How to Measure

Measure the full wall at its widest and highest points, including doors, windows, sloped ceilings, stairs, cabinets, mirrors, electrical sockets, and other fixed features. Enter your exact wall width and height. Our production team automatically adds a 2-inch (5 cm) safety margin for precise trimming, ensuring a perfect fit during installation.
For unusual walls or additional examples, follow our wallpaper measuring guide.


  1. Standard Wall

    Measure the widest width and tallest height.

  2. Walls with Obstacles

    Measure the full wall. Ignore doors, windows and other obstacles.

  3. Sloped Walls

    Measure as a complete rectangle. Excess wallpaper is trimmed after installation.

  4. Stairs

    Measure the vertical height and horizontal width. Do not measure diagonally.

Installation

Simple steps for the best long-lasting results

  1. PREPARE THE WALL

    Ensure the wall is clean, dry, smooth and stable. Remove dust, grease, loose paint and old wallpaper. Repair any holes or cracks.

  2. CHECK PAINT

    The paint should be fully cured (minimum 3–4 weeks). Use a matte or eggshell finish. Avoid fresh, damp or peeling paint.

  3. ALIGN & APPLY

    Check the panel order and pattern alignment, then apply each panel carefully with a soft smoother to remove bubbles and secure the edges.

  4. DRY & SET

    Allow the wallpaper to set for 24–48 hours. Avoid washing, heavy cleaning or placing items against the wall during this time.

ROOM CONDITIONS: Install wallpaper in normal room conditions on a clean, dry, smooth wall with fully cured paint. Avoid very cold, hot, humid, damp, or freshly painted surfaces for the best long-lasting result.

Why Custom Size Matters for Wood Wall Mural

A wood wall mural works best when the plank scale, grain direction, pattern repeat, and overall layout are matched to the wall dimensions and room design. Wood-effect murals can lose their realistic appearance when important grain details, plank lines, or decorative patterns are interrupted by furniture placement or awkward cropping.


Each wood wall mural is printed to your exact wall measurements rather than a standard size. This allows the design to fit the surface more naturally, improves panel alignment, and provides greater control over the placement of grain patterns, plank effects, and focal details throughout the mural.


Custom sizing is especially useful behind beds, sofas, TV units, dining tables, reception counters, office desks, hotel headboards, restaurant feature walls, hallway displays, and commercial interiors. Before ordering, measure the full wall carefully and consider the location of windows, doors, shelves, mirrors, lighting, cabinets, and built-in features to achieve the most balanced final result.

How to Choose Wood Wallpaper

Start with the mood you want the wall to create. Light oak, beige wood, and whitewashed planks feel softer for bedrooms, Scandinavian rooms, Japandi interiors, and smaller spaces. Walnut, brown wood, barn wood, reclaimed timber, and blackened wood effects create more depth for TV walls, offices, restaurants, hotels, lounges, and rustic feature walls.
Pattern direction matters. Vertical slat wallpaper can make the wall feel taller and more structured. Horizontal plank wallpaper feels relaxed and rustic. Herringbone or chevron wood wallpaper adds movement, so it works best when the center of the pattern can stay visible.

Wood Effect Realism and Material Limits

Wood wallpaper is a printed wood-look surface. It can create the appearance of oak, walnut, barn wood, gray planks, whitewashed boards, vertical slats, herringbone, or reclaimed timber through printed grain, knots, shading, color, and texture artwork.
It should be used as a decorative dry-wall finish, not as real wood cladding. It does not provide raised timber depth, acoustic performance, impact resistance, water resistance, or the durability of real wood panels. This distinction is especially important for bathrooms, kitchens, hospitality spaces, and walls exposed to daily wear.

Where Wood Wallpaper Works Best

Wood wallpaper works best on dry decorative feature walls where the printed grain, plank, or slat effect can be seen clearly. Good locations include the wall behind a bed, sofa, TV unit, dining table, desk, console, reading chair, reception counter, cafe seating wall, restaurant wall, hotel headboard, hallway, office wall, or retail display.
For bathrooms or powder rooms, use wood wallpaper only on suitable dry walls away from direct water, wet zones, heavy steam, heat, and moisture-damaged surfaces. For kitchens, keep it away from repeated splashing, grease, and high-heat areas unless the selected material and installation method are suitable for that exact use.

How to Coordinate Wood Wallpaper Murals with Your Interior

Wood wallpaper pairs well with linen, boucle, leather, stone, marble, concrete, black metal, brass, ceramic, wool, rattan, plants, cream, beige, brown, gray, olive, black, and warm lighting. If the wood effect is dark or heavily grained, keep nearby furniture simpler. If the design is pale and subtle, add depth with textured rugs, lamps, plants, books, ceramics, and layered fabrics.
For a Scandinavian or Japandi look, use light wood tones, cream, beige, black accents, linen, and minimal furniture. For rustic interiors, use barn wood effects, woven texture, aged metal, warm lighting, and natural fabrics. For modern commercial spaces, use vertical slat effects, stone, simple signage, and controlled lighting.

Wood Wallpaper for Homes and Commercial Spaces

At home, wood wallpaper works well in bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, offices, TV walls, hallways, entryways, reading corners, powder rooms on suitable dry walls, and media walls. It is useful when the room needs warmth or a natural-look surface without installing real timber.
In commercial interiors, wood wallpaper can create warm feature walls in hotels, restaurants, cafes, offices, salons, studios, boutiques, retail stores, lounges, reception areas, corridors, and hospitality spaces. For high-traffic projects, Commercial Wallpaper is usually the safer material choice.

Wood Wallpaper Styles in This Collection

Choose oak wallpaper for soft warmth, walnut wallpaper for depth, gray wood wallpaper for modern restraint, barn wood wallpaper for rustic character, whitewashed wood wallpaper for lighter rooms, vertical slat wallpaper for architectural rhythm, and herringbone wood designs for a more decorative feature wall. For small rooms, choose lighter tones and controlled grain. For large walls, wider planks and stronger printed texture can create a more complete focal point.

Order Custom Wood Wallpaper

Every wood wallpaper mural is made to order based on your selected wall size and material. Order a sample first to compare grain detail, plank scale, printed texture, color tone, and material finish in your room lighting. Before ordering the full wall, review where the main plank direction, slat rhythm, herringbone center, or reclaimed wood texture will sit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does wood wallpaper feel like real wood?

Yes, our wood murals are printed in high-resolution textures that mimic real grain, knots, and planks. With proper lighting and placement, they can closely resemble actual wood panels—without the cost or installation effort.

What styles work best with wood wallpaper?

Wood murals can suit rustic, Scandinavian, industrial, farmhouse, or Japandi interiors. Lighter woods offer a soft, airy feel, while darker tones can bring warmth and richness to a space.

Can wood wallpaper be used in a modern home?

Absolutely. Clean-lined wood textures or vertical slat effects can add warmth and balance to modern spaces. It might help soften stark walls without compromising minimal aesthetics.

Where does wood wallpaper look best?

It may work well behind a bed, TV unit, hallway wall, reading nook, or office corner. These murals often bring texture and depth to spaces that need visual interest but not bold color.

How do I style a room with a wood mural?

Keep it grounded. Use natural fibers, simple furniture, and warm lighting to enhance the texture of the mural. Adding plants or ceramic accents might also help complete the earthy look.
