Dare to Go Bold with Colours and Patterns
In maximalism, making a bold statement is what it’s all about. Search for wallpapers with big, bold patterns and vibrant colours that make an impact. Florals, geometric shapes, and abstract designs can all add energy and life to a room, creating a truly dynamic space.

Maximalism and Your Unique Taste
It’s essential to remember that maximalism doesn’t mean embracing disorder—it’s about expressing personal style in a daring way. Choose wallpaper designs that align with your taste, whether that’s intricate florals, retro geometrics, or abstract patterns. Balance is still important; while maximalism encourages diversity, a coherent theme keeps it from becoming chaotic. For example, pairing tropical patterns with vintage florals may feel mismatched, so it’s about finding harmony between wallpaper and decor. Even for those with an eclectic flair, maximalism benefits from some balance between the wallpaper and other elements in the room. Here are a few examples of spaces that have embraced maximalism while keeping a consistent theme.
