Be wowed by realistic metallic wallpapers
These incredible wallpapers will give you the ultimate hotel style
It probably hasn't escaped your attention that copper is everywhere. With brass being the newest hot metal on the block, is bronze on the horizon, too? Either way, the trend for metallics is still sizzling and won't be going anywhere any time soon. So how do you use it in your home? Accessories are an easy way to get that glow, but if you're feeling brave, go all out and use statement metallic wallpaper for a look that will set your room alight.
You'd expect to see the wallpapers in the new collections below to grace the walls of a rather swanky restaurant or exclusive hotel, but thanks to advances in wallpaper printing, you can have that uber-cool, hotel style at home (and for less than a stay in said smart hotels... just!). The incredible matt, shiny and tactile finishes have to be seen to be believed and although the prices may still limit their use to just a feature wall, they'll still definitely make a stunning statement.
The shiny - and they really are shiny - new wallpapers from Harlequin, the Carlucci di Chivasso range at JAB Anstoetz and Élitis perfectly showcase the cutting-edge effects that give them their glam look and tactile finishes.
1) Anthology 03 collection, Harlequin
The ultra glam Anthology 03 range from Harlequin has been inspired by
industrial materials with an opulent twist. Look for the effect of
beaten and oxidised metal, string and wood imprints that have been
brought to life with beaded, sparkling surfaces, textured and foil
finishes.
These stunning, shimmering wallpapers are inspired by industrial materials.

The starting point for the metal-tile-design Oxidise wallpaper was a rusty box transformed
with a shining foil finish.
