Wall Textures-2....

Working with brick & stone structures are difficult as there is lot of design aspect which one needs to follow... If you do not have the flair to understand that, people can take you for a ride... But you don't need the flair to understand... If you are just passionate about doing up your home in your own ways then getting involved is the first thing...

Call for an expert & tell them EXACTLY what you want & what is there in your mind... Don't let them take decisions for the same... as it is your space & your heart would be living in that house. Only your personal touch can make it your home...

So talking about texture... you can have paint effects also as textures... changes in paint colours as per the walls or do a combination with paint & a wall paper...!!!

Some textures can be....
This is a wall effect that is created...
again here if you see one wall is textured by giving those uneven effect...
with bright paint colours the effect of a rough wall... 
 Green Texture....
  Effect with cement & paint... just giving the wall a rough look...
The photos of textures I have picked from the net... There are many many textures which can be worked upon.
You can give them your own ideas too... It all depends on what is the look you want to give to your home & whether your home can blend in these effects too :)


Textures on white & light coloured walls gives a very unique & profound look... If you can maintain whites go for this...
 

  This texture can also be created by tiles as you get these tiles... but when done with white cement the effect is great...!!!

Again work out your costs & then start looking for how to get start the same...!!!


There are wall paintings also that can be done to create a contrast & story in your room... The paintings of bamboos... some floral prints or even the trees... or paintings like Warli goes very well in living rooms & balconies... Even at the entrance to your home if you have enough space getting the wall self painted, can give a very bright & welcoming look to your home...

 

  this is Wall paper... Wall papers can be used in the full room but designs & prints such as the black flowers... must be used only to enhance... Putting this in you entire walls will give the room a very congested look... The room itself will lose its space & openness...

Few more wall paper textures...

 


wall paper with a texture on it....
  

Here again one must understand... Wall papers are cheaper than painting & wall textures... But maintainence of the wall papers is higher in comparison with the other...

The Wall textures can be left as is for more than 6-7 years whereas the Wall papers have to be changed after 3-4 years based on the maintainence... Not only that dust gets accumulated more in wall paper...

So don't go for things that are cheaper...
If you have an option to plan for 5-6 years or more wall textures & tiles are better options than wall papers.... But if you have 2-3 years & you don't mind re-doing your home again after that then wall papers can be tried :)
