There’s practically no end to them. Almost can be put on the wall and your educated eye will tell you whether it’s rich or poor looking. The choice is staggering and it’s a good thing because when a room needs color, texture, pattern or just something fascinating to wake it up, a wonderful wall will do the trick.

Wallpaper. Heavier papers are usually higher in quality than lighter ones, and also more costly. The cheapest papers are machine-printed, thin, unwieldy, and tend to shirk or stretch. The better the quality wallpapers usually have two layers of paper bounded together for strength. Hand-printed papers are usually the most expensive and they come silk-screened, block-printed or stenciled.

Wall Fabrics. The softest walls are fabric covered, and shirred material can take the place of missing architectural effects for quality rich look. There is a wide range of wall fabrics: delicate grass cloths, silks, leather suede—only your imagination sets limits. Padded fabric adds another dimension in luxe; soundproofing.

Paint. Finally, some of the most exquisite walls in the world are made of very unworldly paint. Hand-done stenciling, trompe l’oeil, fake marbling can give luxurious effects. Make sure you use excellent paint: cracking, peeling, and bubbling walls look cheap—unless they’re on the Greek Acropolis. Walls to be painted must be in super condition or smoothed by spackle or a layer of canvas.
