Smarten up your home yourself. We’ll explain step by step how to achieve the perfect wallpapering result. From room preparation, to pre-treating the base surface and selecting the wallcovering and a good colour match – you’ll find answers to almost all questions here.
There are simply no limits to your imagination and creative freedom: achieve your dream look with bold colours and striking patterns or reserved shades and smooth surfaces – and do so simply and easily with our wide range of paintable wallcoverings.
