What is Color Drenching?
Color drenching is a design technique where a single color is used extensively throughout a space, creating a cohesive and immersive environment. This trend has historical roots in the opulent interiors of the past but has evolved to fit modern aesthetics. By using one color across walls, ceilings, and even furniture, color drenching creates a seamless and bold look that can make a room feel both expansive and intimate. The benefits of this technique include a strong visual impact, a sense of unity, and the ability to highlight architectural features.

The Art of Utilizing Every Wall
Recently, wallpaper was often used on a single accent wall to add a pop of color or pattern. However, the trend of utilizing every wall in a room is gaining traction. This approach involves covering all walls with wallpaper, creating a more immersive and cohesive look. Unlike the accent wall, which can sometimes feel disconnected from the rest of the room, full-wall utilization ensures that the design flows seamlessly throughout the space. This technique can dramatically transform a room, making it feel more dynamic and visually interesting.
