Bare walls offer the

perfect opportunity

to create decorative

features. Here are some

great ways to turn one

into a striking focal point

1

THE BIG PICTURE

The photographs you take are

unique to you. Instead of just framing

them, have your favourite printed wall

size as this homeowner did. This image

of tree aloes brought the bedroom to

life and makes a good contrast to the

straight lines of the furniture. Decor by

Jacquie Bender of Motife Interiors.

MOODY HUES

Watercolour and ombre effects

are a popular way to establish a

soothing atmosphere without pattern.

However, if your artistic skills are not

up to painting them yourself, use a

wallpaper like Rebel Walls’ Gradient

from St Leger & Viney to give the

same soft, organic look.
