Hi @Brian, I’m glad you like the suggestions. With regards to the brick wallpaper I think going for the white will definitely give your space a more light and airy feel and make it look really on trend. The wallpaper is obviously a flat print as opposed to the real 3 dimensional look you would get from brick tiles, however you can see from the picture how the print of the bricks shows interesting depth and shadows to achieve that more authentic look. I think using lighting against the wallpaper would still highlight the realistic looking shadows in the wallpaper, to give you a striking atmospheric look. Graham and Green do have a really good returns policy so it might be worth ordering some wallpaper to see how it looks in the space, with the option to return it if you’re not happy with the effect. Great news about the wallpaper, its definitely one of my favourites and for a bedroom I think it will look fantastic. I think for a more subtle pop of colour that draws the eye, painting just the recesses of your dining area will work well to frame and zone that function in the space, giving it its own identity to also break up the open planned space. Leaving the TV wall white will add bigger emphasis on the brick paper making that the real feature of the space which I think will work really well in your space, especially with the other pops of colour in your sofa. I hope this is helpful, good luck with the decorating - if you would like to speak to me directly about your project or any other design queries giving you a headache, please call me on 0115 7842642 for a free chat.

Agree with above comments. If you did use a heavy duty lining paper it would need to be applied horizontally but even then you may get problems of the texture showing through, unevenness at the joins where it won’t adhere because of the texture, bubbles or lifting because of the extra layers, and it might make it difficult to remove later on because of the extra adhesive and paint. I would either paint with a trade Matt paint so the texture is not so obvious or strip and re do.

Have you tried this company? They offer samples too. https://www.wallpaperdirect.com/wallpapers/textured I know you can get some stunning grasscloth wallpapers but its very much budget dependant. How much of the room where you planning on doing?
