall fits every interior style, from rural to hypermodern. When you go for wood, there will be 3 choices to make: the colour, the wood type and the orientation (sounds intelligent, doesn’t it?)

• The colour. Wood is wonderful in its natural colour, but if you don’t like the natural character, all you need is a paintbrush and your favourite colour to lighten it up!
• The wood type. Several types of wood can be used to cover your wall. Wood scaffolding, for example, gives your interior an aged outdoor look.
• The orientation. You can have wood installed in every possible direction. Horizontal of vertical are popular, but a herringbone pattern can be nice too.

Textile take over

Our favourite in the category ‘original wall covering’? Textile! Textile gives your wall more depth and texture and it adds instant cosiness to your living room or bedroom. Even a small part of your wall covered in textile can be the eyecatcher you needed.

Not every fabric is as appropriate to cover your wall. Velvet is the perfect choice when you like luxury and a cosy atmosphere. Moreover, velvet is beautiful in every possible colour.
