The key to great wall ideas is to choose the right combination of color, light and texture, taking into account the complex effect of these variables. Adding texture to walls can give a room richness and depth. One suggestion which is simple but gives great visual impact is plaster, trowelled or stucco. Stucco swirls are not easily achieved by the non-professional, but the effect is a dream on expanses of wall and a perfect backdrop to sophisticated texture and color.
Textures on walls can be obtained from natural materials like stone. Stone-clad walls are making a come-back but instead of a single texture, marry varied textures. One way is the combination of polished, rough and grooved granite. The grains of a pebblewash finish contrast with the smooth furniture surfaces to add unusual definition to the room.
Plain colors may look dull and boring for sometime. You can create focal points in your home and make it look attractive and interesting by the use of patterns and textures, while maintaining the harmony and synchronization in your home décor. There are unlimited choices of textures and patterns for you to brood upon and choosing them and arranging them in an inviting manner, is not so easy a task, as it may seem at the first instance. Textures and patterns play an important role in determining the style of decorating the home.
Your environment limits your choices while every individual may have different preferences too. However, here are a few key points to keep in mind while selecting the right texture and pattern or their combinations for your home that you can use to create illusions of seemingly changed proportion of rooms, climatic conditions and overall mood of the room.
