It’s a new month and in August, we’re looking at designer wallpaper to really create a “wow” factor within the interior space. The dining room may not get as much love as areas such as bedrooms and living rooms, but it’s still an excellent place to use wallpaper because it acts as a communal or shared space.

When creating a high-end look for your dining room, focus on establishing a specific mood or emotion. Establishing this mood can be done through using specific colors and/or patterns. Lighter colors tend to make the space feel more open and inviting whereas darker colors are mysterious and elegant (click here to read our previous article on how color can affect our mood).

From fancy, classic looks to contemporary aesthetics, here are some options for your next design project!

Ultra Modern Dining Room Wallpaper

Retro Geometric Fishbone Wallpaper Navy and White R4996

For the contemporary dining space, geometric patterns are what we’re turning to first. This fishbone design has an energetic look with its strong diagonal lines, which creates a sense of movement that will catch your guest’s attention. We also like how the lines aren’t uniform but are thickest in the middle. This creates an added layer of visual interest.

Using soft pastel colors that make it stand out from more neutral tones, the mint green works well with the faded taupe. The cool green is not one we see often, and using out-of-the-box tones can be one way to make a space feel more modern. The contrast between the different colors results in a more interesting interior design choice.

Modern Geometric Marble Wallpaper Pastel Blue R4811

Sticking with a cool color palette, this light blue wallpaper also features geometric patterning overlaid on a background with a subtle marble/watercolor effect. The combination of the two creates a high-end, modern look that is perfect for any contemporary dining room. Toeing the line between traditional and modern, the stately appearance truly gives this design a grand aesthetic but, as usual, geometric designs help give it an updated or contemporary look.

With its detailed look, you can even use this designer wallpaper to create a feature wall in your dining room. This would serve to highlight one particular area within the space while establishing a trendy look.

Historical and Traditional Dining Room Wallpaper

Looking to create a fancy, classy look for your dining room? Using wallpaper with a more traditional look can do just that. The historical aesthetic conveys a sense of grandeur and designer wallpaper styles such as the one above can really help in pulling the interior design together. The tiled conveys a uniformed, structured look that is truly sophisticated.

Shown in a white/grey color scheme, the tiled floral pattern features tiny details that add a lot of character to the space. It also appears slightly “faded,” making it seem aged. For those who want a sense of history in their dining room, this is the perfect choice!

One of the top wallpaper trends for 2017 is the use of pastel colors. We’re seeing so many new patterns that using these soft colors. Not only are they easy to use, but they’re quite flexible as well and great for incorporating into your room’s current color palette.
