Andea Palladio mural |
In the present time, we are seeing a huge resurgence of this style in corky, fun and fascinating wallpapers.
Basically, the desired effect is to achieve a sense of perspective or 3D on a flat wall.

The new trend is to mimic different textures so that the occupants of the room walk up to the wall and touch it.

Finally, the "trompe L'oeil" effect trend is also moving downwards to under our feet. Companies are now manufacturing rugs and carpets with the same visual effect. However, there is a VERY fine line between "cool" and "tacky":

Lastly, in the digital era that we live in, we are seeing photographs digitally applied on wallpaper as well as digitally created images.
One company here in Toronto, Rollout, does exactly that! You bring your high resolution picture and next thing you know, it's on your headboard or accent wall :-)
