The Truth About Wallpaper
Social media has been influencing our tastes and trends since MySpace poked its head out all the way back in 2003. A few years ago, we went to Pinterest or Instagram to see which new fashion or design trends would be coming our way. Now, everyone between the ages of 13 and 60 turns to TikTok.
Oh? You doubt the influence of this behemoth? TikTok has over 1 billion monthly active users. Compare this to Pinterest’s 480 million and you’ll see why the clock app is the place to find what’s trending.
The downside to that all, is that TikTok’s trends pass in a second. We jumped from Dark Academia to Cottage Core, all the way to Scandi and back again within 9 months.
How are we supposed to keep up with these kind of trend shifts in our interior design spaces?
Keeping Up With The Trends
Sure, you swap around some scatter cushions and replace the art in your frames. But that’s not enough to really make an impression. What you need to do is to change your built-ins, your floors or your walls.
Easy fix, right? Just repaint the accent wall every three months. Sure, let’s forget all about the toll those chemicals take on a body. Or the impracticality of layers upon layers of paint on a wall.
The only real solution is going the wallpaper route. But wallpaper isn’t perfect either. Well, not all wallpaper. Some are just a little bit more special.
The Problem With Wallpaper
Variety
When you choose a paint colour, you have every possible option under the sun. Common wallpaper manufacturers can’t possibly compete. It’s not a financially viable business model. The solution, of course, is to be able to choose exactly the design you want and simply have the manufacturer make it.
Labour Intensive Installation
If you haven’t installed your own traditional wallpaper before, you’ll have no idea just how difficult it can be. Meters of paper curling around your feet, cans of adhesive just waiting to be knocked over. Not being able to match the design on the different strips. It’s like going to war.
Surely there should be a wallpaper professional that you can trust to streamline the process?
Not Fit For Every Space
The wallpaper of the olden days really was not made for any kind of climate that ever saw a drop of humidity or a bit of heat. Try installing traditional wallpaper in a bathroom and see how it starts bubbling and lifting. What about homes or businesses with high traffic and a risk of scratches or scuffs? Forget about traditional wallpaper, then.
What we need, is a wallpaper that is specially designed to handle our South African climate and culture.
Cost
Traditional wallpaper is extremely expensive – not only to purchase but to install as well. What’s worse, it’s almost impossible to remove easily and cleanly. You end up with a worse mess than just painting the same wall seventy times. More than that, the cost in medical expenses of the toxic glue used in traditional wallpaper cannot be overstated.
Okay, I’ve kept you on tenterhooks too long now. I actually do have the perfect answer to these issues.
