Wallpaper guidance for rooms from Michigan State College
Home furnishing experts advise choosing plain or near plain papers with gray tones for rooms to create a pleasant backdrop. Avoid realistic floral or knot patterns that complicate furniture arrangement, and prefer vertical stripes to give a sense of higher walls. In hallways, brighter designs may be acceptable, but colors should stay duller than the furnishings. Borders are usually unnecessary and should not draw attention.
