There are a few guidelines to follow when you are combining various wallpaper designs. One option is to select patterns that match the theme of the room’s décor. For small spaces, it is suggested to stick with lighter colors to make the space feel a bit larger. On the other hand, adding darker colors and complex patterns for larger spaces can create another world of possibility.
Wallcoverings can add a luxurious vibe to any room that is just not possible with paint. A combination of patterns can lend more character to each room and distinguish them from each other. Each room serves a different purpose and deserves a unique design. Here are a few tips to combine wallcovering patterns to create the most unique vibe.
Choose a color palette
Choosing a color palette allows you to work with a select few colors that complement each other. Many color themes are available based on the décor theme in the space being decorated. For instance, in a contemporary space, you might opt for a combination of contemporary wallpaper and stripes wallpaper to create a sleek and modern look. In contrast, for a more traditional or nature-inspired room, botanical wallpaper or grasscloth wallpaper could be the perfect choice.
For a day room, yellows, reds, and greens may work well, especially if the room has big windows that allow in natural light.

Additionally, art deco wallpaper can bring a touch of elegance and sophistication, ideal for formal living spaces or dining rooms. By carefully selecting and combining different wallpaper designs, you can create a personalized and stylish environment that reflects the unique character of each room.
Alternatively, you can go with a monochromatic color scheme with different hues of the same color to add contrast to the space.
Coordinate colors within patterns
To blend different wallpaper styles together, pick patterns with colors that go well together. Although the patterns may differ, the overall design will create quite the aesthetic. For example, these two patterns complement each other very well in our AP New Walls collection.

Use multiple patterns carefully
It is true that too many options can make you feel overwhelmed easily. A good guideline is to stick to three or less different wallpaper patterns within one room. However, if there is a room that is big enough and has several sections to it, allow your creativity to enhance the room with more than four wallpaper patterns. Multiple patterns can be used to create an illusion of boundaries within a room.
Stick to a theme
Regardless of the colors or patterns you choose, you must ensure that they keep with the overall theme of the room. There are endless possibilities when it comes to combining wallpapers and you can fall into the trap of creating too many themes in one room. Pay attention to every single data in a room, from the wallpaper to the furniture to the decor. Here are two clever uses of different wallpapers with the same theme, yet different patterns and colors.
