Check & plaid wallpaper

Checked & plaid wallpaper for every taste

Chequered or checkered patterns are timeless, have a high recognition value and spread cosiness and traditional values in interior and wall design. If you think of checked and plaid patterns, you often think of textiles with tartan, glencheck, Prince of Wales check, houndstooth, pepita, argyle and vichy. These are well-known check patterns with a long history and tradition. In fashion or when weaving textiles, checks represent a typical pattern (also called repeat), which is created by weaving, knitting, dyeing or printing.

The situation is similar with chequered wallpaper. The carrier material is usually printed with a two-colored checked pattern of square blocks, whose colors and sizes vary from wallpaper to wallpaper. More than two colors can also be processed, as it is the case with English or Scottish tartan.

Checks, which are called rhombus in geometry, present themselves on wallpapers in the most diverse designs. Leading manufacturers are turning the checked and plaid pattern into a classic, elegant, playful or nostalgic statement on the wall and have a matching wallpaper for every taste and interior style.

Chequered wallpaper – Order online at WALLCOVER

With checkered patterns, the kitchen and living room can be designed in a rustic or romantic English country style. The checks then appear classically in black and white, blue, grey, beige, old rose and red. However, wallpapers with checks and plaid patterns cannot be restricted to one color or one particular style. Whether Tartan, Pepita or Vichy, whether large or small, whether colorful or subtle - in our online shop you will find a large selection.

At WALLCOVER you can order high-quality non-woven wallpaper and vinyl wallpaper made by popular manufacturers. Matching single-color designs are available in the collections to highlight the chequered pattern on one or two walls. In combination with a plain wallpaper it is perfectly shown to advantage and the room does not look too cluttered.

By the way: the size of the motif is decisive for the effect of the wallpaper: large checks are perceived as contrasting or harmonizing color areas even from a greater distance. Small checked patterns, on the other hand, are only clearly visible from close up. When viewed at a distance, the different colors visually merge into one color, which makes the wallpaper look vivid. Checkered patterns leave plenty of room for creativity in wall design. With tartan, Vichy or plaid on the wall, the room becomes homely and cozy. Give your walls a chequered look and create an incomparable feel-good atmosphere!
