Creating your own gallery can be a great way to decorate your walls. Arrange your favorite paintings and photos on the wall, mixing different sizes and frames. You can highlight specific images by using a hierarchy of color or size. This type of decor not only adds dynamism to the space but also allows to showcase the interests and tastes of the owner.

Wall sconces and wall lights are an additional source of light that does not take up space on the floor or side tables. All you need to do is choose a design that complements the interior and adds uniqueness to the space.

Moreover, light as a decorative element helps create interesting visual effects or a specific atmosphere. The use of directional lights, sconces, neon signs, or LED strips can emphasize the texture and color of the walls and bring even more style, coziness, and mystery to the interior.

Open shelves serve as functional storage for books and other items. They can also become an essential part of the decor. To achieve this, add small plants, souvenirs, or decorative figurines to the shelves that harmoniously complement the books and interior concept.

Moreover, this decorating method allows for periodically changing the mood of the space. At any moment, you can experiment with the arrangement of items and add a few new ones.

Various shapes and colors in mosaics and tiles allow for the creation of unique patterns or complete images on the walls of a space. For example, mosaics are perfect for decorating bathrooms and kitchens but can also be used creatively in other rooms.

Furniture pieces or decorative elements can also inspire the choice of paint, paneling, or wallpaper colors for the walls. For example, if the central feature in the living room is a sky-blue sofa, one might consider decorating the walls in a similar color with a subtle sheen or a matte effect. Working with harmoniously matched shades on different surfaces can drastically change the perception of the atmosphere and proportions of the space.

Well-chosen textiles can add warmth and coziness to any space. Another exciting option for wall decoration is textile panels or wall décor items made from fabrics with unusual patterns.

Thanks to their ability to reflect light, mirrors can make a small space appear larger and brighter while also serving as a decorative accent. You can hang a large mirror on the wall proportionate to the surrounding furniture or create a composition of several mirrors. Just be sure that they harmoniously complement each other.
