  • Decorating with brick wallpaper is key for instantly adding a touch of industrial style to any living space.

    At the heart of the much-loved industrial look is exposed brickwork, celebrating the beauty of raw building materials. Although cool, exposing brick walls can be a messy job, if repointing is necessary to make the brickwork aesthetically pleasing, and it can't always be easily achievable in every style of property – new builds are a great instance where it most likely won't be viable. This is where you can be savvy with brick wallpaper.

    For a really authentic look why not go for a mural? We love this stunning photographic image of a weathered red brick wall - it's a digitally printed design adapted from a photo, so it really is the next best thing to actual brick. It's not cheap, therefore would be more of an investment piece - not an option if it's a space you plan to redecorate within a year or so. Overall mural H280cm W400cm. Supplied as a roll W50cm.
