Papel de parede para cozinha. Como escolher o melhor

Every hostess knows that in the kitchen you need a wallpaper that is easy to care for. After all, during cleaning you have to use detergents, and sometimes even a brush. They should well tolerate high humidity and do not absorb odors. The requirements are quite rigid and meet them not so many types of wallpaper. Therefore, choose wallpaper for the kitchen, taking into account the material is not very difficult. But to choose a color scheme and pattern is more difficult at times.

What wallpaper is better to glue in the kitchen

First, briefly about the types that are not suitable. The worst option is paper. They will live in normal condition for a very short period of time. Caught a stain, there and will remain forever. There are so-called washable paper wallpaper. They do allow you to wipe them a few times with a damp cloth. You can remove dust from them, but soot, grease, juice stain and the like is unrealistic.

Acrylic wallpaper is also not suitable. The coating is very delicate and soft, erased even with a rag. Accidentally hitting the wall with your fingernail, you will leave a strip on them. So it’s definitely not for the kitchen.
Do not fit natural wallpaper based on cork, bamboo, silk, fabric. They are environmentally safe, beautiful, but absorb odors and afraid of humidity, poorly wash (or rather, do not wash at all). Therefore, also fall away.

What wallpaper is suitable

Of all the variety of coatings left only vinyl wallpaper and on the basis of fiberglass for painting. Here they are the best choice. More widely represented vinyl. They are monochrome, embossed, with drawings flat and textured.

Covering the base vinyl film, hence the name is very dense and strong. Some types are really difficult to damage, they can be washed with a brush with detergents (non-abrasive). In addition, polyvinyl chloride, the full name of the material from which the film is made is not afraid of moisture. The color on such wallpaper is stable, does not burn out and does not change. Glued on the walls, they do not absorb odors, and some types prevent the reproduction of mold and fungi.

With the type of coating determined, now it remains to choose another type of vinyl wallpaper. Yes, they also come in different varieties.

Vinyl wallpaper can be on paper or fleece. It’s better on the fleece. They are, of course, more expensive than on paper, but glued several times easier, while the wall looks much better. If you want to choose a really good wallpaper for the kitchen to glue well, look great and wash easily, choose on the fleece. This, of course, if the purse allows, they cost 50-80% more expensive.

There is also compact vinyl. It’s also called “heavy vinyl”. It usually has a relief coating, which imitates, and quite reliably, heavy natural finishing materials: brick or stone masonry, wood surface, etc., which can be not only cleaned, but also cleaned. They can not only be washed, but also scratched. Are not cheaper than vinyl on fleezelin.

If you like monochrome walls, but want relief, then choose vinyl under paint or glass wallpaper. Both are not bad in the kitchen, only wallpaper based on glass canvas can be repainted 10 times, sometimes more, and vinyl wallpaper 5-7 times.

An excellent choice would be to cover the walls in the kitchen with so-called liquid wallpaper. Their second name is Venetian plaster, which is not quite true, as there is no sand in the composition. Sold in bags, and the composition of this mixture includes: cellulose, silk fibers, dyes and various decorative materials.

According to the composition of liquid wallpaper are differentiated: on cotton, silk and combined. With the first two everything is clear, and in the third group in the composition, in addition to cellulose includes cotton and wool.

The name liquid wallpaper they received because of the technology of preparation for application. They are diluted with water and applied to the walls, while undemanding to the surface. Do not smell, dry quickly and look beautiful, you can pick up any color and consistency. In addition to these advantages, they are non-toxic when heated and fire safe. A well-known inexpensive version of Silk Plaster, a domestic manufacturer.

To the advantages of all these coatings can be added one more thing, they level and hide small irregularities of the surface. That is, the wall does not have to be perfectly level. At the same time they lie on the wall perfectly.

How to choose a color

If the wallpaper in the kitchen is only part of a global repair with a complete replacement of the furnishings, then you need to choose based on general recommendations. If there is already a kitchen set and apron, then the choice is limited. It is necessary to find a color that will harmoniously combine with the existing design. The easiest way to do this is based on the table of color matching. It is used by designers in the development of interiors.

In each sector there are colors, the combination with which is considered ideal. These are all colors of the same range. But it is possible to combine with different shades of another color group, it is important to know from which one. Several types of such combinations are defined, they are given in the scheme below.

Each of the sectors can be used with any shade according to these principles. For example, the kitchen set of green color. Pick up the shade of wallpaper can be from the two sectors on the sides, opposite, on complementary or any other system. But note that all other colors present in the design of the room should also fit into this scheme. So it’s not as simple as it seems.

On these schemes there is no white, gray and black. They are combined with any colors. Another thing is that black in the interior should not be a lot. In limited quantities, it perfectly emphasizes the nearby colors, but it is worth a little too much, and it creates an oppressive atmosphere. In general, dark kitchens – it is not a common option, too aggressively “press” such interiors.

Thinking about what color to choose wallpaper for the kitchen, do not forget about the psychological impact. So, orange, egg-yellow and grass green increase appetite. Blue and white – on the contrary, it reduces it. This fact, which is better to take into account when forming the interior of the kitchen.

Wallpaper colors and styles

If we talk about monochrome wallpaper, they fit into any interior, but more inherent in the classic, modern and minimalism. If the classical interior is still acceptable some ornaments, the other two gravitate to solid-colored walls.

Modern is more dynamic, but also the colors can not be a lot. Allowed two-color ornaments from the shades present in the interior.

If you want to have kitchen wallpaper in a flower, then decorate the room should be in the style of country, rustic, Provence. Here any plant (and not only) motifs are possible.

In the same styles you can use wallpaper in stripes and plaid. Different “kitchen” themes look interesting: vegetables-fruits, confectionery and bakery products – cakes, cupcakes, traditionally love coffee and coffee beans.

If you like this kind of wallpaper, note that according to the latest fashion trends they do not cover all the walls, but only some of their part, the rest is monochrome in the same range. This method is called combining, and wallpaper – companions or simply combined.

If you like the idea of combining, then choose a kitchen interior will be both easier and more difficult: you will have to look for two matching colors in the same group. They must be of the same thickness, otherwise it is hard to dock when gluing. Rules for combining wallpaper read the article about it.

Liquid wallpaper in the interior of the kitchen

Liquid wallpaper allows you to realize many design solutions. But note that after drying, the color will change slightly, so try out on a small section of the wall.

An excellent solution will be the use of liquid wallpaper in a small kitchen in a khrushchevka. Choosing light beige or light blue tones, you will make the room visually larger.

Photo wallpaper in the kitchen

Another popular type of wall decoration in the kitchen – photo wallpaper. There are very beautiful and realistic photos that really carry into another reality. One thing to consider is that photo wallpaper usually dominates the interior, so everything else should be in calm, unobtrusive colors. Style can be any, the main thing is to choose the right picture and decorative items.

For the style of Provence ideal will be a landscape with lavender fields. An interesting point, the photo wallpaper is pasted on two walls. A single image erases the corner, the room looks much more spacious than it really is. This technique can be used in small kitchens. Only the image should also be with perspective, like this. Then the effect will be maximized.

The theme of the night city combines well with the styles of minimalism or hi-tech. You choose a color or black and white image. They look different, but very effective.

Floral motifs are always in trend. Rigid lines of kitchen furniture, smooth floor and ceiling, serve as an excellent background for a bright picture. The approach when choosing exactly if there is on the wall of the photo wallpaper, everything else has a monotonous coloring.
