Red wallpaper can work wonders

Red is a colour that works well in any room where you want a high level of energy. In an office, wallpapering an accent wall in red usually enhances the levels of productivity and creativity. You can find the perfect shade of red wallpaper for almost every room – even the kitchen can benefit from a touch of red. What we would not recommend, though, is having red wallpaper in a bedroom. The bedroom is somewhere where you spend a large part of your life – mostly asleep, but when you’re awake you want to relax. Red wallpaper has a little too much energy and can make it hard to go to sleep. Another noticeable effect is that in rooms with red wallpaper people talk and behave more animatedly than they would in rooms decorated in other colours.

Styling with red wallpaper

You will have to design your room carefully, because red wallpaper gives off so much energy and has such an impact on anyone in the room. To soften the effect of red wallpaper it’s best to choose more muted shades of red, as this makes it easier to style the rest of the room, especially if you use white, black or grey, as they do not clash with red. The more intense the red, the more the wallpaper will reflect red back into the room, and if you have other walls that are white, they will feel warmer, which is often seen as an advantage.

Be bold with red accent wallpaper

If you go for red accent wallpaper, don't hesitate to choose a more intense red tone to draw the eye. One bold and trendy style statement is to use red accent wallpaper as a backdrop for white furniture. Red accent wallpaper is an excellent foil for pictures with white frames or white detail. Red is a stylish wallpaper choice that will bring higher levels of energy to your room than most other colours. A strong red accent wallpaper can help you be energetic and alert, and reach higher levels of creativity.
