You do not need to rely on expensive decorations to make a room more elegant. In fact, the most expensive ornaments can make a room look unpleasant if not designed correctly or if mismatched with the rest of the room.
Elegance and style can be achieved even with small details and furnishings. If you’re pressed for time but still want to improve your room’s appeal, you may still do so by focusing on your walls. Here are some ways you can do it.
Decorative Moulding
Adding some decorative wood trim moulding brings beautiful detail to the room. It is meant to cover the edges of the wall, ceiling, and floor. While it can be used to conceal the edges which may appear unsightly, it can also add an understated but elegant touch.
Mouldings come in many styles, each of which complements the room in its own way in shape, silhouette, and purpose. To find out which best suits your home, check out this guide to see which style you like best.
Wallpaper
Depending on the design, wallpaper can bring a specific type of character that simple coats of paint cannot. It is hard not to notice the wallpaper when you enter a room, so it is essential to choose one that matches the furniture.
There’s no one style of wallpaper that can promise elegance; it only complements the room. How it works will depend on how well it matches with the rest of the room. For those afraid of choosing bold colours and designs, go for understated elegance and start with simple, neutral-coloured wallpaper with symmetric designs.
Choose a wallpaper design that blends with the floor and ceiling to avoid clashing colours that are unpleasant to the eye. One way of avoiding this is to use moulding along the area where the wallpaper meets the floor and ceiling. This provides a form of transition that can help tie the room together.
Complementary Wall Furnishings
Elle Decor recommends installing art pieces, textures, and other furnishings that complement the rest of the room. These can neutral-coloured art pieces that allow brightly-colored ornaments on a table to serve as a focal point of the room. They can also be a textured wall artwork harmonizing with a smooth background.
Decorating and designing a room is not a one-size-fits-all scenario. To create an elegant atmosphere, one can add small details that will come together to provide a simple but classy appeal.
