4 ideas for wall decor
Decorate the walls of your home for the coming season with four ideas gleaned from the Paris Interior Design Show: you probably already have the ingredients. If not, you'll find inspiration as you read on.
1. Ceramics
Have you got a few plates in your stuff? Fantastic! Instead of smashing them into a million pieces to bring a dramatic dimension to your next household scene, hijack them! They can be hung on the wall to decorate empty corners with their patterns or to match the graphics or aesthetics of existing paintings. No bowls or plates in sight? Never mind, I've got a few new ones for you, highlighted at the Maison & Objet show in Paris.



2. Trend boards
Small reminders, inspiring images and funny notes help to customise an interior. But sometimes these boards can't hold everything at once. As a result, current designs feature solutions that stand out from the crowd: canvases, painted MDF panels or magnetic boards, the key here being to prevent photos and such ending up in boxes.

3. Wicker
For the coming season, the decorating trend is unconventional, but gives pride of place to diversity! And with good reason, many exhibition stands sported baskets on the walls. Some stand out for the weaving technique used, others for their colourful patterns. Hang them on the wall instead of letting them collect dust! What's more, these wicker baskets have the advantage of being lightweight and can be fixed to the wall with a simple nail.


4. Mirrors
I don't know about you, but until now I've only had one mirror on the wall. Here, you can see that it's entirely possible to combine several to achieve the desired decorative effect. To avoid going overboard, you'll need to keep the features consistent by opting for framed or frameless mirrors, for example. In fact, designers offer many models that fit into an ensemble.

Like a cheerleader, I love celebrating good design and bringing you closer to everything furniture- and interior design- related. I regularly curate simple yet sophisticated interior ideas, report on trends and interview creative minds about their work.
