Our 14 favorite wallpaper trends for 2023
David Harris, design director at Andrew Martin explains just how much wallpaper has changed over the years, 'gone are the days of just printing on paper. You can now embellish corks, grass-cloths and silks with pretty much any design. The usage is also bolder and braver. If you have the confidence, there are endless possibilities,'

Wallpaper works just like a piece of art hung proudly on the wall. It can enrich your space with interesting color, shape and pattern, and provide an eye-catching talking point when people first set foot inside a room.
To elevate this artistic connection even further, choose a wallpaper print that shows a unique, artistic scene. As shown by this beautiful mural, Bodegones Room, designed by Patricia Urquiola for Jannelli & Volpi for Altfield , the modern, abstract take on a still life table scene adds a unique intrigue and an artistic statement to this hallway.
2. Add elegant detail with a wallpaper border

Wallpaper borders are back, and they are set to be a big trend for 2023.
Historically, wallpaper borders were used to hide imperfections and tacks on walls, rather than being used for decoration. With a resurgence of borders used in homes in the 1980s, often featuring floral and botanical prints, borders became more decorative rather than practical, and now they're back again, with a variety of stylish and unique prints to choose from.
Above, the Adonis wallpaper border in Mole by Susie Atkinson not only creates a beautiful contrast with the blue painted walls, it elegantly enhances the door and baseboard, as well as complementing the dark wood and brown palette used across the furniture, carpet and lighting.
Atkinson says, 'borders have been used for many years to elevate the simplest of rooms, adding detail and delight in an easy way. They are less of a commitment than wallpapering the whole room but still bring that color and interest to walls, adding an accent to contrast or complement a room. The possibilities with them are endless.

3. Style with stripes

Decorating with stripes will always establish a timeless look, however, over the last few years there has been a huge resurgence in classic, simple patterns, such as stripes and decorating with checks, across interior design industries, from wallpaper to upholstery, rugs and carpet.
Still going strong for 2023, striped wallpaper can create a sophisticated, elegant look in the home. Louisa Tratalos, Colours of Arley founder says, 'stripes have a rich history and go beyond trends within interiors and fashion alike. For 2023, especially, consumers are becoming more considered and conscious with how and where they shop, as well as what they purchase – opting for a more sustainable approach and investing in quality, timeless design pieces. As a result, stripes will continue to grow in popularity and sit firmly as an interior staple, much like the Breton stripe within our wardrobes.'
Using a striped wallpaper can be a great place to begin if you want to introduce a more subtle pattern into your space, rather than a busy print – wonderfully shown above with the uplifting palette of pinks used on this striped design.
4. Add a tactile touch with textured wallpaper

Gone are the days when wallpaper was a one-dimensional piece of paper on the wall. As printing techniques develop, the number of surfaces that can be printed on increase, and the variety of materials used to create wallpaper everchanging.
One of the most comforting wallpaper trends is introducing texture to the walls. Ed O'Donnell, co-founder of Angel O'Donnell says, 'densely patterned wallpapers and fabrics, nubbly wools, brushed fringes – textures will abound in 2023. Anything that beckons us to reach out and touch it, that feels good against our skin, will be top of our list.'
The Synamay Chalk design by Mark Alexander shown above, handcrafted from natural leaf fibers, creates an organic, rustic look that feels simple, natural and beautifully calming.
5. Take wallpaper to the fifth wall

A trend that we have seen more and more of throughout 2022, and that is set to continue well into 2023, is ceiling wallpaper ideas.
Enhancing the fifth wall with wallpaper can make for a dynamic and immersive look. For so long, ceilings have been ignored when it comes to wallpaper and paint, but transforming this surface with interesting visual interest, ceiling paint ideas and pattern can establish a stylish design that feels utterly luxurious,
'A small space is actually the perfect place to be bold and adventurous with paint and wallpaper,' says Lucy Searle, Homes & Gardens' global editor in chief, 'whether it be a small bathroom, walk-in closet or boot room, these areas of our homes are ideal for experimenting with more unique and impactful designs.'
As shown in this striking small bathroom, designed by Beata Heuman , the space has been covered top to bottom in her own cotton linen print design, which is paper backed, so it can be applied just like regular wallpaper.
6. Embrace moody metallics

Dark colors used to be avoided, as often this would be misinterpreted as making a room seem dark and dingy – however, they are making a desired comeback.
However, with an eclectic use of space, the right accent colors, furniture and good lighting, deep royal blues, moody metallics and luxurious emerald greens can establish an opulent effect.
The Forbidden Bloom wallpaper print by Divine Savages , shown above, embodies a beautifully illustrated large-scale print of floral blooms intertwined with sweeping serpents, with the design luxuriously embellished with stunning gold leaf.
Jamie Watkins, co-founder, Divine Savages says, 'architectural details have been embellished using gold leaf for centuries and gilded interiors are certainly having a renaissance. Gold as a color holds a raw, organic connection with the earth, helping to create interiors that are warm, reassuring and uplifting with a decadent, luxurious twist. Our new gold leaf wallpapers evoke the romance of long-standing tradition with a wink to our passion for playful pattern'.
7. Escape with a scenic wall mural

Scenic landscape wall mural ideas are one of the biggest stories in wallpaper trends for 2023 – wonderfully atmospheric and evocative, a stunning wall mural will transform and capture the imagination.
You don’t have to put your artistic nature to the test when it comes to picture walls. There are plenty of wallpapers that are designed to do just that with trompe l’oeil illustrations that can quickly add an extra dimension even in small spaces.
A panoramic mural can not only transport you to another space (figuratively as well as literally!), but by choosing a nature-inspired design, the boundaries between indoors and out can become blurred.
For a relaxing bedroom wallpaper scheme, turn to images of escapism, like this tropical pictorial wallpaper that evokes the memory of faraway shores. Complete the look by choosing furniture, bedding and cushions in earthy ochre and a pinch of ginger for a fully immersive design.
8. Max out with full-scale pattern

Maximalism is an interior design trend that's back in a big way, and we predict that this daring look is here to stay.
In bold contrast to the understated, this living room decor idea reveals the design world’s wild side.
An arresting mix of leopard prints, pleating and patchworks, together with stars, stripes and metallic hides, demonstrates that more can be more.
9. Factor in an abundance of florals

Floral room decor can be adapted to suit any space, whether it’s vintage, retro or contemporary. These new season designs have upped the style stakes and make it easy to work beautiful flowers into your décor.
Start off by thinking about color. The palette you choose will guide your decisions when it comes to choosing floral designs and will act as the basis for pulling your scheme together.
When working floral prints into your home, think about the scale of the flowers in the patterns. Large prints can make small rooms appear even smaller so stick to daintier designs to create an illusion of space.
10. Surround yourself with botanicals

Sustainability and being 'happier at home' is at the forefront of our minds for 2023, and it will only escalate further as time goes on.
An increased awareness of the finitude of our natural resources has led to an increased desire to repair, repurpose and recycle.
Visible repairs are celebrated and emphasized, and durable, natural, and woven materials are championed. Bolder greens are also taking over from the midnight blue bringing in the biophilic trend of wellness through plants and foliage.
'Any reference to bringing the outside in will have an impact on wellbeing with the plant trend that just keeps on growing,' explains Maryanne Cartwright, Design Manager at Graham & Brown .
11. Go for dramatic graphics

This year has seen us all searching for security and structure amid the turbulent times of the last few years, and an escalating need to impose systems of order and control in all facets of life has seen a rise in popularity for more simplified, structured design.
Interiors referencing elemental geometric arrangements, subtle raised relief and monochrome palettes channel the comfort found in pattern and routine.

Craftsmanship and heritage designs can be beautifully celebrated in homes both classic and contemporary.
Shown wonderfully in this master bedroom and master bathroom, both spaces have been decorated in an iconic, green William Morris print, establishing a united and grounding design.
Nostalgic and familiar designs can bring great comfort, and we are more willing to invest in designs that have meaning and have been lovingly created than mass produced products.
13. Create a picture-perfect scheme with wall panels

Panels have been big when it comes to bedroom wallpaper ideas for 2022. It's not overly common to have paneling in a bedroom, but if you live in a period property – or got them built in to add character to a plain space – you have plenty of space to play with wallpaper.
Previously a living room trend, adding a statement paper in slices allows you to go bold with color and pattern without overwhelming the room.
Choosing a natural inspired scheme and colorway keeps things calming, too.
14. Add charm with Chinoiserie

Chinoiserie is another wallpaper trend which has been in and out of fashion for many years. Historically associated with grand country manor homes, this technique has been modernized and updated is a fresh new way.
Characterized by fantastical oriental scenes and sinuous, stylized flower and bird motifs, the Chinoiserie trend has witnessed a surge in popularity in recent years, with today's wallpaper and fabric houses offering a wealth of ornate decorative designs to bring wow-factor to your interior design choices.
What is the most popular wallpaper of all time?
It's hard to pin-point an exact style or pattern that is the most popular wallpaper of all time, as we have been discussing in this piece, so many trends fall in and out of fashion! However, there will always be curtain styles and instantly recognizable patterns that seem to stand the test of time.
From whimsical florals, and botanicals, to stripes and damasks, there are many enduring wallpaper trends that are always popular throughout interior design.
When it comes to choosing wallpaper for your space, it's always worth exploring classic designs as well as the latest trends so you can make the perfect decision for your space that is reflective of your style.

Walls are no longer walls.
Not as we’ve known them. For 2022 the internal structures that surround us – and hold our houses up – become built-in art galleries, passports to remind us of far flung, excitement-filled lands, and mental balms providing a hit of nostalgia, visual soothing, and familiarity. After a tumultuous past year we’re turning to our walls for both relaxing tranquility, and a reminder that there is a whole world waiting for us, even if we can’t quite get there yet.
Which side will you fall on, wallpaper that evokes a sense of calm, or an escapist mindset? Here we explore the five need-to-know 2022 wallpaper moods that will dominate next year's interior design trends, and the experts’ take on them.
What are the wallpaper trends for 2022?
- Wallpapering within panels
- Modern damask prints
- Soft painterly neutrals
- Tiger motifs
- Garden structures
Wallpaper Trend 1: Wallpapering within panels
Introducing, for 2022, the new feature wall: say hello to the wallpapered panel.
The vogue for paneling has had a steady comeback into modern living room trends as we all sought to update our homes over the locked-in period of 2021, and the wallpaper world has responded rather gloriously. Small segments of wallpaper are taking to the wall, divided by three-dimensional panels – one, five, a room’s worth – of all shapes and sizes. This wallpaper trend is all about expression, vibrancy and a celebration of pattern, so feel free to frame the pieces of wallpaper in another layer of patterned paper, or paint the panels in something that harmonizes with the design. Now’s the time to treat yourself to that dream wallpaper design you could never afford – you only need a few meters.

Why will panel framed wallpaper be popular for 2022?
‘We’ve seen wall paneling rise in popularity as the pandemic caused a DIY boom,’ says Abby Hesketh, Color Specialist at Graham & Brown. ‘This trend merges the depth of paneling with the intricacies of wallpaper designs.
Framing wallpaper transforms it from a pattern into a work of art, simply because our brains are used to seeing art pieces in frames.’
‘Incorporating wallpaper into the paneling which has recently risen in popularity feels like a natural progression,’ says Natascha Maksimovic, Founder of Natmaks. ‘I often get very specific commissions for wallpaper set within the paneling; I feel it’s a standalone trend which has opened up a freedom of how to use the wallpaper in the home. Paneling can really enhance the characteristics of pieces of wallpaper.’

Is panel framed wallpaper the feature wall of 2022?
‘The definition of a feature wall is to add detail and personality to a room – wallpaper within the paneling feel like an update, it does that and so much more,’ says Natascha Maksimovic of Natmaks. ‘It also creates warmth, texture, dimension and drama.’ Now that we've been thinking about new ways to embrace maximalism in interior design, this extra layer of pattern within texture feels bang on trend.
‘Absolutely! It’s about time feature walls evolve into something more. Wall panel framing takes the statement of a feature wall and turns it up a notch, creating an oversized piece of wall art,’ says Graham & Brown’s Abby Hesketh. ‘If you lean towards paint over wallpaper, then using panels is a great way to ease into using wallpaper in your home. This look allows you to wallpaper as much or as little of the wall as you like, and is just as effective on one wall as it is on all four.’
How should the paint color for the panels be chosen?
‘Ideally you should choose your wallpaper before your paint color,’ says Graham & Brown’s Abby Hesketh. ‘It’s much easier to find a matching paint color for a wallpaper design than it is to ensure you find a wallpaper design that you both like and that matches a specific paint color. Bold colors are great for creating the art frame effect as the color contrasts the wallpaper design creating the illusion of a framed piece of art and thus a more luxurious feel to the room, although if you prefer a calmer atmosphere though, subtler colors work too.
’
‘Absolutely choose the wallpaper first,’ agrees Natascha Maksimovic of Natmaks. ‘Whether you then fing a color which is also within the design is up to you, but having the wallpaper in hand will help you choose which way to coordinate your living room color ideas. It’s important to know which look you are trying to create – setting the wallpaper within the wall design or making it stand out as a piece of art. A subtle color around a vibrant wallpaper will present it more as art and a standalone piece. Choosing a bolder color, especially if this is also within the design of the wallpaper, can marry the wallpaper and wall, therefore becoming one with the wall and indeed the entire room.’
Wallpaper trend 2: Modern damask prints
The past is a soothing balm, and after 2021, that’s just what our homes need. It doesn’t get more historical than damask, the pattern which decorated the earliest known wallpaper which dates to around 16th century Cambridge. Casting our minds, homes and living room wallpaper ideas back will become a major pastime for decorating lovers come 2022, and it’ll start with the reinvention of damask.
The formal repeat and motifs from nature will remain, while modern making methods will see the addition of bold colors, vivid designs and intricate detailing.

How is damask becoming more modern?
'Damask was a traditionally woven pattern featuring highly stylized floral motifs formed by the contrast between the shiny warp face of the thread and the matt weft face,’ explains Tricia Guild, OBE, Founder & Creative Director of Designers Guild. ‘At Designers Guild, damask has never really gone away. I love to reinvent classical styles – making them feel more contemporary and of the moment. Changing damask’s scale and texture are a few of the wonderful ways of experimenting and updating this iconic style.’
‘Because damask is so identifiable, it’s easy to dramatically deconstruct it while it remains recognizable,’ says Maxine Hall, Director of Blackpop. ‘Our design process mixes technology with mediums such as photography and paint, which lends itself to reworking existing patterns and layering them together – just like a DJ re-mixing old music with the new.
We kept the motif intact and enriched it with a vibrant pallet of colors to pick out and accentuate the decretive details that can be so easy missed in the original two-tone surface.’

Why is damask having a moment for 2022?
‘Damask is a fabulously malleable design that stands the test of time,’ says Maxine Hall, of Blackpop. ‘To me it represents a familiarity and signifies nostalgic grandeur – it’s a kind of historic stabilizer whilst all around us is in flux, so ideal for the upcoming year.
‘Reimagined damasks bring integrity and expression but without the historic stuffiness,’ sums up Tricia Guild of Designers Guild. ‘These new designs should be viewed as damasks for today, rather than simply living today with yesterday’s patterns.’
‘Damask wallpaper designs set the scene, adding a cinematic je ne sais quoi to any space,’ says Maxine Hall, Director of Blackpop. ‘It works wonderfully wrapping a whole room I love be surrounded by an infinitive pattern as it feels so inclusive, or try the a damask wallpapered ceiling, it’s like entering dream land it’s a showstopper! Are we getting more confident, more experimental, bolder and braver for 2022? I think so!’
Wallpaper trend 3: Soft painterly neutrals
The pattern? Large, painterly patches, each one slightly different and marked by its designer’s hand, implying a sense of movement in to these freeform shapes as if they’re convivially slowly moving around each other.
The palette? All of the neutrals and natural shades, effortlessly harmonizing with each other and slipping seamlessly into our beige living room ideas. Pale meets slightly less pale meets a little bit darker, smoothly merging and interacting with each other. This take on neutral wallpaper shows that beige and its friends are anything but boring.

Why are we turning to painterly neutral wallpaper patterns for 2022?
‘Within the latest color trends, there has been a rise in the home being a sanctuary, people want to create interiors that are calming, however they do not want to lose adding their own personality in the space, by using this style you can perfectly achieve both,’ says Clare Leith, Senior Designer at Kirkby Design. ‘Neutrals can act as the backdrop for a space, giving you the freedom to experiment with texture without overpowering the interior.’
‘After so much time spent within the same four walls, we have a new-found enthusiasm for decorating – neutrals provide a safe and easy option for those just starting out on an interior design journey, says Philippe Desart, Managing Director at Arte.
‘There is also a desire to create a warm, comforting retreat at home, a space that’s elegant and sophisticated as well as providing a sanctuary in which to retreat to, boxes which this pattern ticks.’

How do painterly shapes affect a room?
‘Recently a trend for more analogue shapes with a naive feel is developing,’ says Clare Leith of Kirkby Design. ‘Imperfect painterly marks create designs which feel soft and inviting – painterly shapes draw the eye around the room and can help to introduce color in a muted, harmonious way.’
‘Gentle curves, painterly patterns, organic textures and ‘imperfect’ shapes in a design can work to create contrast in a space, providing a softness to the hard straight lines of furniture, door or window frames and picture frames,’ explains Philippe Desart of Arte.
‘Layered neutral living room ideas work beautifully in settings where you want to create a tranquil yet sophisticated interior – these patterns are about appreciating the quieter side of life, that yearning for a calming, cocooning space that celebrates texture and organic forms and surfaces.
’

How does the combination of neutral and painterly shapes feel?
‘I find the visibility of the maker’s hand in a design always adds more depth, and a feeling of comfort and personality in a design scheme,’ Philippe Desart of Arte tells us. ‘Frivolous and irregular patchwork patterns form an organic, handcrafted look which relaxes the eye.’
‘A combination of neutral and painterly shapes can create a feeling of warmth and calm while retaining personality, explains Clare Leith of Kirkby Design. ‘By using a neutral color palette, you can use painterly shapes in a relaxing way which in can in turn transform the interior into a tranquil space with plenty of artistic character.’
‘I would look at the space first – if the room is large and has a lot of wall space, don’t be afraid to decorate the whole room in the same print to create a quiet yet maximalist look,’ advises Kirkby Design’s Clare Leith.
‘If the room is smaller opt for just one wall and decorate the remaining walls in a plain wallcovering, using one of the colors featured in the painterly design as the plain.’
‘The beauty of incorporating painterly neutrals into an interior is their versatility and ability to adapt to any design scheme,’ says Philippe Desart of Arte. ‘Such designs feature a range of warm neutral tones are easy to scheme with other patterns, colors and textures because it acts either as a base to bolder design elements, or as a design statement itself when used in a simpler paired back scheme.’
Wallpaper trend 4: tiger motifs
A symbol of strength and courage, a tiger-inspired wallpaper captures the mood of the moment; 2022 is year for daring design and this iconic jungle cat is a powerful statement in any space,’ enthuses Adam Ellis, Founder of Adam Ellis Studio. ‘Muscular graphic stripes and vivid colors are impossible to ignore, enlivening any room with a sense of movement and hidden depth.
’
‘Aside from 2022 being the Chinese Year of the Tiger, I think we are just ready to have some fun with our interiors,’ says Charlotte O’Reilly, Founder and Head Designer of Charlotte Jade. ‘The past few years have been so different to our normal lives, we are all ready to bring something a bit wild and wonderful into our homes, along with making a powerful statement within our interiors.’
‘We’re all yearning for travel and escapism and perhaps for a sense of empowerment or a feeling of protection – the tiger embodies all of those desires,’ says Philippe Desart, Managing Director of Arte. ‘Without the ability to travel physically, we instead let our minds wander, and the mesmerizing, awe inspiring tiger design delivers a sense of travel in another world or place, or time.’

What is it that makes a tiger wallpaper so alluring?
‘As well as having a wonderful pattern and color that naturally translates into home decoration, tigers hold a sense of intrigue and power that adds drama and theatre to an interior,’ says Philippe Desart, Managing Director of Arte.
‘It’s time to celebrate the tiger motif in a way that would have traditionally been seen on rugs and let them roam.’
‘Tigers have an element of mystery around them. They are absolutely stunning creatures with beautiful natural markings and their presence is powerful – they have authority and the way they carry themselves shows this,’ says Charlotte O’Reilly of Charlotte Jade. ‘We’re ready to celebrate the beauty these animals hold in their realistic form, capturing their posture, personality and power.’

How can tiger patterned wallpapers be used in the home?
‘I would style my ‘Tiger Tiger’ design with gold details and luxurious velvets to pair with the deep navy blue and vibrant golds,’ advises Charlotte O’Reilly of Charlotte Jade. ‘Tigers are all about opulence, and this would create an incredibly rich and opulent atmosphere.’
‘Our ‘Tigris’ pattern is backed with a soft metallic which adds a further dimension to the striking pattern, catching the light beautifully when styled with layered side and wall lighting,’ says Philippe Desart of Arte.
‘The wallpaper’s linen texture works wonderfully alongside other natural finishes such as wood, stone and wool to create a refined and contemporary interior.’

Wallpaper trend 5: Garden structures
We can all agree that what we need in 2022 is some peace. Then where else to start than in our garden, our own little patch of nature away from the stresses and strains of daily life? As nature embeds firmly into the home, it’s our own gardens that are falling into focus, as plants and features that signify safety and familiarity will come to decorate our walls. Knowing how to hang a wallpaper means you can bring the outside in with ease. Patterns and shapes that define a specifically vegetation – the recognizable diamonds of trellises, the glass patterns of traditional greenhouses and pots for plants clarify that we’re in safe, close-to-home garden territory, as well as adding a geometric element to the wall.
With these wallpapers, weeds will never need pulling, insects will never attack and plants will never wilt and you’ll never be far from the back door. The result? Shoulders that instantly drop, green fingers or not.

Why are structures from the garden featuring on nature prints at the moment?
‘Paneling and the art of introducing architectural elements such as curves and arches has been a big trend in interiors for some time and is now expanding to incorporate influences from the garden,’ explains Jane Rockett, Co-founder of Rockett St George. ‘Orangeries, glass greenhouses and trellises filled with climbing roses all create a sense of grandeur that adds an extra layer of magic to the idea of bringing nature inside. Patterns that take influence from these structures are gaining popularity as a way to partner geometric lattice lines and architectural angles with the delicate beauty of familiar flowers, ferns and foliage.
’
‘To be surrounded by nature gives us a sense of calm and wellbeing and adding a framework helps to provide structure and pattern to the wall,’ says Johanna Bright, Head of Design at Osborne & Little. ‘The geometric shapes often found in the garden offer contrast to the natural elements and also a playful change of scale.’

How does bringing the garden indoors affect a room?
‘Natural patterns help introduce a sense of calm and quiet to our interiors and wall murals inspired by the garden not only help bring the outside in, but also help achieve harmony by creating an extension of your garden so that nature flows through your home, inside and out,’ says Jane Rockett, Co-founder of Rockett St George. ‘Garden-inspired wall murals and wallpaper are also wonderful for those with small gardens or no outside space, as these designs will form their own relaxing garden oasis.’
Why are wall murals becoming more popular for 2022?
‘Wall murals are brilliant for creating instant impact in a room and as we’ve grown more comfortable with using bold color and pattern in our homes recently, wallpapers and wall murals have once again become more popular, says Jane Rockett of Rockett St George.
‘As the events of the last couple of years have meant we’re spending more time at home, how our interiors make us feel has become more important than ever. Wall murals have a truly transformative effect and can change the atmosphere of a room in an instant. With appreciation for nature at a deserved all-time high, wall murals of beautiful landscape scenes and architectural garden features are set to reign in 2022.’
‘The evolution of digital technology has really stimulated the trend for immersive, larger-scale repeats which in the past have been exclusive to hand-crafted techniques,’ says Johanna Bright of Osborne & Little, ‘Now they are so much more accessible, and we can explore and recreate hand-painted artwork in large-scale printed designs.’

‘Designs that feature beautiful garden structures look extraordinary in a conservatory or living space that backs onto the garden, with any windows or glass doors perfect for framing the garden to add extra depth to the design,’ advises Jane Rockett of Rockett St George.
‘Another incredible space to embrace a wall mural of this design is a bathroom. While wallpaper in the bathroom is a great way to add interest to the walls without the costly expense of tiles. Murals have the ability to transform your space and create a magical environment that can evoke memories or whisk you away to serene oasis of calm. By adding luxury and a hint of whimsy to your walls, this clever decorative feature creates the perfect combination of style and relaxation.’
Frieda Gormley of House of Hackney explains how to work the best wallpaper trends of 2022
It’s interesting to see the growing momentum of the wallpaper revival, we're seeing the evolution of the wall which is really exciting. It's anti-boredom, pro-craft and about enlivening our homes with spirit, wonder and art – it’s very emotive, and so needed right now.
After being at home for so long and looking deeply at our environments, both aesthetically and in terms of meaning, we've torn up the decorating rulebook.
We’re much more liberated now. Home is so much more of a place than just somewhere to sleep and go to work from, and people are increasingly starting to pick up a paintbrush, get decorating, and be playful with it. Decorating is being pushed further and further.
The wallpaper styles for 2022 are about bringing joy to our homes. At House of Hackney we talk about the joy of wallpaper – wallpaper really can make us happy! And the beauty of it is that it's enjoyed by many, it's transformative to a space and home and ultimately to people’s lives.
The rise of decorative wallpaper has been gaining more and more and more momentum, and the stresses of 2021 have accelerated the new wallpaper trends further. People are becoming very playful with walls, ceilings and surfaces – it’s is a very creative, artistic moment for the wall.
During times of unrest in the world, we tend to return to the pull of nostalgia – with the difficult few years that everyone has had, and the evolution of the home into a place of sanctuary away from the outside world, we’re seeing the revival of the decorative wall.
It's about a return to the past, both from an artisanal point of view, and from a nostalgic point of view.
Damask is now rising in popularity again, an incredibly classic design associated with beautiful historic homes. When you mix its classical heritage with digital printing technology and modern design sentiment, you can bring unlimited color into it, really ramp it up and play with the scale away from the confinements that printing had. Our damask collection with Gainsborough is cinematic with its proportions and color.
It’s about time we found a new feature wall – it's done – and wallpapering within wall panels feels very decorative, referencing Les Arts Décoratifs. It’s clever. Wallpaper is an investment and this is a smart economical way to have a pop of print. It’s a way to get into print, a step towards more pattern as the wallpaper can easily be changed. It looks really beautiful.
The tiger print wallpaper trend is a follow on from the palm trend. Exoticism has a pull at this moment in time in response to our global grounding and lack of travel.
It’s a playful, moody take on a nature print – a lot of decorating trends in 2022 are ultimately about people's connection to nature and bringing it indoors. The full-bodied tiger print is wild, moody and a talking point while also being an easy monochrome scheme.
The growing trend for bringing a classic British garden inside ties into the vogue for decorating with British flora and fauna, and the increasingly wildness of floral patterns. As people spent more time in nature during lockdowns, they discovered the English countryside, forging new connections with nature which they now want to reflect in their homes.
The trend for abstract neutrals I find very interesting. It's minimally decorative, soft, the lines are clean and the palette has got a low color, but there's a very strong beautiful, very refined aesthetic to it. It's easy but still interesting, making me think of craft or pottery with the earthy, natural pigments, and representing a more lo-fi, natural mood that's coming through in interiors.

Every day in the post-industrial world, the ecological component of life is becoming increasingly important, which affects health, mood, general emotional background and performance.
The walls of our home, which make up our "second skin", should provide us with global protection from harmful external factors. And here natural materials and eco-style come to the rescue, which not only remain in trend this season, but will be with us for a long time to come. Psychological comfort will be created by imitations of natural textures, which will give a feeling of closeness to nature and a sense of spiritual harmony. nine0005 The priority remains the ability of interiors to be unobtrusive, not to annoy or annoy. In the foreground - Scandinavian style, minimalism, wabi-sabi, eco, recycle, ethnic style. All this, of course, has an impact on trendy wallpapers in the interior of 2022.
Main wallpaper trends for 2022
The main trends of this year, experts note the following.
Natural. Today, the time has come when natural wallpapers have become the basis of interiors. In addition to the environmental safety of the materials themselves, natural wallpapers attract with their naturalness and textures.
They are made by sticking natural fibers or their weaves onto an environmentally friendly base, thus obtaining natural canvases in the full sense of the word. Today, bamboo and jute wallpapers are popular. Wood veneer, linen, sisal and even plant leaves are growing in popularity. Of course, they all require special care, but bringing nature into the house, and with it peace and harmony, is worth a lot. nine0003
Handmade. Many wallpapers made from natural materials are made by hand. It can be either drawing a design or the process of creating textures. In the past 2021, such wallpapers rose in the popularity rating to the leading positions, and today in 2022 they reached the peak of popularity and became a real trend of the season.
Light and airy. One of the main wallpaper trends of this year is the creation of atmosphere in the interior. It should not be overloaded with complex elements, flashy motives. Everything should be simple and concise, so the wallpaper should be light and airy.
It is better to do it in such a way that a certain amount of understatement remains. Examples are the Scandinavian style or the recycler that has recently come into vogue. nine0003
Return to basics. This is also a fashionable trend today, demonstrating a move away from "industrialization" and a return to simple, understandable and unobtrusive ethnic motifs. Trendy wallpapers in 2022 can be a reflection of the ethnic designs of various cultures. It can be African motifs, Indian, American, English. Colonial style or retro elements are very popular today in interiors, which can be emphasized with appropriate wallpaper. The main principle is recognition and simplicity. Wallpaper should create a mood and a calm environment - without aggression. nine0003
Environmentally friendly. In recent years, wallpaper environmental issues have grown from a fashion trend to the norm. Why choose canvases made with harsh chemicals that release harmful substances into the living space when there is a safe alternative? It can be textile wallpaper made from natural fibers, paper or non-woven, produced using water-based paints, hypoallergenic fabrics specially produced for children's rooms.
The choice is huge, and the main principle is safety. nine0003
Flora and fauna. How pleasant it is to calm down and fall asleep among the patterns of foliage, graceful flowers, delicate leaves! This is another one of the trendy wallpaper trends of 2022. Any canvases with flora and fauna today are very fashionable. These can be paintings: palm branches, lush flower arrangements, jungle thickets or even entire panels that can serve as an accent wall.
Paintings in the style of toile de jouis or chinoiserie deserve special attention. These are old styles that have received a new birth, which have recently been used by French decorators, and have migrated to us since last year. Toile de jouis - this is how in the old days they called cotton fabric with a printed pattern of pastoral scenes with forest animals, shepherd boys, ladies resting in nature, hunters on horseback. And now the toile de juy is a canvas for walls on paper or non-woven with recognizable idealistic patterns.
The second direction is chinoiserie. In fact, this style represents Chinese motifs in a European interpretation: plum blossoms, birds of paradise, outlandish plants, pagodas. In such canvases, the main values are the recognizability of drawings and their rhythm, which soothes and relaxes. nine0003
Geometry. The fashion for geometric patterns has smoothly flowed from 2021 to 2022. Experts believe that the secrets of the popularity of geometry in wallpaper patterns are the ability to radically change the “mood” of a separate room, which is extremely important for those who work at home today. It is enough to decorate one room with wallpaper with a geometric pattern, and immediately the interior and the internal state of a person will be balanced. In this regard, there is only one advice - do not be afraid of cardinal and non-standard decisions. nine0003

The main thing is to create an atmosphere of relaxation from the hustle and bustle without a rigid reference to the classics. Fabric trends
Until quite recently, the industry did not indulge in the choice of wallpaper materials, and this is despite the fact that wallpaper has been known for a long time.
In recent years, the situation has changed dramatically. There are so many wallpaper options that fashion trends have appeared in the materials of the canvases themselves. Which of them are the most fashionable in 2022?
Textile wall coverings. This year, designers advise not to be afraid of textile wallpapers, even though they require careful maintenance. These wallpapers can be a continuation of "naturalness". The best options are linen, cotton, silk. On the one hand, such canvases are a return to the old traditions of wall decoration, and on the other hand, they are, as they say, “the latest fashion”. nine0003
Paper or non-woven wallpaper. Today, these materials are the epitome of sustainability, which, as you already know, is a fashion trend in 2022.
Reliable imitations of natural textures. Another wallpaper trend for 2022. Moreover, leading designers say that, judging by the new collections of famous brands, such wallpapers, "masking" different species, such as marble, cedar wood or textured fabric, will become favorites this year.
Among the hottest hits can be noted canvases with a terrazzo pattern. The secrets lie in the high decorativeness, which is achieved by drawing or obtaining texture by pressing the top layer, such as vinyl. nine0003
Trends. Wallpaper color
The desire to get trendy wallpapers 2022 at any cost can lead to a critical mistake if color is not taken into account. It must be understood that the colors of the wallpaper also have their own fashion, and this fact must be taken into account without fail. At the same time, one must understand that designers do not impose trends in wallpaper colors. They themselves are installed depending on the needs of people.
In one of her interviews, the author of the first Russian trend book, Zoya Tee, said that today, when there are continuous problems around us, the living space of a house or apartment should become a place where it is calm and comfortable. Where can you come and relax.
That is why psychological aspects are important when choosing a wallpaper color. nine0005
What colors are in demand today?
Space blue. This is a dark blue color that, despite its intensity, allows you to relax almost instantly.
Blackberry. Shades of blue, violet, lilac have a calming effect, therefore they are in demand. It can be blueberry, blackberry, cranberry, cranberry. On the one hand, they are beautiful and rich, and on the other hand, they resemble berries, and therefore nature. nine0003
Endless nude. Where would we be without it, without pastel pink, green, blue shades, which are currently in great demand?
Mustard, honey and sun. Accent bright colors that embody warmth and happiness.
Night sky and sea greens. Deep shades that are in demand in "natural" interiors.
Chocolate Paradise. "Sweet" chocolate colors are in trend today, ranging from milky white to deep cinnamon.
nine0003
Complex green. Somehow it so happened that khaki is back in fashion. It is difficult to say what kind of reincarnation this is, but in 2022, wallpapers of color shades close to khaki are in trend.
Black. The color of refined style and respectability, which is always in fashion.
Dynamic contrasts. Designers advise using color contrasts that are fashionable today in interior design. For example, you can stick yellow wallpaper on one wall, and decorate the other in bright red. The effect is amazing. The main thing in this case is to take into account the rule of mixing colors along the color wheel in order to obtain a harmonious interior. nine0003
Room trends
Living room. This is a true paradise for lovers of minimalism. This room should be minimally occupied by furniture placed along the walls. It is then that the living room will be filled with air, and, while receiving guests, it will be possible to enjoy the atmosphere of pleasant communication.
If the walls are minimally occupied by pieces of furniture, then there are ample opportunities for experimenting with prints and textures. Feel free to choose a rich design, such as flora, geometry, ethnic style. Any solution will be relevant, and if you think that the saturation is too much, then dilute it with companion background wallpapers. nine0228
Bedroom. "Place of power" in any apartment or house.
Focus on texture and color! The texture affects the perception of design no less than color, and to create a mood of relaxation, the texture, for example, of textiles will help maintain the atmosphere of relaxation.
Child. The main thing in the room where the child is located is the safety of materials! We strive to give our children the best, and if we talk about environmental friendliness and hypoallergenicity, then you should pay attention to paper and non-woven wallpapers.
nine0003
In order to "extend the life" of the interior of the children's room as much as possible, choose designs that will be relevant for more than one year, taking into account the age of the child. It is important to strike a balance and let the child enjoy the happy moments of childhood. If the kid is involved in the choice of wall coverings, please him and let him express himself, since he will live in this interior. Our range includes wallpaper-coloring. A child can draw on them, getting to know the world and creating their own interior. nine0228
Kitchen. The main trend for the kitchen is to make the impractical practical.
Often, when choosing wallpapers for the kitchen, we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to use natural textiles or natural fibers, such as, for example, sisal, jute or abaca, because this is not practical. Go for the trick - imitate natural materials. You have in your arsenal many options for wall coverings made of vandal-resistant vinyl, the texture of which faithfully imitates natural materials.
nine0228
Corridor. The interior of the corridor is a place for experiments! Most often, we devote the least attention to this room, but in vain.
Zoffany Kensington Walk
In fact, the corridor is the face of our house. There are two ways to go about it. The first is to make an accent wall, unless, of course, the area and configuration of the room allow. The second is to highlight the corridor with color and emphasize it with texture. Both ways are effective trend solutions. nine0005

Today you can find dozens of wallpapers in all price segments and for any task. Now the trend is environmental friendliness - consider this when choosing a material.
Which sheets are suitable:
- Paper. Inexpensive and basic option for budget repairs. The main advantages are low price and complete environmental friendliness, so they are suitable for bedrooms and children's rooms. Of the minuses, this is not the most durable material that really does not like moisture, so it is better to choose a different type of coating for a kitchen or hallway.
- Vinyl. More durable and practical compared to the previous ones, they cost a little more.
They consist of two layers with a base of interlining or paper. The top layer is made of foamed or smooth vinyl. If you need to design a wet area, choose the second option - it does not allow moisture to pass through. Foamed vinyl has good breathability. nine0321 - Non-woven. They are made from compressed cellulose fibers, thanks to which they look like paper. But, unlike them, they are much stronger and are not afraid of moisture. They can be washed and dyed.
- Textile - expensive and capricious in care, but very elegant and beautiful fabrics. They consist of several layers: the base is paper, then comes the fabric. Textile covers collect a lot of dust, so you have to clean them regularly, and they are not suitable for wet areas. This is a beautiful option for a living room, bedroom, study or walk-through corridor. nine0321
- Glass fiber is a modern material that is made from durable glass threads. The coating is anti-vandal, durable and moisture resistant. It will not grow mold or fungus.
They are produced for painting, so you will not find ready-made patterns - but you can draw them yourself. - Liquid is a novelty in the world of finishing materials, which is steadily gaining popularity. The coating is available in the form of a mixture and the texture is more like plaster than classic wallpaper. In terms of technical characteristics, it is similar to fiberglass: it lasts a long time, is not afraid of moisture, and definitely will not become a breeding ground for fungus. And it is also made for painting, so you can choose any color and, if you wish, make an artistic painting on the walls. nine0321

Consider the brightest and most current wallpaper trends in 2022 with a photo in the interior.
Gradient
Social networks of designer Zhenya Zhdanova
This coloring has been confidently among the trends for several years, and it can be safely included in the list of 2022. A gradient is a smooth transition from one color to another, which looks very nice on the walls.
These can be both contrasting shades (yellow and blue, purple and red, black and white, etc.), as well as different tones of the same color: for example, from dark green to light or from mother-of-pearl to anthracite gray. nine0003
Gradient finishes are good because they look unusual, but not too flashy, so they are suitable for modern minimalist interiors. The color transition itself can be either almost imperceptible, or in the form of blurry stripes or, for example, large spots. Choose a design based on what visual effect you want to achieve. For example, vertical lines will make the room a little higher, horizontal lines will “push apart” the walls, diagonal ones will add dynamics to the space.

- Small flowers - suitable for romantic and delicate interiors in neoclassical, English or French style.

This technique looks especially impressive in combination with a dark rich palette.
- Fruits and berries - "edible" ornaments are best suited for the kitchen and dining room in an apartment or country house.
- Greenery - not only flowers belong to the floristic theme. It can also be laconic semi-abstract wallpaper with a pattern of green twigs, leaves, needles, etc. nine0321

East
Exotic fashion is unlikely to disappear in the near future, and oriental themes are especially popular in interior design. Particularly Japan and China.
Social media studio MINDTHEGAP International
Oriental wallpaper is a non-trivial and complex solution that imposes a certain responsibility. To fit them into the environment, you need to take into account every little thing: colors, combination with other finishes, furniture design, decor. The room should not look like a hall of an ethnographic museum, while it is important that the walls decorated “under the East” do not look foreign in the interior. The easiest way is to add some decor with similar themed ornaments or in the same style, diluting it with neutral decorations or furniture. nine0003
When choosing an oriental design, pay attention to:
- A large plot print that does not repeat itself, but fills the entire surface like a painting.
- Images of cherry blossoms and other native plants.
- Chinoiserie - various stylized Chinese ornaments.

From current options, consider:
- Exotic - tigers, jaguars, panthers, monkeys, giraffes, etc. A great option for an accent wall in a living room or creative workshop. It is best to complement such canvases with leather furniture, carpets, fur and wooden decor.
- Birds - from cockatoo parrots to a flock of cranes and graceful hummingbirds. Tropical theme will fit well in the dining room or kitchen, more restrained - in the bedroom. nine0321
- Marine theme - fish, jellyfish, whales and other inhabitants of the underwater world will look beautiful not only in the bathroom, but also, for example, in the living room.
- Children's drawings - cute animals and birds on the walls will delight both girls and boys.
You can use photo wallpaper to highlight one side of the room (for example, the playroom or the wall behind the bed) or choose a laconic stylized print.

Metallic
Canvases with a metallic effect will help make a neutral interior more textured and interesting.
Social networks of designer Zhenya Zhdanova
A light sheen will enliven a restrained palette (especially if it is based on gray), accentuate furniture and large decor. Typically, such models are produced in monochrome colors, most often black or graphite. To prevent dark walls from looking too gloomy, balance them with light details: floors, white ceilings, furniture and textiles.
Another variant of the coating with a metallic effect is gold-plated threads on a plain background. nine0003

This category includes sketches, pencil sketches, graphics, murals, engravings and toiles. Most often, such drawings are made in black and white, it can also be a sepia effect. If the pattern is repetitive and non-contrasting, you can paste over the entire room with wallpaper. If it is an active and large plot print, use it as an accent. Combine with minimalist finishes and simple furniture in natural tones: black, gray, brown, white. nine0008
The general direction of modern design speaks about what other wallpapers are currently in trend. First of all, this is a focus on minimalism, and it implies the absence of ornaments.
Design: Alina Chapanidi. Photo: Mikhail Chekalov. Style: Kati Klee
Therefore, simple plain wallpaper is more relevant than ever. But if smooth walls in a single shade seem too boring to you, they can be beaten with:
- Pronounced texture — voluminous threads on textile canvases do not ripple in the eyes and do not violate the integrity of a calm monochrome interior, but look very interesting upon closer examination. nine0321
- Imitation textures - wood, stone, cement, metal, marble, brickwork and even tiles.

Geometry
Geometric pattern is an ageless classic that will always remain relevant. The main advantage of this print is the ability to visually change the proportions of the room. nine0003
Social networks of designer Zhenya Zhdanova
Stripes do this especially well: vertical ones will visually raise the ceiling, horizontal ones will make a narrow wall appear wider, diagonal ones will make the space look larger.
In addition to classic prints (polka dots, stripes, checks), the interior will look stylish:
- Patterns with optical effects, especially 3D.
- Complex geometry. nine0320 Drawings based on hexagons and octagons.
- Stylized variants of basic geometric ornaments.
