Dining room wallpaper

Dining rooms are made for drama. A dark botanical, a sweeping chinoiserie scene, or a rich floral behind the host's chair rewards sustained attention over a dinner in a way that plain paint simply cannot. These are our picks for the room that earns its boldness.

Expert advice

Styling your dining room

The end wall

In a rectangular dining room, paper the wall at the short end — behind the host's seat. It becomes the focal point for every guest across the table, and at a candlelit dinner, it will look extraordinary.

Dark and dramatic

Dining rooms tolerate bold choices better than any other room. A deep botanical or a rich chinoiserie in a dark ground is sophisticated at dinner and still striking in daylight. Don't let anyone talk you into something safer than you want.

Chinoiserie and the art of the room

Chinoiserie panels are one of the oldest wallpaper traditions — and one of the most effective. A single scenic design on the main wall creates the feeling of a room designed around a piece of art.
