Are you looking to gain square meters in your home without having to push the walls? Panoramic wallpaper is the ideal solution to deceive the eye and create the illusion of a larger room: higher, deeper or from a completely different perspective. Thanks to panoramic wallpaper, gain comfort in your studio, your entrance, your corridor, your toilet, your small bathroom or any other room and give character to your wall decoration.
Its non-woven material also makes the panoramic wallpaper very easy to install, so much so that when you have your sublime mural in front of you, you will wonder why you hadn't installed it before 😉.
Discover without further delay our best visual tips to make your room more spacious with wallpaper!
Choosing the Right Wallpaper Colors to Make a Small Room Look Bigger
Light wallpaper to reflect light and stretch the room
Light colours are unbeatable in making your room feel bigger; they capture light better and thus allow you not to lose sight of every single available square metre . You can opt for panoramic wallpaper with pastel colours, for beige, white, light grey wallpaper, etc. or even for a refined black and white mural.
Very colorful wallpaper to contrast and give an impression of depth
If you have a cramped, narrow room, go for boldness! To gain depth, dare to use darker, more intense shades for your panoramic wallpaper. For example, you could apply it to the back wall of your toilet to visually push it back and give the impression of a much larger room than it actually is.
Rely on trompe l’oeil to give a completely different perspective to your interior
Trompe l'oeil wallpaper is unmatched in making a room appear larger than it actually is. It allows you to create a completely different perspective in your interior. It's not for nothing that it has been used since ancient times! This wallpaper can be used anywhere in your home, but it works particularly well in a living room or bedroom.
The panoramic wallpaper trompe l'oeil 3D effect
Go explore vast mysterious corridors, walk on a pontoon towards the ocean or dive into a photographic setting as if you were there, this is the promise of the panoramic wallpaper trompe l'oeil 3D effect. It gives you sensations of elsewhere and depth of room without moving from your bed or your sofa. We love it!
The panoramic wallpaper trompe l'oeil material effect
To give depth to your small room, if you are not a fan of photographic landscapes or graphic representations that take you elsewhere, opt instead for panoramic wallpaper with a material effect! Non-woven trompe l'oeil wallpaper can wonderfully imitate wood, stone, moldings or even sculptures to bring a feeling of relief to your walls .
Using geometry to stretch your walls
Wallpaper with vertical stripes or a dominant vertical pattern
We already know the power of vertical stripes when we wear them; they make us slimmer and taller. Well, their effectiveness is the same for your walls! Vertical stripes enlarge your walls, so they are ideal for giving a feeling of greater ceiling height and stretching your room upwards . You can choose a panoramic wallpaper with a simple striped pattern or opt for a decor with a vertical dominance, such as a forest. On the contrary, if you are looking to stretch the walls in length, horizontal stripes are made for you!
Panoramic wallpaper of various geometric or architectural shapes
For a more designer wall decoration, more "freestyle" than straight stripes, opt for wallpapers with more advanced geometries. Each in their own way, they allow you to enlarge your room, whether by stretching your walls upwards or by giving them a feeling of depth . We have geometric decorations for all tastes, from the most architectural like the 3D beam print wallpaper, to the most sober like the chevron pattern.
Dare to use imposing patterns to contrast your room and give it character
As with very colorful wallpapers, with rather dark colors, XXL patterns bring contrast and depth to a room. These imposing patterns simply upset any notion of space! Contrary to popular belief, they are therefore ideal allies for smaller spaces.
You can opt for a panoramic wallpaper with imposing geometric patterns – presented previously – or choose a panoramic wallpaper with large flowers or plants.
In addition to giving you the impression of gaining square meters, these large patterns give a real identity and a full-fledged atmosphere to your interior, without having to overload it with furniture to dress it. It's a must have!
Our tips for making your room look bigger with panoramic wallpaper
Wallpaper on a single wall
To visually create additional space in your interior, we recommend that you apply your panoramic wallpaper to a single wall panel . It is more than enough to decorate, personalize your interior and give the impression of pushing back the walls of your entire room!
