Wallpaper border

Beautify the room with wallpaper borders

With a border you can decorate any room and provide for a lovely living atmosphere. It is also possible to hang the narrow wallpaper strips without wallpapering the whole wall first. That is why this type of room design is particularly popular with all those who wish to change and visually spice up rooms, apartments, or the staircase quickly and with little effort.

For comprehensive renovations or the implementation of an artistic design concept, it is best to use borders that match the wallpaper of your choice. They are available, perfectly matched to the design, as optional accessories for many wallpaper collections. Or you can complement your favourite wallpaper with a freely selected border - self-adhesive or for fast adhering - all according to your taste.

Borders can be white or colourful, single-coloured or patterned, smooth or structured. They are usually made of high-quality paper or non-woven material, which is true to form and dimensionally stable when processing. The favourable price, the wide range and the simple processing allow you to try to your hearts content and invite you to experiment and combine.

Design options with borders

There is a huge selection of designs and models. Many borders show pictures, designs and graphic arts, flowers, plants, animals, or figures. There are cute, strict, magnificent, and rustic borders, ethnic, abstract, or geometric patterns and thematically linked borders for certain rooms. Among the favourites are kitchen borders with fruit, vegetables, herbs, dishes or motifs from the laid table. Borders for the children’s room frequently show movie characters, comic heroes, fantasy motifs or complex scenes that encourage to play and dream away.

The width of a border varies, depending on the type and size of image, between 5 cm and around half a meter. The borders are usually offered in roles of 5 m or 10 m. Some borders are self-adhesive, others have to be fixed to the wall with wallpaper paste or a special adhesive for borders. This is a quick, and convenient way to get great results and embellish the wall in the blink of an eye.

With subtle borders in grey or muted tones, you can divide the walls, connect different areas ingeniously or even out or balance small design deficiencies and irregularities elegantly. Wallpaper strips or borders with wood or stucco look emphasize special room elements such as doors and windows, open fireplaces, mirrors and pedestals. You can break up and harmonize large areas, frame a wall decoratively or visually divide the entire room.

To the eye, the borders can have a shortening or stretching effect - depending at which height and at which distance you place them. If you live, for example, in a house with high ceilings, you can make the rooms homely with borders at half-height or still further emphasize the spacious living ambience with an elegant border in stucco design on the transition between walls and ceilings. This way, you can underline the character of your home a little or set it specifically in the right light.
