Other countries, other photomurals?

When we think of photomurals, we often think of the classic floral patterns or modern geometric designs that we know from our living rooms at home. But the world of photomurals is just as diverse and fascinating as the cultures and countries from which they originate. That's why we're taking you on a journey around the globe to discover how differently photomurals are designed and used in different countries.

Japan: minimalism meets nature

In Japan, wallpaper design often reflects the aesthetics of minimalism, which is deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Here, simple, natural colours and delicate patterns dominate, radiating calm and harmony. Photomurals with motifs such as cherry blossoms, bamboo or traditional Japanese symbols are very popular. The use of natural materials such as washi, a traditional Japanese paper, is also widespread and gives rooms a subtle but elegant texture.

Scandinavia: simplicity and functionality

In the Scandinavian countries, great emphasis is placed on simplicity and functionality. This is reflected in the wallpaper designs, which are often characterised by clean lines, simple patterns and a restrained colour palette. Nature motifs such as trees, leaves and animals are also common and reflect the Scandinavians' close connection to nature. These photomurals create a bright and inviting atmosphere that is typical of the Scandinavian interior design style.

India: a blaze of colour and opulence

Indian photomurals are the exact opposite of the simple Scandinavian designs. Vibrant colours, opulent patterns and rich textures dominate here. Traditional Indian motifs such as paisley, mandalas and floral designs are widespread. These photomurals bring warmth and vibrancy to rooms and reflect India's rich cultural and artistic tradition. Gold and silver accents are also often used to add a touch of luxury to the photomurals.

Morocco: geometry and exoticism

Moroccan photomurals are known for their geometric patterns and vibrant colours. Inspired by traditional Moroccan architecture and art, complex patterns such as arabesque designs and tile motifs can be found here. These photomurals give rooms an exotic and fascinating atmosphere and are perfect for bringing a touch of wanderlust and adventure into the home.

Great Britain: classic meets modern

There is a long tradition of wallpaper production in the UK, dating back to the 16th century. British photomurals often combine classic patterns such as stripes, checks and flowers with modern elements. Photomurals with historical patterns that are reinterpreted to decorate both traditional and contemporary rooms are particularly popular. Botanical motifs and subtle colours are also widespread, reflecting British charm and elegance.
