Guestroom with tranquillity
by @nhdotdesign

Nadine is an interior designer and the creative mind behind @nhdotdesign. She has been excited about DETALE’s textured surfaces for a while, and when the EDGE collection launched, she was one of the first in Scandinavia to install this new wallpaper collection in her home.

Nadine, who runs her own interior design business and often juggles between many different styles, wanted the room to be simple and timeless. Therefore, she decided to go with the Modern Moscow M4, a minimalist design. In search of neutral colours, the choice was a taupe / beige colour (depending on the lighting), with swirls that reminded her of the well-known Japanese Zen gardens.

After a year of COVID and guests not visiting as often as before, she decided to put her energy into making a new and welcoming space for when family and friends would be back to visit. Below you find her guide to has upgraded her guest bedroom into a haven for her visiting guests.

The wall must be even, clean, and dry before applying wallpaper, thus old bumps of paint or dust must be removed first.
Tools: Paint roller, paintbrush, Stanley knife and a damp cloth or towel.

Since the EDGE collection is produced in a non-woven quality, there is no need to get frustrated with glue and paper. An adhesive is applied directly onto the wall with a paint roller, and a good idea is to go past the panel edges. Stick the wallpaper onto the wall and smoothen it out to get rid of air bubbles. Then, cut the top against the ceiling with a sharp Stanley knife and do the same on the bottom against the baseboard or floor. A metal filling knife could work as a guide to get the edges clean and straight.

When cutting, make sure to leave 5-10cm on top and bottom – close to panels. That way you can cut a clean line against the ceiling and base- or floorboard.
