wallpaper designs

wallpaper is by no means a new product. the gentry of renaissance europe were among the first to begin
using it. the early versions of wallpaper were used to replace expensive tapestries and usually featured
scenes spread across multiple sheets of paper. wallpaper has changed a lot since then. today there are
literally millions of different patterns and colours to choose from and an expanding array of wall coverings.
while most wall coverings still come in the traditional long sheet form, there are many examples that are
unlike anything you have seen before. from walls covered in post-it notes or plants to interactive walls
and glow in the dark designs, wallpaper has transformed into something completely different. this article
will look at some of the most creative and unusual wall coverings and wallpaper designs.
