A touch of blue in the kitchen
The color of the moment? Blue, of course. As a small touch or a total look, it breathes a little very trendy air in the kitchen.
Half exotic, half rustic, the print of the Great Ormond Street wallpaper by Little Greene is a sure bet. Perfect for reviving a rustic-inspired kitchen, it will also give life to a contemporary kitchen. As for the colors, it goes of course perfectly with blue and green. It also gives a nice relief to a white and wood kitchen, as well as to the timeless black kitchen.
As trendy as it is poetic, Koziel’s blue sky wallpaper! Ideal in a Scandinavian kitchen, it is never as crisp as when it is quirky. We therefore dare this motif with lightness in more unexpected environments, for example in an industrial kitchen.
The other essential color is red. That’s good: this color goes wonderfully with blue. Sandberg offers its two trendy colors in soft shades, enhanced by a note of gray. We love this floral print that goes as well with a chic country kitchen as with a more contemporary decor.
Specialist in trompe-l’oeil patterns, Koziel signs a very beautiful wallpaper version of earthenware tiles. We love the intense patina look. This wallpaper works particularly well in dark environments: black kitchen and wood or industrial atmosphere.
This wallpaper spotted at Harlequin combines an elegant blue and a vague pattern of beautiful simplicity. We love it in a sophisticated decor – between lacquered facades and a mineral touch of marble – to add a touch of softness. We love it in a Nordic-inspired atmosphere.
Safe values
Tropical trend, oriental atmosphere or retro atmosphere: are you in love? No need to completely revamp the kitchen: the wallpaper takes care of everything.
Sandberg offers a tropical print wallpaper in a version designed specifically for water features. This trendy pattern is also available in a well-found format. If you can dress up a section of the kitchen wall, it will also have a maximum effect on a small area.
Impossible to resist the freshness and delicacy of the Gingko Light wallpaper by Sandberg! Inspired by Japanese decoration, this pattern is particularly well found if you have fallen for a kitchen with concrete-look facades. It will also go wonderfully with a rustic-inspired kitchen.
With Lustro, Graham & Brown is seizing on one of the great trends of the moment in the kitchen: zellige-style tiling. We particularly like it in this bright green variation. This trendy wallpaper adapts to any decor. If we like it with wood, it will also have its effect in a kitchen that gives pride of place to brushed stainless steel.
A wallpaper that makes an impact
The inescapable trend is mineral wallcovering. And that goes for cooking too! Here’s a good thing: wallpaper is very effective at imitating stone … and many other materials!
Ideal for giving character to the kitchen, this smooth gray concrete effect wallpaper by Koziel gives the room a complete makeover. We love the choice of this dark shade. You can play daring, by associating it with a black kitchen, or prefer a beige for a very soft finish. This deep gray is particularly well-suited to make a red kitchen sparkle. It will also go wonderfully with a fresh color, such as sage green or celadon green.
The White Marble wallpaper spotted at Kitchen Wallpaper? A sure bet! This marble pattern is ideal for warming up a white kitchen or for creating a graphic effect that will brighten up a black kitchen. It also works with all colors. We particularly like it in association with contemporary and very refined kitchen furniture, even minimalist.
The trend that is emerging? The semi-precious stone effect wallcovering. Of course, you have to dare! But with Agate wallpaper, your kitchen decor will be like no other. Be careful, however: this print is demanding. The easiest way is of course to associate it with green and dare the golden finishes – preferably matte. For a wiser look, you can choose the very trendy white taps, always with a matte finish.
It’s been several seasons since terrazzo has made a big comeback in our interiors, and it remains more trendy than ever. We therefore fall for the Granito wallpaper spotted at Kitchen Wall! It’s very simple: it harmonizes almost with all colors … and most styles of decoration, to which it will add a delicious little retro touch!
What you need to know to adopt a trendy wallpaper in the kitchen
Advances in technology have made it possible to develop wallpapers that are robust, resistant to moisture, and easy to clean. Be careful, however, not to give in to a risky choice. The wallpapers designed for the kitchen are treated specifically to withstand the very special conditions in this room. We therefore forget the untimely favorites, and we make our choice in a range “kitchen”.
Be careful, moreover, if you plan to dress the credenza: certain areas such as the sink and the hob are still more delicate. If you absolutely want to put wallpaper in these risky areas, adopt a simple trick: put a glass plate that will protect your wallpaper.
