Rules and principles for combining wallpaper in kitchen design
Extraordinary design ideas for combining various textures, wallpaper colors are increasingly being used in home interiors. This solution is universal - it will suit the classic style, modern, Provence, hi-tech, modern, loft. When implementing such an idea, it is important to adhere to several principles.
Looking through photos with wallpaper combinations, you will notice that different combinations are reflected in the geometry of the kitchen, making the room higher or lower, wider or narrower.
The first principle is taking into account the individual characteristics of the premises. If the kitchenette is tiny, low, then you will have to give up dark colors, large drawings. With too high ceilings, it is undesirable to use small ornaments. The second principle is to stick wallpaper only on a flat, well-prepared surface. Even the highest quality finishing materials will fall badly on the uneven surface of the walls with defects.
Wallpaper design in the kitchen should be in harmony with furniture and household appliances
Note! When buying wallpaper to create a combination, you need to choose canvases of the same thickness. The difference in thickness will be very visible after gluing, very noticeable seams can ruin the overall picture.
The combination of different materials for decoration is a rather painstaking task that has many nuances. For an experienced designer, such work is not difficult, but not everyone has the opportunity to involve a specialist in the design of the kitchen.
Wallpapers of the same shade and similar texture will look great together
To combine wallpaper yourself, follow some basic rules:
- If suddenly the wallpaper has already been purchased, but they are not of the same thickness - use moldings, borders. Such accessories will help hide the transition, mask the protruding seams.
- It is not necessary to apply colors of the same saturation level. You can greatly benefit from the contrast of shades.
- Checking the compatibility of finishes at the purchase stage is mandatory! You can just take rolls, apply to each other.
- It is better to use washing, thick wallpaper in the kitchen. This rule is associated with the characteristics of the room: high humidity, soiling, the presence of unpleasant odors, etc.
- Materials should be purchased with similar characteristics and properties. This will help to achieve almost the same service life, avoiding the need for premature repairs.
- You cannot combine incongruous. Modern 3D photomurals will not look harmonious in combination with canvases decorated with classic patterns.

- Separate the dining area from the cooking area. This can be done using a different color, a different texture of the finish.
- Eliminate small planning errors. Few can boast of an initially successful layout in the house. When combining wallpaper in the kitchen, it will come out to hide, disguise or even eliminate small mistakes.

For more comfortable digestion, raising appetite, experts recommend giving preference to red, orange, turquoise, purple, brown shades.

Zoning a room using wallpapers of different colors, textures and patterns
The kitchen is often equipped with at least two zones: the dining room and the work area. In order to visually transform the space, you need to use one of the zoning methods. A good option is zoning with wallpaper that differ from each other in texture, color, pattern.
A harmonious combination comes out when the color of a plain surface matches one of the shades of the pattern on the wallpaper
Note! When using finishes of different colors, textures, patterns, the zoning of the kitchen can be: complex, partial. In the first case, different shades of the walls are used in the dining room, the working part of the room, in the second, the wallpaper differs only on one of the parts of the wall, most often near the dining table.
Creating an accent wall is a great way to dilute a monotonous kitchen interior.
The simplest separation method is to apply different shades of finishes. You can look at the combination of wallpaper of two colors of the photo in the kitchen right in this section of the article. This approach is used if bright accents are planned to be introduced into the interior. In this case, the zoning is usually partial.
Instead of trying to hide various niches and protrusions, try highlighting them with wallpaper that is different in color or texture from the background finish.
Using wallpaper with different textures is a good option for a classic kitchen interior. But here it is important to observe one rule - the structural motives of the surfaces must be harmoniously combined. In this case, the joints can be masked with molding. Another important point is the color scheme. If the texture is different, it is better to leave the color the same (with minimal difference).
Wallpaper inserts are a very effective technique for creating an attractive interior. It is advisable to make such inserts from thick non-woven wallpaper.
Patchwork combination or patchwork from wallpaper is a very unusual way to decorate walls
It is quite difficult to combine different patterns with each other. This zoning method is usually chosen by designers with sufficient experience. If you have no experience, it is better to combine the drawing with plain walls.

Highlighting the kitchen dining area with a vertical wallpaper combination
Important! The easiest way to match wallpaper in two colors is to select shades that belong to the same color palette. For example, it can be blue and light blue.
One win-win combination is creating contrasts.
It will be much more difficult to choose wallpaper with a suitable shade that will harmoniously fit into, especially if you decide to choose two colors of wallpaper for the kitchen.
The complexity of this process is due to the fact that many factors affect the color rendition and perception of shades: the size of the interior, the nature of the lighting, the layout features, the style and shape of the furniture. In addition, not all shades are combined with each other, and this fact directly affects the creation of a comfortable environment in your kitchen.
Features of the choice of shades
Initial the choice of colors depends on the size of the kitchen... Spacious interiors can be decorated both in and in gloomy colors, with large wallpapers and even photo wallpapers with a lot of small details: whatever the pattern or pattern, it will not emphasize the tightness of the situation.
The high level of ceilings in spacious rooms, if desired, can be lowered: just stick with vertical lines or along the entire room or on one of the walls.
Advice: a spacious kitchen is a great opportunity for. One of the most convenient ways to divide an interior into several parts is to use wallpaper in different shades.
If the size of the kitchen does not allow the use of wallpaper of any color and theme due to its limitations, choose as many options as possible. Dark or saturated shades can only be used if they are harmoniously combined with light-colored materials.
Note: when combined, it is necessary to observe the correct proportionality: do not overdo it with dark colors, otherwise the interior will look inharmonious.
Small kitchens with high ceilings can be expanded by wallpapering each surface: the ceiling and tops of the walls are decorated in light colors, and the underside of the walls in colder colors.
By choosing the right color for the wallpaper, you can correct the disproportionate shape of the kitchen space.... On a long wall, wallpapers of soft and light colors (,) are glued, and short surfaces are decorated with wallpaper of a more saturated palette (, and others). This design will allow you to align an overly elongated kitchen.
Another key point affecting the perception of color in the kitchen interior is lighting character... A room located on the north side should be decorated with wallpaper with a warm palette. Of course, a combination with contrasting shades is allowed, but do not forget about unwanted color overload otherwise the effect will be lost.
A kitchen with sufficient lighting will look cozy regardless of the color scheme... In addition, rooms on the south side can be decorated by gluing wallpaper to the ceiling (combining them with the color of the interior).
In search of an answer to the question of how to stick wallpaper in a kitchen of two colors, important rules are often overlooked, the implementation of which can affect the success of design work and the correct design of the walls:
- it is necessary to plan the color scheme of the room in advance, taking into account the characteristics of the room and the style of the interior. The color of the wallpaper is selected after the purchase of the headset and because you will find suitable wall materials much faster and easier;
- think about the need in advance zoning space... Wallpaper shades are chosen depending on the purpose of a particular zone in the kitchen: for example, in the cooking zone, light wallpapers will quickly lose their appearance, and in the dining area, some shades can negatively affect appetite;
- using wallpaper of two shades, which are not combined harmoniously enough, think over how to dilute the situation: use matching colors accessories or textile materials;
- for creating an accent on one of the walls, try to observe not only the color scheme, but also the theme of interior decoration: for example, panoramic scenes and are perfectly combined with wallpaper of plant motifs.
We combine multi-colored canvases
Due to the simplicity of execution and originality, the method of combining wallpapers of different colors in kitchen interiors is used more and more often, and it is suitable for both old styles and modern trends in design.
There are several ways to implement the conceived design of combined wallpaper for the kitchen. The most popular is creating a gradual transition between different shades on the same wall or adjacent surfaces.
If you do not want to use plain wallpaper or materials with a discreet pattern, you can dwell on another equally interesting way of using two colors in the interior of the kitchen: wallpaper with a bright or warm background color is glued in one of the zones, and the rest of the zones are decorated with coatings with splashes or patterns the same color on a light or dark background.
The compatibility of such wallpapers will be ensured, and the unusual implementation of the idea will emphasize the stylish effect.
It is extremely important to achieve a harmonious combination of wallpapers of different colors. Among the most successful methods of color combination are:
- combination of shades from one palette(for example, blue or brown wallpapers of different colors can be glued on one wall or on adjacent surfaces);
- combination of contrasting colors(soft and light colors are combined with brighter or darker shades in compliance with the lighting, layout and general style of the interior);
- combination of incongruous shades(as a rule, it is used to create decorative paintings or panels, and the wallpaper itself is separated using a frame or special moldings).
Many photos of gluing wallpaper of two types in the kitchen demonstrate successful combination of coatings with opposite shades(for example, yellow-blue, red-black and other cuisines).
When choosing such an option for interior decoration, observe care and accuracy, since both mood and appetite will depend on the correct location of different wallpapers on the walls. For example, it is inappropriate to use such colors to create patchwork compositions that are popular today around the entire perimeter of the room.
Wall design options
The selection of wallpaper for the kitchen in two colors should depend on the form in which you plan to place them in the space. Vertical combining is considered the most common, since it allows you to get the maximum number of benefits not only aesthetic, but also of a practical nature. For example, gluing multi-colored canvases in the form of wide stripes on one wall, you visually raise the ceilings and give dynamics to the interior.
In addition to this method, vertical combination possible when gluing adjacent surfaces: The transition between colors is carried out in the corner areas of the room.
For those who do not plan to lengthen the room in height, the horizontal method of gluing is suitable. By combining horizontally in two colors, you can emphasize an antique or modern style, create additional protection against dirt (for example, in the dining table area) and ensure a harmonious combination of wall design with a kitchen set.
As a rule, wallpapers of a darker shade are glued to the bottom of the walls.
Advice: To ensure a holistic perception of the kitchen interior, glue the lower part of the wall in a height corresponding to the size of the furniture or the height of the window sill.
In order to zone a space or create an accent on one of the kitchen walls, it is used an accent way to combine multi-colored wallpaper... To do this, one of the surfaces is decorated with wallpaper in a bright or saturated shade, and the rest are decorated in calmer and lighter colors.
Please note that the combination of wallpaper on adjacent surfaces is also possible with the participation of the ceiling... For example, by extending the design of one of the walls to the ceiling, you can emphasize the modern style of the interior and visually lower its level to the desired degree.
Recently, it has become quite common the patchwork technique, realized with the help of wallpaper fragments of different colors... Patchwork combination involves the use of harmonious, but bright enough shades.
You can glue such wallpaper not only in the form of squares, but also diagonally and in other ways, creating blanket effect on wall surface... This option is suitable for creative individuals, as well as for those who cannot choose from several favorite wallpapers.
Both patchwork and accent combinations can be realized not on the entire wall, but only on a separate part of it.... In this case, the wallpaper will create the effect of a decorative picture, and with the additional use of auxiliary elements (frames, moldings, borders or ribbons), the style of the room will be emphasized.
can be used to decorate ledges, niches, columns, arches and partitions in the kitchen interior... In this case, such materials will act as dividers, and you will not have to implement additional ideas for zoning the space.
In addition, the design of niches, ledges and other features of the room with the help of other wallpapers will allow you focus on these parts of the room and demonstrate the unusual layout of the kitchen.
For those who are not looking for easy ways, suitable complex combination technique... She suggests self-giving multi-colored wallpaper of non-standard shapes and sizes... For example, you can use this technique to split a wall diagonally or create stylish waves across the entire surface. As a rule, wallpapers from the same palette with varying degrees of saturation are used for these purposes.
By implementing the idea of combining wallpaper of different shades in the kitchen space, you can emphasize the main features of your room, as well as provide additional functionality at no extra cost.
The harmonious combination of shades, as well as the correct selection of patterns, will fill the interior with new colors and provide coziness and comfort at any time.
Wallpapering the walls is the most effective way to make the kitchen cozy and stylish and even correct some room imperfections. For example, with their help, you can create the illusion of spaciousness if the kitchen is small. The main thing is to choose the right shade and wallpaper pattern.
- The main guideline in choosing the color of wallpaper for the kitchen is the color of the headset. After all, it is the walls and kitchen furniture that occupy most of the space.
Our guide will help you make your choice and will show you some professional tricks for combining wallpaper and furniture. Also here you will find 112 photos of kitchens with wallpapers of different colors, in which you can see ready-made color solutions and ideas.
7 main rules
Whether you are planning a kitchen design from scratch or just want to replace the wallpaper to refresh the interior, these 7 guidelines will definitely help you.
- Make friends with the color wheel. When deciding on the color of wallpaper for the kitchen, you can use the favorite "tool" of designers - the color wheel. You can buy it from a craft store or search the internet for an online version of it.
The principle of working with a circle is quite simple - you need to play with color combinations according to ready-made color schemes.
Scheme 1. Monochromatic combinations: colors from one segment of the chromatic circle are combined. That is, the wallpaper is matched to the headset. So that the monochrome scale does not seem too boring, it is better to choose wallpaper with a pattern (see photo below). You can also complement the interior with contrasting accents, an abundance of light colors or simply expressive textures / materials.

Brown wallpaper without a pattern in the interior of the kitchen
Scheme 2. Contrasting combinations: colors-opposites are combined. So, for example, you can choose wallpaper with an orange print for a blue headset, since in the circle blue stands opposite to orange. And so that the combination of contrasting colors does not seem too harsh, it is better to use complex shades (for example, in addition to the blue headset, you can choose not pure orange wallpapers, but terracotta ones).
Scheme 3. Harmonic combinations: "neighbors" are combined in a circle. According to this principle, you need to choose wallpaper of a yellow-green or blue-green shade for a green kitchen set. You can dilute this range by including contrasting or neutral tones in the interior.
We have listed three main schemes, but in fact there are many more of them (the principle of triads, distant pairs, intermediate tones, etc.). Below you can see several diagrams.
- If there is not enough sunlight in the kitchen, then the wallpaper should be chosen light and warm. For example, white, cream, cream, light coral or pastel pink. Bright wallpapers of pure warm colors (for example, orange, yellow, red, etc.) can also be used, but in small quantities and provided the headset is neutral in color. The photo below shows a good example of how the northern and small kitchens were made lighter and "sunnier" with yellow wallpaper and white furniture.
- In the interior of a small kitchen the best white wallpaper "works", possibly with a small and not catchy pattern. White wallpaper in combination with a white set will give the effect of a boundless and airy space, even if it is very cramped.
White wallpaper reflects light, making the space brighter and visually pushing the walls apart.
Light wallpaper with a white set in a small kitchen in Khrushchev
It turns out that dark wallpaper has no place in a small kitchen? This is not entirely true. If you glue, say, black wallpaper on one wall, and paste over the rest of the partitions with lighter wallpaper, then you get the effect of a deeper space, the black wall seems to move deeper into the room.
- Wallpapers of cold colors (blue, light blue, turquoise) are shown for rooms that are flooded with sunlight most of the time. Otherwise, the walls will look dull and literally "freeze" the space. However, in a small dose and in combination with a large proportion of warm shades (for example, if the floor is wooden) "cold" wallpaper is acceptable.
- In general, wallpaper of warm colors is most suitable for the kitchen and dining room., since they have a good effect not only on appetite, but also on communication between households.
Wallpaper of cold tones, on the contrary, reduces appetite, against their background food seems less appetizing. For those who seek a moderate diet, this can play into the hands.
- In order not to miscalculate with the choice of color, after looking at cute wallpapers, do not rush to buy them right away, but rather ask / order a sample for testing. The fact is that the option that you liked in the store may open up a little differently at home due to different lighting. In addition, it may simply not match the shade of your headset.
Most often, samples are provided free of charge, and online stores deliver them to your home for a fee.
Wallpaper testing is carried out as follows: the sample is hung on the wall and then simply observed at different times of the day. Ideally, it should look good in dim light, bright sunlight, artificial light, and natural light.
By the way, it is useful to check a sample wallpaper for compatibility with other interior elements: floor tiles, an apron, upholstery, etc. Having collected and laid out all the samples on one board, you will see whether your idea is successful or something needs to be changed. Composing these boards (also called mood boards) helps professional designers create the most harmonious combinations of colors, prints and textures.
- And the last and very important practical advice. After choosing the wallpaper, check if all the rolls are from the same batch, and also make sure that you have taken at least 10-15% of the stock of the material.
Wallpapers of the same color and article number, but released in different batches, are always slightly different (due to the peculiarities of production). The difference in shade may seem slight, but it will be quite noticeable on the walls.
For this reason, wallpaper should always be bought with a margin. If suddenly there is not enough material, it will be problematic or impossible to find rolls of the same batch.

We follow the rules
Not only the kitchen, but other rooms of all sizes can be perceived differently depending on the interior setting. Wallpaper plays a key role in the perception of the area. and cool tones contribute to creating a closer atmosphere, while shades, on the contrary, expand the space. The photos illustrating the article with combined wallpaper in the kitchen are confirmation of this fact.
Attention! Wallpaper chosen for the purpose of combination in the same interior must belong to the same class. As a rule, luxury and cheap coatings differ significantly in both appearance and appearance, and such incompatibility will be striking.
How we combine wallpaper in the kitchen will determine not only the final result, but also the service life of such a repair. Quite popular is error of combining wallpaper of different thickness and structure: As a result, after a certain service life, some of the wall coverings lose their appearance. In addition, even wallpaper that varies slightly in thickness will create visible seams around the perimeter of your room.
Often the reason lies in the materials used, which is the reason for the different thickness of the canvases. And, you can find out from the article. Here you will also learn about and how to combine them, how to create a beautiful accent wall in the kitchen, using how to find successful combinations with or.

If your rooms are also combined, it is advisable to give preference to wallpaper of the same style and palette. Contrasting and incongruous options will spoil the atmosphere, although they will allow you to zone the space.
Vertical combining
The combination of vertical stripes of different styles in kitchen interiors is not as common as pasting individual walls, but it is great for rooms with low ceilings... In addition, this method helps to change the size and proportions of the kitchen: the elongated walls can be visually moved, and the narrow ones can be expanded at any point in the room.
You can combine wallpaper with the vertical method with and without symmetry... As a rule, a symmetrical combination of this type is carried out using wallpaper in contrasting shades.
Using this method, you can arrange two opposite walls in the interior and focus on the correct proportions of your room.
Combination asymmetry carried out with the aim of transforming the size of the room: long rooms become narrower, and cramped ones visually expand to the required size. In this case, one wall is decorated in a rich color using a wide canvas, and the opposite is pasted over with bright stripes of different sizes.

Desirable alternate between light and dark shades or use colors from a palette of the same tone.
Horizontal combination
Kitchens with excessively high ceilings can be visually reduced to the desired parameters. This is done very simply - it is enough to divide the wall along the floor into two parts of the same or different sizes. Of course, for these purposes, you can use standard panels made of wood or plastic, but, firstly, decorative wallpaper will allow you to convey all the subtleties of the style of your room, and secondly, they will not require special financial costs.
Advice: for horizontal combination, you can use wallpaper of different colors, textures and themes, but it is extremely important to observe the presence of one unifying feature. For example, it can be a similar tone or the use of different subjects with a natural theme.
From the photo of the combined wallpaper for the kitchen, it can be seen that most often horizontal alignment is carried out in a 1: 2 ratio, that is, the width of the bottom, as a rule, prevails over the top. However, you can glue them as you like, for example, create a division according to the level of the window sill or kitchen furniture. Joints can be decorated with moldings, borders or special decorative ribbons.
We create accents
Among the many options for combining wallpaper in the kitchen, one of the most common is the way to create an accent surface. This idea allows bring the far wall of your kitchen closer, and define the main area in the room... To do this, one of the walls (most often next to the dining table) is decorated with bright canvases or with a noticeable pattern.
Advice: decorating one of the walls in a brighter and more catchy style, you run the risk of disrupting the harmony and integrity of the interior, but the use of suitable accessories will solve this problem.
If you do not know how to combine wallpaper in the kitchen from a photo of finished interiors, this option will be the simplest and most widely available. The only rule to follow is creating a harmonious combination of all walls in the room...
