Our whole house and most new houses here are wallpaper on every wall and ceiling  Tough, water-resistant, wipeable, plus all the kawaii patterns and textures. The whole catalog was a uniform $10/sq meter.

We have a house built in 1977. The living room and the two downstairs bedrooms both are laid out to have wallpaper hung over particular places on the drywall. Believe me, it's the least worst option.

I'm a filthy millenial surrounded by other filthy millenials who are mostly too broke to buy houses, so maybe wallpaper just isn't on our collective radar.

Speaking as someone who is in the process of dewallpapering a house: gently caress wallpaper forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever. I will grant the most minor of concessions when I say that modern wallpaper is significantly easier to strip than older stuff. Still a job you'd give to people you don't like, though.

Wallpaper is the loving worst and nobody ever does it right, just layering it over the last lovely wallpaper, or they don't align it properly, or it's bubbled, or any other number of easy ways to gently caress it up. My grandma's house has a wall with 10 layers of wallpaper on it (It was built in 1864) and aside from the time capsule novelty it's heinous. We do accent walls in our house, I think they look pretty great. Far superior to the eyesore that is wallpaper.

Yeah I'm pretty sure the alleged 5 star hotel we stayed in in Beijing had a brothel on site, some very expensive  massages available on the in room menu.That one had a clear glass wall with a venetian blind above the tub in the bathroom, clearly so you could always keep an eye on your guest, or look out the window while on the shitter.

Wallpaper is coming back, and you can get some really cool stuff with digital printing. Still kind of expensive, though, which is why I think people are doing the one-wall pop instead of whole rooms. I was debating this monstera print for a while.

Once you've got the folding working, you can do the assembly with just a couple tall guys. And if you want your building hooked up to outside water and electricity you'll need a couple guys anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Fu3J_x2wRA
