Rasch wallpaper 1556436 | An elegant grey shade with a subtle texture

Before starting work and hanging the wallpaper, please pay attention to the following aspects: check the article number, the batch number, and the pattern repeat symbols. Please keep the control slip and wallpaper samples.

Carefully prepare the surface

Surface preparation – the surface must be dry, sound, capable of absorbing moisture evenly, clean, neutral, and smooth. Old wallpaper and water-soluble coatings must be removed. Cracks and holes should be filled with a spackling compound if necessary, while highly absorbent surfaces must be pre-primed with wallpaper paste (sizing). Old, unstable surfaces that cannot bear a load must be primed with a specially designed wallpaper primer.

Attention! Non-woven wallpaper must be hung on a uniformly colored surface. For this reason, we recommend applying a pigmented base coat under the wallpaper.

The adhesive must be applied directly to the wall.

We recommend using a high-quality, reliable brand of adhesive specifically designed for non-woven wallpaper, and following the preparation instructions provided. Thoroughly mix the non-woven wallpaper adhesive according to the manufacturer's guidelines. Using a roller, apply the adhesive to the wall over the width of the wallpaper roll.

 Hanging the wallpaper.

Hanging non-woven wallpaper always begins "from the light," which means that wallpapering the walls should start near a window. Ensure that the first strip of wallpaper is applied in a perfectly vertical line and properly aligned vertically, so that subsequent strips can be hung straight.

After the wall is coated with adhesive, the non-woven wallpaper is applied directly to the wall and smoothed out with a roller; moreover, this type of wallpaper requires no soaking time. Using a soft wallpapering brush, a cloth, or a microporous rubber roller, press the strip firmly against the wall and smooth it out to prevent the formation of air bubbles.

Trimming the excess and finishing up...

Trim the overhanging edges of the wallpaper at the top and bottom. Hang the subsequent strips of wallpaper perfectly edge-to-edge (butt joint). A conical seam roller can be used at the joints. Please note that strong heat and drafts must be avoided during application and drying. The optimal working temperature ranges from 18 °C to 25 °C.

Additional tips

Another advantage of decorating walls with non-woven wallpaper is that, if applied properly, it can be easily and completely removed dry from the wall during your next renovation.

The main distinguishing feature of this wallpaper is its distinctly neutral, medium grey (silver-grey) tone, enhanced by a subtle and elegant linen-like texture with discreet horizontal lines.

In interior design and environmental psychology, this medium grey tone is an indispensable tool for creating modern, structured and intellectually stimulating spaces.

Psychological aspect and impact on the space:

• Absolute neutrality and balance: Psychologically, the colour grey is the ideal compromise – it is neither particularly stimulating (like warm tones) nor overly relaxing. Subconsciously, it creates a sense of stability, order and inner peace. It is a ‘quiet’ backdrop that helps to organise one’s thoughts and calms the mind.

• Visual coolness and elegance: Unlike shades of sand or cream, this cool grey brings a sense of freshness and airiness to a room. Combined with the fine texture of the fabric, the wallpaper avoids the harsh ‘concrete’ coldness, retaining a refined tactile appeal without making the room feel gloomy.

• Focus and distraction: This background deliberately does not demand attention. It serves as the perfect, neutral canvas, allowing other elements in the room – vibrant works of art, architectural details or designer furniture – to stand out fully, without creating any visual conflict.

Expert recommendations for room selection: Thanks to their ability to bring a sense of cool tranquillity and modern elegance to a room, these wallpapers are particularly suitable for:

• South- or west-facing rooms: where intense afternoon sun can overheat the room; the cool grey tone will visually ‘cool’ the space and balance the room’s atmosphere.

• Home offices and workspaces: to promote deep concentration and a structured working environment, whilst minimising cognitive distractions.

• For modern and minimalist interiors: it will fit perfectly into homes with a Scandinavian, industrial or urban minimalist style.
