Wallpaper borders can be purely decorative features or they can serve a more practical purpose, such as disguising a crack in a wall. Wallpaper borders are also useful for altering the apparent proportions of a room. By running the border at, say, the height of a traditional dado, you can visually break up the dimensions of a room -useful when you want to create an intimate, cozy atmosphere in a large or imposingly proportioned area. You can also use wallpaper borders to enhance the visual impact of a room's architectural features - stairways can look very stylish, for example, if they are outlined with a suitable border paper, or you can emphasize the slope of a ceiling or window recess in an Attic room by following its line with a strip of border paper.
