Different types of wall paint finishes

There are different types of paint finishes that can affect the look and durability of your wall painting.

Some of the common ones are:

• Matt emulsion: smooth, velvety, and helps to hide imperfections on less-than-perfect walls.
• Satin: slightly shiny and can be used on walls, woodwork, and metal. It is easy to clean and resistant to stains and scuffs.
• Eggshell: has a soft, low-sheen finish that is similar to the surface of an egg. It is suitable for interior woodwork and metal and can create a subtle contrast with matt walls.
• Silk: has a high-sheen finish that reflects light and brightens the room. It is ideal for smooth walls and can be wiped clean easily. However, it can show up imperfections more than matt or satin.
• Sheen: has a mid-sheen finish that is somewhere between silk and matt. It is durable and washable and can be used on walls and woodwork.

Wall Painting or wallpaper?

Which is better, wall painting or wallpaper?

Most settle on the first option because it is cheaper, and, unsurprisingly, this option is by no means the worst.

On the other hand, wallpaper is one of the most popular wall decoration options in our time.

This lies in the fact that wallpaper is much easier to process and maintain. 

But the best option is a combination of wallpaper on the feature walls and paint on the other walls.

And besides, an absolutely unlimited choice of shades is now possible in a custom-made wallpaper. But it is a little more expensive. 

Of course, the option of traditional brush and paint wall painting requires thoroughness, accuracy, and professionalism from the one who does it.

The main thing is to choose professional painters who will paint the walls in an apartment or house with high quality. 

And if necessary, they will be able to advise the right and correct combinations of colors that are most suitable for a particular design.

It’s hard to argue with the fact that Wallpaper Kenya are masters of their craft and have a great sense of style.

Combining paint and wallpaper on different walls  in the same room

As a rule, active wallpapers are combined with wall painting – with a pattern, ornament, or deep texture, catchy and expressive.

Why is the combination of these types of finishes so widespread? Because the total use of bright wallpapers has long left the top trend list.

But it’s not only that. The dominance of patterned wallpapers brings excessive variegation and ripples into the interior, making it oppressive and tiring. Elegant calmness is relevant these days.

Their combination creates a harmonious balance. The interior acquires juiciness, liveliness, and texture without excessive visual noise.

Wallpaper, present in a small volume, performs the function of wall decor.

A plot covered with flowery wallpaper does not need additional decoration. It has already been designed.

It is convenient and profitable, especially for those who doubt their decorating abilities.

Landscape wall painting

One of the best ways to make a spectacular accent and visually expand the boundaries of the room is to decorate the wall with a beautiful landscape.

Landscape painting wall art is a simple and very effective interior decor solution that looks equally good in any room of the house.

Whether it is an entrance hall, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, or living room, a landscape mural looks good.

This technique allows you not only to create an accent wall, highlighting a certain section of the room but also visually push its boundaries.

And it will work even when the image is made in a conditional manner. The easiest way to create a landscape on the wall is to cover the room with beautiful floral wallpaper.

where and how to use it

Designers like to decorate the accent wall in the living room or the wall at the head of the bed in the bedroom with landscape wallpaper – this is a classic of the genre. 

But no matter what room the landscapes on the wallpaper decorate, they guarantee an atmosphere of peace, relaxation, and comfort.

Accent wall painting

Are there rules for accent wall painting? You may ask. Most often, when planning the interior of a room, one wall needs to be accentuated.

Then the question arises, how exactly do you accent the wall in the room?

For example, you can simply highlight it with a different color by choosing a more or less contrasting color to the main one.

Like every painting project you’ll embark on, there are dos and don’ts that you will want to make sure you follow so that the job gets done the right way.

An accent wall is a single wall in a room that is purposely painted a different color than the rest of the room to set itself apart.

An accent wall draws all the attention when one enters the room and it ultimately becomes the focal point of the room.

Painting an accent wall can also make a room appear larger and more spacious than it actually is. This can be a huge benefit if square footage is a concern of yours.

Your design option for a selected accent wall

You can take a lighter or more saturated shade of the main color in the room for your accent wall painting.

The convenience of photo mural wallpaper is that you can choose a specific pattern (from the catalog) and fill it with the necessary accent wall.

Wall mural can consist of several canvases, and you can choose part or all of the picture, suitable in size and composition.

Modern photo wallpapers produced by some workshops can be seamless.

The 5th Wall: Ceiling wall painting

There is not much difference between wall painting and ceiling painting, except for the design suitability. In interior decoration, the ceiling is referred to as the 5th wall.

However, some designs look better on the wall than on the ceiling and vice versa.

• And on the other hand ceiling wallpaper is a bold and trendy way to add visual interest, texture, and sophistication to your ceiling. It can also cover up imperfections and cracks on the surface.

Some designs that are available for ceiling wall painting are geometric patterns, stripes, murals, and contrasting colors. And the designs that are available for ceiling wallpaper are floral prints, grid patterns, animal motifs, or abstract shapes.

Wall preparation for painting

For the best results in wall painting, like in any other task, preparation is essential. It is imperative to bring the surfaces themselves to the desired condition.

2. After cleaning putty is applied. Puttying removes all defects and small irregularities on the surface. Usually, 1-2 layers of putty are enough.
3. Next, prime the wall. Thanks to the primer, the paint will lay down in a more even layer. In addition, priming improves the adhesion of the surface to the paint.
4. Sometimes it is required you treat the surface with special antibacterial preparations and anti-mold and mildew agents. Ans this is especially necessary when preparing the walls in the bathroom for painting.

Sometimes additional tools may be required, but the main list is as follows:
