You just have to be careful about where you hang it, avoid places that will get wet like behind a sink or areas where you cook, but apart from that there are no rules!

When your kitchen is predominantly white and sleek to boot, choosing a wallpaper is actually a dream. Why? Because a white kitchen is a blank canvas and therefore pretty much anything goes. What we love about this kitchen is that the chosen wallpaper Gable by Farrow & Ball shows village and farmhouse scenes which at first thought may not match due to being quite trad, yet the stylised design works really well in this modern kitchen.

The inspiration for this Skylark wallpaper design from Miss Print is a birds eye view of our landscape. The lines represent the abstract shapes and patterns that can be found in our cities and the countryside that we know and love so much. The simplicity of the design and colour makes it ideal for a kitchen, especially one with contemporary units and accessories.

Although this Pomegranate Bazaar design by Little Greene is Baroque, the original was uncovered by the National Trust hiding beneath wall-hung tapestries in Wales. This particular colourway has a hint of seventies design to it. The cheerful colours mean you can have fun matching units and accessories to create a cohesive scheme throughout the kitchen and it looks fab with rustic wood too!

This stunning Bahama wallpaper from Elizabeth Ockford is so eye catching and therefore will really act as a focal point for your kitchen and will most certainly become the star of the show so to speak. When you choose a wallpaper as busy as this, keep the rest of the scheme simple. You could have white units as shown here, but equally, painted units in a colour pulled from the wallpaper would look as fabulous the green, pink, blue or orange would all work. Team with brass and wood accessories to add depth.

Interior designer, broadcaster and colour expert, Sophie Robinson, adores colour check out her IG feed for oodles of inspo! So when it came to decorating her kitchen, Sophie chose this bright and cheery Rabarber wallpaper. Designed on a dark background, the colours of the floral pattern really sing and it looks eye catching in Sophies country kitchen. The units are painted in Huntsmen Green by Zoffany that matches the wallpaper perfectly, and the dark wood worktop and floor both add a rustic element.
