Interior design styles have been finding their way into private rooms for some years now. The skilful use of wallpaper and colours plays an important role in this.
Since the end of the 19th century, the hotel has been a place of longing for creative minds and thinkers. To this day, it is a place where you can relax and at the same time observe the world and be inspired. Over the last hundred years or more, a unique hotel interior style has developed. And for some years now, elements and moods from the hotel industry have been finding their way into private rooms. Whether classic luxury hotel style, minimalist Scandinavian style or the interior of eclectic boutique hotels - luxurious simplicity, casual, sophisticated elegance and unobtrusive, yet high-quality comfort also work within your own four walls. You can find matching wallpapers and colours for the design in the MEINEWAND shop.
Classic luxury hotel style
The classic luxury hotel style, which was developed at the end of the 19th century for hotels such as the Ritz in Paris, is characterised by timeless elegance. It is characterised by muted colours that are often combined with gold or silver accents.
Materials such as velvet, silk, leather, marble and dark wood give the interior a luxurious touch. The furniture and accessories are classic yet opulent. Generous beds with upholstered headboards and chandeliers characterise the picture.
Wallpapers with a damask look, classic botanical patterns or light embossing are suitable for this style. Silk and fabric wallpapers also provide an elegant feel. In terms of colour, beige, cream, dark blue, bordeaux and gold are ideal - a combination that creates a warm, luxurious atmosphere with a touch of tradition.
Modern hotel style
The modern hotel style that developed in the early 2000s is characterised by minimalism, clean lines and simple elegance. Instead of opulent details, reduced forms and functional aesthetics take centre stage. Examples of this style can be found in renowned design hotels such as The Standard or the Aman Resorts.
The materials used are dominated by glass, metal, concrete and light-coloured wood, complemented by subtle fabrics that create a restrained yet inviting atmosphere. The furniture is mostly simple designer pieces that impress with their design language. Large windows provide plenty of natural light, while indirect lighting usually sets specific accents in the room in the dark.
Smooth non-woven wallpaper and wallpaper with a subtle texture are suitable for designing rooms in a modern hotel style. When it comes to patterns, you should opt for minimalist, geometric shapes, monochrome looks or concrete and wood effects. In terms of colour, grey, white, black and earth tones are ideal. All of this ensures calm, clear lines and modern elegance with a pleasant understatement.
Boutique hotel style
The boutique hotel style is characterised by an individual, creative interior design that combines vintage and boho influences. Boutique hotels focus on unique design concepts that clearly stand out from classic hotel interiors.
Unconventional material combinations of wood, rattan, velvet and expressively patterned fabrics are typical, giving the room an inviting, personal touch. The furniture is often a mixture of unique vintage pieces, designer chairs and playful accessories.
Examples of this style are boutique hotels such as The Hoxton or the 25hours Hotels. Strikingly patterned non-woven wallpaper, textile wallpaper or wallpaper with a vintage look are used as wallpaper. Jungle prints, botanical and artistic patterns work particularly well here. In terms of colour, bold accents as well as warm pastel shades or deep colours such as emerald green and mustard yellow are suitable.
Scandinavian hotel style
The restrained yet inviting style that characterises northern European interior design is also reflected in Scandinavian hotels.
Minimalist non-woven wallpapers in light colours, with delicate geometric or botanical patterns, stripes or a wood look are suitable for this. When choosing colours, white, light grey, beige and soft blue and green tones come into question. All of this creates a typically Scandinavian, light, airy atmosphere that radiates warmth.
Urban loft hotel style
Hotels in an urban loft style skilfully use industrial design. Wallpapers with a concrete or brick look, metal or leather look go well with this. The patterns can be plain or raw and irregular. The colour spectrum ranges from dark tones such as anthracite or black to dark brown and brick red.
Tropical resort style
The style inspired by hotels on Southeast Asian islands such as Bali is characterised by warm, natural materials and handmade furniture made from woven materials.
Natural fibre wallpapers made of bamboo or sisal are suitable for implementing this style in private bedrooms. Patterns include palm tree designs, botanical motifs and jungle prints. Earth tones, shades of green or soft blue round off the relaxing, natural and subtly exotic effect.
French château style
The style of French château hotels is characterised by opulent furniture and wall coverings with a patina.
Silk wallpapers, fabric-look wallpapers or wallpapers with a slightly stronger embossing are suitable for realising this style. Classic, ornate ornaments, floral patterns and borders are ideal patterns. Pastel shades, gold, warm off-white and blush pink emphasise the romantic, opulent and luxurious look.
Whether classically elegant, minimalist-modern or playfully creative - the variety of hotel styles is inspiring more and more living spaces. Wallpaper and colours play a central role in bringing the atmosphere of a luxurious, inviting and stylish ambience into the home.
