Wow Wallpaper Hanging

Did you know that wallpaper in powder rooms looks pretty darn sensational?

Powder rooms and bathrooms might be small areas but they can certainly deliver the “wow factor” when they are decked out in wallpaper.

Wallpapering bathrooms and powder rooms is becoming increasingly popular.Wallpaper can make a big impact in any room and  this is particularly true for the smallest room in  the house. You can afford to take a risk in a powder room, be a bit bold and try something you might not necessarily try in any other room in the house.

It’s also the perfect way to “wow” your guests!

Wallpaper has the advantage of supplying beautiful images, designs and colour which is superior to just painting or adding tiles.Combining the right wallpaper with the right tile will definitely create the “wow factor” in your bathroom.

Powder rooms are generally small which means it won’t take much wallpaper to cover them and create a stunning effect. Powder rooms are the one room where you can use high style for big impact in a small space.

Our clients are always looking for ways to individualise their spaces and create a look that is unique to them. Wallpaper will do just that.

If you’re really wanting a very elegant powder room then wallpaper will deliver. It’s easy to get that “Hollywood Glamour” style by using wallpaper.

Also with powder rooms it’s best to wallpaper every wall unlike other areas where one feature wall would perhaps be enough. Being such a small room, the powder room needs the whole space to be covered.

You would be forgiven for thinking that it would be easy to wallpaper this small room yourself.However wallpapering a tiny room can be a bit complicated. It’s important to take pattern repeat into consideration but also wallpapering tight corners and behind toilets, not as easy as you’d think.

Below we have included a few of our recent powder room wallpaper installations that all look amazing with the addition of wallpaper.

Wallpaper Feature Wall In Hotel Foyer

We are now seeing a lot of new homes being built incorporating wallpaper into the overall interior design. When choosing paint colours a lot of people want something a little extra to create the “wow factor” especially when first walking through the front door. Wallpaper can make an immediate first impression in an entry and then explode into the living area to keep the interest going.

Home renovations in Brisbane are popular and even apartment renovations. This is where we see our clients use wallpaper to great effect. When renovating we all want to create a look that is eye catching and appealing. We can do that with new kitchens, bathrooms, tiles, flooring, lighting and furniture but where the real “wow effect” comes in is in the colour. While neutral colour palettes are still high on everyone’s list, the bland minimalist stark look is not. That is where just one strategically placed feature wall comes in using wallpaper of course.

As wallpaper installers on the Gold Coast we hang a variety of wallpapers many being for commercial businesses.

There is a big difference in commercial wallpapers compared to your average standard wallpaper. Commercial wallpapers have to be heavy duty to stand up to more than usual wear and tear. They are usually vinyl as well which makes them the perfect wallcovering for hotels, office buildings, hospitals and schools.

Installing commercial wallpaper requires an experienced wallpaper installer as the size of the sheets can be up to three times the width of a standard roll. They also in a lot of cases need to be double cut and trimmed and possibly reverse hung.

Just before Christmas we finished a wallpaper installation at the Wattle Hotel on the Gold Coast. They chose specific walls of the gaming room to be covered with a vinyl commercial grade wallpaper that featured a subtle square pattern in a neutral colour.

We have included some before and after photos below.

We are professional wallpaper installers on the Gold Coast and Brisbane. We loved installing this beautiful wallpaper from Emily Ziz Style Studio which was the perfect choice to create a relaxing beach side feel to this Gold Coast apartment.

This home already had amazing views of Burleigh beach and a lovely beach side vibe but lacked that something different to set it apart from the rest. That’s where this tranquil watercolour wallpaper that also has a tie dye effect came into play. Reminiscent of the cool ocean waves from the beach below this wallpaper almost looks like waves rolling into shore complete with white foam. Combining dark inky blue with cool aqua and white gives this wallpaper a tranquil yet vibrant feel.

The owners teamed this gorgeous wallpaper called “Blue Invert” with a natural sisal floor covering to create the perfect beach look.

Below are some before and after photos:

We are wallpaper installers in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We recently installed a beautiful wallpaper from Netherlands based designer Ellie Cashman in an apartment in the woolstore precinct at Teneriffe in Brisbane.

Teneriffe was once an important wool trading suburb with the first wool store built in 1909 and another 12 wool stores added to that from 1915 to the 1950’s. These large buildings were built as a testament to our successful commercial wool industry and were designed at the time by well known architects.

Shabby chic is popular in interior design due to taking aged furniture, teaming it up with something new and creating a fresh look. Furniture is chosen for it’s aged appearance and signs of distress, often heavily painted over the years showing older layers underneath. Great lengths are taken to create this aged look with new pieces of furniture.

Fabric and patterns play a big part in this style and all combine to create a cottage chic, beach cottage, french country type look. Everything from cushions, linens, lamps, chandeliers, crockery and paintings all go hand in hand in creating a shabby chic look. It’s a fun and satisfying way to recycle old items and bring them to life again. There are no hard and fast rules but the end result should be soft, romantic and fresh.

Wallpaper can be a fantastic backdrop to this beautiful style. White, soft neutrals, sky blue, rose pink and beige are all perfect colours for a shabby chic look.

Flamingo wallpaper is the perfect choice to create a feeling of tropical happiness. When we think flamingos we think Florida, balmy tropics and magnificent sunsets.

Wallpaper is the one thing that can create a look or invoke an atmosphere into a space like nothing else can. So why settle for a boring plain wallpaper when you can have some fun and make a statement.

Flamingos are starting to pop up everywhere but no better place than your walls.

Below we have a few different flamingo wallpapers but the pink flamingo wallpaper by Albany is definitely our favourite.

Albany – Albany House Vinyls Collection – Flamingos

This pink flamingo wallpaper from Albany is divine. It’s a raised textured vinyl so it’s hard wearing and features extravagant pink flamingos. It’s shown below in shades of pink, peach and black and also comes in a silvery grey/white version.
We recently installed the parrot wallpaper from Albany. It’s in the same collection as the Flamingo design. If you visit our parrot wallpaper page you can see the kind of detail and texture that this vinyl wallpaper has up close. It really is stunning!

Pink wallpaper can be soft and soothing or vibrant and bright. One thing for sure pink is a colour that will make you smile.

Pink is a colour that invokes a warm romantic feel or a fashionable glamorous vibe. It all depends on the shade of pink and the design.
Pink is very feminine but can also be very bold and daring, so there really is a pretty in pink style that will suit everyone.

For a sophisticated look try a daring fuchsia set against a black background or a luxurious pink damask wallpaper. For a girl’s bedroom a candy pink, deep blush or powder puff pink would all give a girly look. Many boutiques and cosmetic salons use pink pattern wallpaper to create a feminine and inviting atmosphere for their business. Pale pink is soft and subtle for a calming effect in a babies room.

There is such a wide variety of pink wallcoverings for walls, everything from bold designs with strong pinks, glamorous damasks in either traditional or contemporary designs, happy and bright stripes and soft pale pink children’s designs.

We show a variety of different pink papers below to get your creative juices flowing.
