I am digging #1 and 3. Seems like wallpaper is best in powder rooms (sink + toilets only) as moisture from baths & showers might ruin the paper. Also, should wallpaper be omitted above the sink to avoid it being ruined or is the paper coated to become water resistant? Just wondering.
You could always add a clear plastic splash back behind the sink to deal with splashes, if you were worried.
I am a longtime fan of big prints in powder rooms. There's something so cozy about it.
I think these particular prints are a bit too large for me but I like the wall paper in the powder rooms idea. It does make it cozy as DULCIBELLA said above.
love the map room.
I think the key is to have elements break up the pattern. A window, some art, things should allow the big prints to be in the background rather than be the entire focus of the room. When you walk into a small room and get smacked in the face with a big print, it usually means that there aren't enough elements to complement it.
I really like the world map one. However, having removed all the wallpaper from my childhood bedroom three times (well, I barely helped the first time, but it was ALL me the third time) and then replaced it twice (finally, the third time, I painted), then having a nightmare of a time trying to remove the improperly-applied wallpaper in my in-laws' kitchen, I don't know if I have the endurance for dealing with wallpaper ever again, no matter how nice it looks.
#1 is grand.
The map bathroom with the mirror...like it a lot!
Love the wallpaper! A little more tame and kid-friendly version:

I loved maps and geography as a kid...but maybe I was weird.
