Wallpaper isn’t just décor. It’s visual structure. It’s rhythm. It’s atmosphere.

And when it’s chosen incorrectly? You feel it — even if you can’t name why.

In this episode of Your Home by Design, Nico breaks down how to choose wallpaper without regret. Not from a “pick what’s pretty” perspective, but from a designer’s lens rooted in rhythm, repeat, scale, and integration.

You’ll learn why installers always ask about repeat, why some wallpaper subtly irritates your nervous system, and the exact formula designers use so wallpaper never feels pasted on as an afterthought.

Whether you’re designing from scratch or adding wallpaper into a finished room, this episode gives you the clarity and confidence to make bold decisions — intentionally.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• What a wallpaper repeat actually is (and why it impacts cost)
• The “Integration Rule” designers use in finished rooms
• Why predictable pattern repeats create that subtle designer “cringe”
• The difference between object patterns vs. texture patterns
• How scale changes the feeling of a room
• When to go bold — and when to pull back
• Why wallpaper feels emotionally different than paint
• Where to start if you’re nervous (powder room strategy)

If you’ve ever thought, I love wallpaper… but I don’t trust myself with it, this episode is your guide.

Design isn’t about copying what looks good online. It’s about creating rhythm, mood, and atmosphere that supports better living.
