Wallpaper is a celebration of colour and texture, and with just a few metres, you can make a big difference to any room in your home. For example, you can wrap a living space in your favourite holiday destination. Or frame one wall to create a unique work of art. Style director Louise Hilsz shares four wallpaper trends and how to complement them with a touch of style.
