Tiles no longer have a monopoly in the bathroom! Wallpaper also finds its place. The proof in pictures, with 12 ways to create an original decoration in this pond.
Long a must-have in the bathroom, tiling is gradually giving way to other wall coverings. If paint is another safe bet, wallpaper, which has become essential for all interior design enthusiasts, has also made a place of choice.

There is therefore little risk of seeing it curl or take off. Want to freshen up your bathroom and create an original decor? Here’s what to find inspiration in the wallpaper department!
