Featureless Walls Can Be Beautiful Too

By Nataile Comber


When you move into a new home, especially a brand new home, you gain access to blank canvas that can be used to give it a unique identity. You home is a reflection of your personality. It expresses who you are based on what you choose to decorate it with. Even a windowless wall can be used as such a canvas.

You might be surprised by just how much your choice of wall decorations can transform a room. The entire tone and texture can be controlled with wall decorations.

When deciding on the look and feel of a room, the first stop is usually the paint department at the home improvement store. This is especially important for rooms with relatively featureless walls. Interior rooms that do not have windows usually benefit from softer colors. Whites, as well as subtle blues, greens and yellows are popular choices. You can give rooms extra dimension with stylish wallpaper or stencil art.

The color is the first thing people notice about a wall, but after that, they will begin to notice the texture as well. You can give a wall an extra flair by giving it texture with a particular finish. There are a wide range of finishes to suit a large number of personalities and tastes. It is up to you whether you will have smooth or textured, glossy or matte, simple or patterned. You might even have your favorite piece of art applied to the wall itself as a mural.

Instead of painting and finishing a wall, some people instead decide to use some variety of wall covering. For a repeating pattern that covers the entirety of a wall, grass cloth and wall flats are popular choices, giving it texture and extra dimension. Tapestries or other hanging cloth items can also add a splash of color.

The use of art is the most common way to fill a wall with style. On large, windowless walls, most people place multiple pictures at consistent angles, sometimes stacked, one over the other, and sometimes at a pleasing, diagonal angle. Shelves, showcases, bookcases and shadow boxes can be used to display items that reveal your particular interests.

In any sort of decoration or design, the key is to be consistent. Variety, contrast and hybrid styles can work if balanced properly, but a lack of a consistent vision will make the home appear chaotic and imbalanced. For a consistent look, always try to choose compatible colors, and if possible, find similar styles, such as frames with similar edges to wooden furniture pieces.

In most ventures, planning ahead will be a great benefit, and interior design is no different. When you decide a steady look and feel, it can do much to bring the rooms together and create a warm, comfortable atmosphere.
