3D wallpaper in a modern interior +75 photos

Not so long ago a new word appeared in the design: a stereoscopic image that hides behind a more well-known name - 3D wallpaper. At first they were considered an exclusive interior element, and such coverage was found only in the most expensive apartments. But gradually, the decoration of apartments with volumetric images became available to anyone who is willing to go beyond saving in interior design. Consider the new material, which is tipped for success and complete ousting of outdated competitors from the market, from different angles and reveal its shortcomings, advantages and features.

3D wallpaper features

The material with a stereoscopic effect is a kind of photo wallpaper of a new generation. Due to the 3D illusion, a feeling of realism of the picture, depth and volume is created. Each of us visited the cinema, where they offer special glasses that help us feel like a participant in the events. A similar sensation is created by imposing a digital image on the base, which is perceived in a special way by the human eye and creates the illusion of space distortion. It should be understood that between the photo and 3D wallpaper a big difference: the first only convey the realism of the image, but not its texture.

On the basis of causing a variety of compositions, which sometimes work whole groups of artists:

  • Landscapes;
  • Painting;
  • Illustrations;
  • Abstract paintings;
  • Urban views;
  • Geometric patterns;
  • Images of the cosmos;
  • Imitation of texture materials.

The list of options is not limited to these categories: it, like art, has no limits. Such a wonder will be the main accent in the interior, which will attract the views of enthusiastic guests. By the way, they are used not only in the design of the walls. 3D wallpapers are suitable for pasting low ceilings and floors. They create perspective and soft depth. Stereoscopic material on the floor looks exotic and extravagant, but is suitable for fans of bold design solutions.

    

Main advantages

The main advantage of 3D wallpaper is naturally considered their beauty. No other finishing material will create such a realistic composition as this coating. There are no restrictions on image selection. The buyer can buy a finished picture from the catalog of the manufacturer or order any other drawing, even your own. For 3D wallpaper is quite easy to care for. Most manufacturers apply an additional vinyl layer to the canvas, which is easy to clean with a damp sponge and repels dust. Separately produced exclusive collections of special material that can be vacuumed like a fabric covering. With the sticking of wallpaper on the walls, any man in the street will cope with it: they fall on the surface easily using ordinary glue for heavy canvases. Difficulties may arise only with LED coating, but let's talk about this below. 3D composition can erase the boundaries of space. Its main effect and main advantage also consists in it: the illusion of continuation of the room outside the wall is created. Try to paste over with this material a large room, and it will seem to you that it has become even more spacious. Unfortunately, this technique does not work with small rooms, that is, the expansion of borders in the conditions of tiny space will go "with a squeak" and can only exacerbate the deficit of square meters. We also cover stereoscopic wallpapers:

  • Made from environmentally friendly materials;
  • Resistant to mechanical damage;
  • Fireproof;
  • Have a high service life.


    

Disadvantages of use

The main disadvantage of 3D wallpaper is their cost. They are still included in the category of new products and differ in high cost. The harder and better the work, the more you have to pay for it. Unfortunately, the material is too saturated with relief, so it is simply not visually perceived in tight spaces and makes tiny rooms even smaller. Typically, images on 3D wallpaper have many bright strokes, excessive realism can also play against them. Such original pictures quickly become boring. In search of comfort, households can go to other rooms. For this reason, the material is not recommended to finish the rooms where people are constantly: children, bedrooms. This option is suitable for "common rooms": kitchen, living room.

As a result of the research, scientists found out that almost 28% of people feel unwell after an hour-long session of viewing 3D images. This category complains of headache, blurred vision and nausea. Unfortunately, you can also be in this risk group, so before purchasing this material it is worth testing your body for perception of realistic pictures.

    

Main types and characteristics

The material is classified based on the method of filing the picture:

  • Panoramic. They are designed for covering the entire wall and often go beyond it, crawling onto the ceiling or adjacent partitions. Panoramic wallpapers are striking in their scale, although it is this goal that designers pursue: blurring the boundaries between reality and drawing. Fascinating pictures of night cities, natural landscapes or types of space galaxies. For this type of material, it is important to work carefully when pasting walls: canvas should be smooth and without distortions. They are released as a whole, in one big picture, and as modular elements that need to be assembled and customized to each other on the walls;
  • Fragmentary. They usually represent a small picture that occupies only a small part of the wall. Its borders are framed with a baguette or metal frame. Such a window into another reality;
  • Roll. The type of material derives from the name itself. The wallpapers are twisted into rolls, and the pattern on them is repetitive. The composition is based on ornaments, patterns, abstract components, geometric shapes, independent elements (water droplets, smoke, sun glare). The main convenience of the rolled 3D wallpaper is their versatility. It is enough for you to make sure that the seams converge, and it is completely unimportant how the pattern coincides with the adjacent sheets;
  • Fluorescent;
  • LED.

The range of 3D wallpapers is rich and allows you to choose a material in accordance with the aesthetic taste and financial capabilities. The first three types are notable for their sparing prices, and the last two are the novelties of the past seasons, so their value leaves much to be desired.

    

Fluorescent wallpaper

This wallpaper is also called luminous. There is nothing unusual in the material. On the surface of the picture randomly or along the contour is applied a special paint. It tends to accumulate during the day solar energy, which is released in the dark in the form of a pleasant, soft glow. The effect is achieved by adding to the composition of a special pigment - phosphor. Paints come in different colors and can create a unique, bright picture. Contrary to misconceptions, these substances are environmentally friendly and completely safe for humans.

Many people confuse the phosphor with white phosphorus, which, upon contact with air, oxidizes and also glows, but is harmful to human health. A larger volume of fluorescent wallpaper purchased in the presence of fluorescent fluorescent lamps. Especially for them, they model hidden niches in the walls and under the ceiling, simultaneously directing the rays to the whole picture or its individual fragments.

The most spectacularly illuminated are wallpapers depicting the depths of space, night cities, the bowels of the ocean and winter landscapes. With the help of phosphor coating, you can not just revive the picture, but turn it into a real fairy tale.

LED wallpaper

LED wallpaper is a system of the same coating with a built-in control chip. The latter is connected to the console, which change the intensity of the backlight, its brightness, the frequency of "flashing", on or off certain zones. The number of modes depends on each specific material model. The more options, the more complex the system, and accordingly the price. In a more simple language, the only thing left of the wallpaper in this material is the name and location. In essence, these are LED LED panels. They are coated with a special compound that glows when an electric current hits it. Optimists suggest that this new product will eventually push out from the market not only ordinary wallpaper, but also most of the lighting devices, as much outdated options.

LED panels can operate from a conventional outlet or self-contained power sources: rechargeable batteries or solar batteries. The latter is used in the most modern models. With the gluing of the options easier, you can do it yourself with the help of a regular fastening compound. It is enough to comply with the parameters of overlap, which is necessary for contact in the electrical circuit. Attaching to the basis of self-bonding more complex models will be engaged in a team of specialists, the involvement of which is associated with additional costs. Unfortunately, LED wallpaper is not yet a proven product. He did not go into mass production and did not have time to stand the test of time. For this reason, the service life of the material remains just numbers on the manufacturer's label, which can bring many unpleasant surprises. Many owners of LED canvases were disappointed with the quality of the products that were quickly made in China. Obviously, by chasing cheap prices, unlucky buyers lost both money and faith in modern technology. Therefore, when buying such a material, pay attention to the manufacturer, he must inspire confidence.

LED wallpaper, which is used instead of lamps, saves energy. They do not strain the eyes of a person, and allow you to do everyday things. Reading in this diffused light is certainly not recommended.

Printing methods

The way of printing depends on the saturation of colors, the preservation of brightness of colors and the life of the wallpaper. If you decide to purchase this material, then pay special attention to the drawing technology. There are several common options:

UV inkTheir one-component composition, without volatile elements, is photopolymerized under the influence of ultraviolet and tightly absorbed by the base. The ink forms a strong film that does not fade, is not afraid of water and fat. The colors are bright, juicy and retain their original appearance for many years.
Eco solvent inkThey belong to the group of materials with solvents (solvents) in the base. In the intragroup classification for aggressiveness and toxicity, they share the same position with biosolvent compounds. For a person absolutely safe. When used, they emit a faint odor at the beginning, which eventually disappears. Particularly fine coloring particles and volatile solvent. The latter, on drying, evaporates, leaving a film of fixed pigment. The ink can reproduce exactly the smallest details of the picture with high resolution. These wallpapers will last a long time and will not fade with time.
Latex inkThey contain artificial latex particles, solvent, water, stabilizers and pigments. Perfectly safe for humans. They will preserve the image for a long time in its original form, but when using latex ink, its clarity is very “lame”. They are fixed only on a heat-resistant basis, since printing is carried out at high temperatures.

The basis is traditionally preserved paper, non-woven and vinyl. The last option has a nice texture. The most environmentally friendly paper remains.

    

How to pick up

The choice of wallpaper should be made according to two criteria:

  • The nature of the image;
  • Material type.

Paper and non-woven fabric suitable for bedrooms, nursery and hall. Vinyl, which is more resistant to wear and does not fear water, is ideal for the kitchen, hallway and bath, if some living rooms of course can envy the dimensions of the latter (remember the ban on small rooms). As for the nature of the image, calm compositions are left for the place of rest, and more juicy, dynamic paintings are suitable for rooms where the active part of life passes.

    

For the bedroom

In the bedrooms, 3D wallpaper is placed on the leading wall at the head of the bed. Here, stereoscopic images look the most colorful. If the surface is already occupied, then decorate the opposite wall. When choosing an image, focus on the colors. The composition should be sustained in soothing colors that will contribute to sleep and rest. In postpunk use futuristic pictures of the destroyed cities of cold, neutral shades. The bedroom decorated in the style of minimalism or with oriental motifs welcomes themed images: a landscape with a pagoda, a misty morning in a Japanese garden, a flowering branch of sakura on the background of the lake surface. Pictures of the morning forest, endless fields and sea depths flow into the eco-style.


    

For living room

3d wallpaper in the interior of the living room can be a highlight of the room. The original combination of fragmented canvases, which are part of a single picture, like the details of a huge puzzle. They are decorated around the perimeter with moldings that help create the effect of a lattice window, through which guests watch the images. In the high-tech look landscapes night cities, cosmic depths and abstract paintings with geometric patterns. In this case, relevant 3d roll wallpaper with a repeating pattern. Picturesque panoramas of flower bouquets and still lifes are suitable for a classic style. For the eclectic motto, you can safely take the dictum: the more extravagant, the better. For this reason, the walls of the living room with an interior in this style can decorate both giant butterflies and winged bicycles floating in the clouds. In the Scandinavian direction on 3D wallpaper depict horses on the run, blue flower bouquets, winter panoramas. Fusion admits of strange paintings with mounds of stone briquettes, water droplets, carpets of lush foliage. It also applies dark landscapes with the color of a sleepy hollow and volumetric geometry in various manifestations.


    

For kitchen

In the kitchen, themed paintings are welcome, regardless of the style chosen. These can be fruits, vegetables, large-scale still lifes from glass jars for spices, coffee beans, soda cans, wine bottles, cups of tea and various dishes. Cityscapes look colorful here. For Provence fit the image of autumn Paris with its main symbol in the center of the composition.

In the light Italian direction using views of the Colosseum, the leaning Tower of Pisa, Venetian streets and canals. In classical style, volumetric reproductions of paintings by famous artists of the past look harmoniously. A universal motive for this room is not only culinary compositions, but also floral ones. They promote good appetite and good mood.


    

For the nursery

In the children's room, stereoscopic panoramas will create a true fairy tale, especially if they are fluorescent. One of the walls you can paste over with 3d wallpaper depicting the scenes and scenes of favorite cartoons or books of the child. The girls' room is decorated with fabulous castles with princesses, while boys have superheroes or panoramas of space battles settling on the walls. ZD wallpapers can be easily turned into a training ground if they depict a world map, a starry sky, abstract formulas, a deep sea with underwater inhabitants, and an animal world. In all the paintings for the nursery on this finishing material, as a rule, there is a lot of greenery and a neutral color scheme.


    

In the hallway and corridor

Not every wallpaper and corridor will suit 3d wallpaper. In small rooms it is not possible to view the image from a distance, which is simply necessary for its correct perception. Often use only one option: on the wall, which a long corridor "ends", paste a panoramic wallpaper with the prospect of exit. It can be a long row of columns of the palace hall, a staircase to heaven, a path to the forest or a pier of boards to the water surface. Spacious hallways are rare. But if you are lucky enough to become the owner of this luxury, then you should arrange it accordingly. Guests can meet a fantastic composition, natural landscapes or an abstract picture with a "twisted" in a spiral space.


    

How to glue 3D wallpaper

Before gluing the wallpaper, you must prepare the walls. They completely remove the layers of the old finish. If, as a result, the surface has irregularities, holes from nails or dowels, then it is spat. After the mortar has dried, the work sites are sanded with sandpaper. Then put a primer, it will provide the best “grip” between the adhesive and the wall. After the solution dries, the surface is marked in squares, accurately measuring their faces with a tape measure. If the walls are curves, then additionally use the level. Затем разводят клей для тяжелых полотен в чистой емкости и наносят его на загрунтованную поверхность, а не на оборотную сторону материала. Имейте ввиду, что панорамные обои поклеить в одиночку невозможно. Вам понадобится помощник, который подержит материал. Полотно начинают приклеивать с нижнего угла и двигаются вверх, постоянно сверяясь с разметкой. Специальным резиновым валиком из-под обоев выгоняют пузырьки воздуха.It is necessary to get rid of them completely, since these defects will subsequently adversely affect the perception of the details of the pattern.

If you still missed the air "swelling" on the material, then gently, before the wallpaper is completely dry, pierce them with a thin needle and level them.

Conclusion

3D wallpaper is a modern, stylish finishing material that will become a luxurious interior detail and its highlight. Reliable manufacturers offer quality products, which over time will pay back their cost with interest, because simple coverage would have to be changed more often.

The main thing is that the image on the wallpaper you are not tired of over time, so choose the material, guided by their own taste, not fleeting desires.
