A Year Of Maximalism

In 2018, you’ll be saying goodbye to subtle repeats and gentle shades – and instead, saying a big fat Hellooo! to wild, brave and bold patterns. Maximalism is back with a bang.
Abstract geometric patterns, gigantic florals, dreamy landscapes and even pineapples (yes, really) are going to be creeping into our homes this year.
Wall murals were made for bold patterns.

Unlike wallpapers, where you’re constrained by the repeat – wall murals can be made bespoke for the size of your room. And there are 1000s of patterns to choose from too. Feeling experimental? With wall mural you can tweak each design so its’ bespoke to you.

Take a look at the gold, pink and triangle design above ***points up*** there is no way you could get the same statement styling with a wallpaper.

STYLE TIP: This mural looks so fabulous as the shapes and colours in the design have been echoed in the room’s decor. Just look at that gold lanterns on the coffee table and the geometric prints on the cushions – which all sit together in abstract harmony.

Small Spaces Are King in 2018

This year, small homes are going to take over Pinterest. The rule than a tiny home should be painted only in white is, frankly, old news. If you live in a smaller home – then it is the ideal spot to test out a wall mural. Don’t just stick to walls – allow yours to creep up the ceiling. This tricks the eye into thinking your space is waaaay bigger than it looks.

I’m in love with this 80s inspired design which is spot on in this all white home.

If you rent a shoebox? Then even better – Pixers’ wall murals are all self-adhesive so they can be peeled off and put somewhere else up to 10 times (without destroying the wall surface). So when it’s time to move, peal yours off and take it with you.

Got to love the way the wall mural design has been allowed to run wild on the wall, taking over the storage units and updating this otherwise dull space. The key to this is to choose bold shapes in vivid shades, then over-lay your design to give a 3-d effect.
