Whether abstract with geometric patterns, classic with floral motifs or simply in a trendy color for the accent wall: wallpapers give every room a completely new feeling of space. They prove to be a practical, easy-care and cost-effective option for wall decoration, especially in the living area. Depending on the space available, they can be staged effectively and give the interior character. But if desired, they can also fade discreetly into the background so that, for example, the new designer armchair can make its grand entrance. We have put together 30 ideas for wallpaper for the living room for you. With these unusual designs, numerous color combinations and different patterns, boredom has no chance.
