Horizontal or vertical stripes add definition and perspective to a plain room. Stripes are lively, young and happy; use different paint effects together such as Dulux Design Metallic, Silk and Pearl, or you can stick to the same effect and vary the colour or shade. This is a much cheaper option than wallpaper and can be easily changed by painting over the whole wall or by simply updating the colour of one stripe.

| Make an impact with stripes! |
Make sure you plan your design while the room is still furnished as it will affect your perception of how wide and where the stripes need to be.
If you’re having trouble visualising, get some coloured pieces of paper and stick them to the wall where the stripes will be. Use differing widths to see which one you think works best.
This look also works well in children's rooms as you can choose the colours based on your child's current favourites. If you only paint one wall behind the bed then it becomes easy to change down the track when your little one decides she now loves yellow!
