When it comes to decorating the house, there are so many things to think about. Mostly, the factors are related to colors, layout, furniture design, etc. One of the core ideas behind interior designing is to translate the personality of the residents onto the overall feel of the house.

A good interior designer is an ideal person to guide you through this process. He will be able to guide you through the process of developing your house as per your aspirations and requirements. Speaking of design elements, one of the most important features in any house are its walls. If you can achieve presentable and aesthetically beautiful walls, you have already taken a big step toward an amazing design that will certainly be unique and personalized. 

Let's go ahead and take a look…

1. Reflective coatings

In this kitchen, the architects have opted for a combination of glossy wall tiles on one end and natural stone texture on the other. The combination not only looks presentable but also helps in giving the space a bright and spacious look, primarily due to the reflective quality of the wall tiles.

2. A beautiful room with eye-catching texture and prints

We start our tour with this beautiful living room that is provided with an excellent light quality. The room displays a well thought-out color palette, however, the highlight of the space is the textured off-white wall that looks stunning and provides the perfect contrast to other elements in the living room.

3. Contrast for the kitchen

In a casual yet lightweight style that inspires order and minimalism at the same time, this kitchen displays an excellent contrast between the wall tiles, below-counter white shutters and the rich teak shutters above the counter.

4. An element of surprise

Modern technology allows us large scale wall prints as seen in this image. Wallpapers like these are perfect to inspire an exciting and modern ambiance.

5. The role of lighting design

When we opt for walls adorned with wall textures, it is essential that we also focus on complementing light quality. A good lighting design can do wonders to a wall with intersting design patterns.

6. Patterns for baby's room

In the private areas of the house, especially the babies' room, it is important to have relaxing and soothing colors which can inspire peace and harmony in the day-to-day life.

7. The beauty of wood

If you desire to add an element of dynamism in your house, opting for wood might be a very good option. For an enhanced impression, you can also look for textured wooden patterns and complement it with a good light source.

8. Intricate patterns

Sometimes, contrasting intricate patterns with solid sterile surfaces can generate a very interesting combination.

9. Faded bricks

Exposed bricks coated with a simple limewash can provide an excellent backdrop for your favorite elements. Just look at how fantastic these bright yellow chairs look when placed against the light colored brick wall.

10. Rustic facade

Exposed bricks or stone when combined with natural vegetation and wooden elements provide a perfect combination for a relaxing and rustic setting.

11. In the bathroom

Tablet-type tiles are perfect for setting like bathrooms. They add color and texture and can completely transform the ambiance of the space. Easy maintenance is also one of the interesting features of these tiles.

12. 3D patterns

In settings which are luxurious and demand high-end finishing, a symmetrical 3D coating can look gorgeous by creating a play of light and shadows to accentuate the wall surface.

13. External facade ideas

Here we see a simple facade being totally transformed through an elegant unpolished stone-cladded surface.

14. A collage of colorful patterns

A collage of colorful tiles with different patterns can add loads of charm and positivity in the kitchen space

15. Modern elegance

In the shower area, it is worth investing in modern high-end finishes which can make your daily experience visually richer as well as comfortable.

16. Less is more!

A well-finished exposed brick wall can be an asset to any space, more specifically in the common areas. Rendering it with a good light source can further enhance the overall appeal of the setting.

17. Bold colors

Colors have the potential to transform, brighten and energize any given space. Here we see how the combination of a yellow wall and the blackboard adds a nice punch to the bathroom.

18. Organic textures

For relaxing spaces such a lounge, walls with natural textures and surfaces that can allow doodling or sketching can prove to be very attractive.

19. A classic ambiance

For those who love traditional settings, the classic look of prints and wallpapers can bring sophistication, good taste and striking aesthetics to the space.

20. In the dining space

When adorned with the right colors and textures, you can be assured that your dining experience will be far more appealing than it would be in a dull and boring space 

21. Reflective coatings

In spaces like bathrooms or kitchens, reflective coatings can provide a far cleaner look and a distinctly spacious appeal.

22. A combination of textures

We end out tour with this nice looking living room which has a combination of wood as well as glossy panelling.
