Decorating with Wall Panels
Wall panels are a fantastic way of creating a unique and eye-catching interior. In this blog we take a look at where – and how – wall panels can be used throughout the home.
What Rooms Can You Use Wall Panels In?
With myriad designs, textures, and colours now available, wall panels can be used in any room of the home.
Bathrooms
Most wall panels are 100% waterproof which makes them perfect for use in a bathroom. Bathroom wall panels also do not require any grout during the installation process which reduces the chance of mould developing, making them extremely hygienic.
Kitchens
With their stylish good looks and ease of maintenance, wall panels are the ideal choice for busy rooms like kitchens. They can be used behind sinks and food preparation work tops to create a sophisticated, but hygienic, space.
Living Rooms
With realistic designs and textures, wall panels can perfectly emulate the real thing, from wood and concrete to marble, allowing you to create a truly striking living room interior.
Bedrooms
Whether you choose to use them on just one wall or cover the entire room, wall panels are a simple way of adding style and substance to any bedroom.
Decorative Uses
We do not always have to use wall coverings simply for practical reasons. We can also use them decoratively to create a feeling, an atmosphere, and a ‘look’.
Feature Wall
Feature walls are where one wall in your room is decorated differently to the rest, to create a focal point. Traditionally, wallpaper would be used to achieve this look, but wall panels are the ideal alternative, being available in a variety of designs and extremely easy to fit.
Alternative to Paint or Wallpaper
As mentioned above, paint or wallpaper is the traditional wall covering of choice when it comes to decorating your home. However, wall panels offer so much more – easy to install, simple to look after, and stylishly beautiful, they are the perfect choice for busy households.
What are the Advantages?
You may still be leaning towards wallpaper or paint to decorate your home, so here are our top four advantages of choosing wall panels.
Cost-Effective
Marble, concrete, wood, and traditional tile are all expensive materials. Wall panels allow you to perfectly emulate these looks but at a fraction of the cost.
Easy to Install
Unlike ceramic tiles and wallpaper, wall panels are extremely easy to install. You do not require any specialist tools or skills, and they can be fitted in half the time, allowing you to create the interior of your dreams simply and quickly.
Easy to Maintain
Wall panels require only a wipe with a clean, damp cloth to keep them looking like new, which is an advantage in any room in your home.
Easy to Replace
Unlike wallpaper, which needs stripping, and paint, which needs undercoats and numerous coats of paint, wall panels can be replaced with ease. Whether the wall is damaged, or trends have changed, and you want a new design, wall panels can be removed easily and replaced just as quickly.
