Small spaces in a home or business can be challenging to decorate. Unlike larger areas with plenty of square footage for décor, a small space can feel cluttered after just one or two small decorations. However, digital wall coverings offer a useful and accessible option for completely transforming a small space while maintaining full control over the impression it gives.
Small spaces require some strategy to convey the right message without creating a sense of overwhelm. Digital wall coverings offer numerous benefits for this use that other decoration options do not.
Here are some reasons to use wall coverings instead of other options, such as paint, for your small spaces, nooks, and side rooms.
Understanding the Potential of Digital Wall Coverings
Digital wall coverings are a customizable option for redecorating. They allow home or business owners to decide which colors, patterns, shapes, and images are displayed; from high-fidelity recreations of famous paintings to a pattern that can only be found on the matching chaise lounge in your drawing room, digital wall coverings can recreate anything your imagination can conjure. Thus, they can be a powerful tool for transforming a small space.
The Benefits of Wall Coverings in Small Spaces
One of the biggest challenges of small spaces is that they can feel overwhelming if they are overdecorated, but leaving them plain makes them feel bland and less desirable. Wall coverings can address these difficulties in a few different ways.
Change the perception of the space
When a room is small, there is often nothing the owner can do to physically change the size of the space. However, digital wall coverings can reinvent the perception of the space, making it seem larger or smaller. For those wanting to open up the room, consider light-colored wall coverings with structured patterns, such as tall bamboo stalks or wide rows of colored patterns.
Keep the wall coverings slightly darker than the ceiling (which often ends up being white or off-white for this purpose). Together, these elements can make a small space feel much larger than it truly is. Add a mirror or two for added breadth.
Alternatively, those seeking to embrace the small size of the room to create a cozy retreat should consider rich, darker colors. The deep blues of the ocean or even striking reds will make a space seem heavier, but this can be ideal for relaxation rooms.
Avoid overbuying
One major annoyance with decorations for small spaces is overbuying. It can be difficult to acquire décor that fits into the small space, meaning home or business owners waste money buying more paint or wallpaper than they need or can use.
Digital wall coverings are customizable not only in design but also in size. This means you save money by only buying what is required to complete your project — and you don’t have to store the excess for later.
Add textures without big renovations
Small rooms can be loud, and it all comes down to how they reflect sound. Smooth walls encasing a tiny space can serve as an echo chamber, but digital wall coverings can address this issue, too.
Wall coverings can be customized to feature textures ranging from small beads and divots to brick-like surfaces. This grants access to big aesthetic changes without needing to tear down walls, and the room will be quieter and more comfortable as a result.
Create order with zones
One strategy for bringing order out of the chaos of a small room is to create zones. Consider how much more organized a small space might appear if one wall were adorned with a different pattern or design than the others, creating a focal element that draws the eye and brings the space together.
Digital wall coverings serve this purpose well, allowing decorators to choose a highlight color or pattern and custom-fit it to one wall or nook. This small change can be all it takes to tie the space together and make it seem more approachable.
