Bathroom Bananza- Tiles and Wallpaper edition

This year has showcased the rustic and vintage look when it comes to interiors. With this in mind it is no wonder there has also been a subsequent increase of popularity in wallpaper. Wallpaper today is so vast in style, texture and design that any look or theme can be achieved. One room which had previously received little attention was the bathroom. However with the below tips there is no excuse for not having your bathroom as stylish as any other room in the house.

Half and Half

With this style place your tiles on the bottom half of a wall and paper on the tops. This way it will be easy to clean and you won’t have to worry about the odd splash of water having an effect on the wallpaper.

When considering tiles keep in mind how it will complement the wallpaper. Tiles are so realist now that choosing a marble effect tile will give you that stunning look that often times can be passed off as the real thing and won’t leave you mourning for your bank account.

Feature Wall

If you’re worried or skeptical about using wallpaper on every wall in the bathroom, try instead creating a feature wall. This means you can use a more traditional tiling method but still benefit from that stylish effect of a wallpaper. Try using a skirting board or some beading between your tiled floors and wallpapered walls to further define the definition between the two.

Balance

While patterns are most definitely one of this years biggest trends, sometimes less is more. By all means use a pattern in your wallpaper but perhaps partner it up with a plain tile.

Contrast

However clashing patterns are somewhat of a craze as of late, be careful to put thought into your contrasting patterns to achieve your desired haphazard look.Try using that half and half look we’ve talked about previously to complement your beautiful patterned tiles with striking wallpaper.
