Use graphic wallpaper

Go for a modern take on a feature wall by covering an alcove or chimney breast in bold, graphic wallpaper. As these smaller areas won’t need more than one or two rolls to cover them, you can afford to spend a little more on the designs so check out the wide variety of designs available at Cole & Son. If you’re on a tight budget, Dulux’s has two affordable modern style wallpapers available. Chimney breast covered in Graphika wallpaper in Mustard by Dulux
