How to measure your wall

Simply measure the width and height of your entire wall. We produce your wallpaper exactly to your specifications, but we recommend adding a 5 cm safety margin to both width and height. Below you'll find tips for different wall types.

Standard walls

Measure the width and height of the entire wall. Double-check your measurements carefully. We produce your wallpaper exactly to your specifications, but recommend adding a 5 cm safety margin to both width and height.

Standard walls

Sloped walls

Measure the wall at its highest and widest point. You can ignore any slopes. The wallpaper will be printed as a complete rectangle or square, and the sloped sections are trimmed during installation. Recommended safety margin: 5 cm in width and height.

Sloped walls

Multi-sloped walls

Measure the wall at its longest point, both in width and height. The wallpaper will be produced as a complete rectangle, and the angled sections are trimmed during installation. Recommended safety margin: 5 cm in width and height.

Walls with doors, windows or other obstacles

Measure the width and height of the entire wall. All obstacles are cut out during installation. We produce your wallpaper exactly to your specifications, but recommend adding a 5 cm safety margin to both width and height.

Multiple walls

Add together the widths of all your walls and include 5 cm per wall as a safety margin. Then measure the height from the highest point and add 5 cm as well. You can order the wallpaper as one continuous piece.

As with sloped walls, measure the highest and lowest point for the height. The same applies to the width. All sloped sections are trimmed during installation. Recommended safety margin: 5 cm (2 inches) in width and height.
