Walls
Paint
As far as I am concerned painted walls are just the first step in decoration. For those who love the simplicity of flat colour I agree there is nothing to beat this very minimal look, however for livable living spaces companies like Farrow and Ball and the Paint Library who deal with a stunning pallet of colours in a more considered, architectural appearance are the best choices.
Wallpaper
Since truly budget interiors are thankfully taking a backseat, the best dressed walls now have wallpaper. From as little as £20 a roll, to exclusive wide-width wall fabrics, texture, pattern and colour make an enviable statement to your home. Immediately adding atmosphere and adornment to your room.
A first step for the less brave would be to go for pattern or texture in tonal colours or allowing a self colour with only texture to make the statement. Once hooked you'll be covering walls in stripes, checks and florals, adding bold character to your room. For those seeking a half-way house why not opt for a feature wall (usually the fireplace or longest facing wall as you enter the room) this will give you some impact but complimentary paint colour on the other walls, should give you the perfect blend.
