Product Information

Full details

The City Romance Industrial Wallpaper by Galerie is an excellent choice for homeowners looking to achieve an edgy, modern, and sophisticated aesthetic without the intensive labor of masonry or plaster work. Featuring a distressed, worn-plaster look in a striking black tone, this wallpaper is perfect for creating a dramatic feature wall or a bold, immersive space in contemporary interiors. While the dark, moody finish offers a high-end designer look, potential users should note that the deep black pigment requires careful wall preparation to avoid show-through if your underlying wall surface has high contrast or texture.

FAQs

Is this wallpaper washable?

The paper is surface-cleanable with a dry, soft cloth, but it is not intended to be scrubbed with water or harsh detergents.

Does this require paste-the-wall or paste-the-paper application?

Standard wallpaper installation techniques apply. Please check the roll instructions to confirm the specific adhesive method recommended by the manufacturer.

Can I use this in a bathroom?

This wallpaper is not specifically designated for high-moisture environments; if used in a bathroom, ensure there is excellent ventilation to prevent peeling.

Will the black color fade in sunlight?

Like all dark pigments, prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight can lead to minor fading over many years. It is best suited for rooms without direct, intense southern exposure.

How many rolls do I need?

Measure the total width and height of your walls, accounting for the pattern repeat. It is always wise to order one extra roll to account for trimming errors or future repairs.

Troubleshooting

Visible seams between wallpaper strips

Ensure the wall was primed with a color-matched primer; if seams are light, use a small amount of matching black artist's chalk or marker to blend the edges.

Air bubbles trapped during installation

Gently smooth the paper from the center outward using a smoothing tool; for stubborn bubbles, pierce with a fine needle to release air and smooth flat.

Pattern alignment is difficult

Check that the first strip is perfectly level; industrial patterns are forgiving, but keeping the vertical bands consistent is key to the overall effect.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, contemporary industrial aesthetic
  • Effective at hiding minor wall imperfections due to the distressed texture
  • Suitable for both feature walls and full-room coverage
  • Easy to coordinate with modern, minimalist, or eclectic decor styles

Cons

  • Dark color may require a high-quality primer on light-colored walls to prevent seams from showing
  • Requires careful alignment of the vertical patterns to ensure a seamless look
  • The matte finish may show dust or fingerprints more easily than lighter wallpaper

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best installation, start with a clean, dry, and smooth wall surface. It is highly recommended to use a wall primer before installation to ensure the adhesive bonds evenly and to hide any stark base colors. When installing, use a sharp blade to trim excess paper for clean edges, and ensure you use a dedicated wallpaper adhesive suited for heavy-duty papers. To care for the wallpaper, gently dust with a soft, dry cloth or a microfiber duster. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing, as the matte finish of the distressed pattern can be easily damaged by excessive moisture or friction.
