Choose a miniature scale and pattern repeat
Separate wall dimensions from motif size, with worked 1:6, 1:12 and 1:24 examples.
Open Miniature Print Workshop →Two measurements do different jobs
Wall dimensions determine the amount of paper. Pattern repeat determines the size and spacing of the design on that paper. A 120 mm full-size repeat prints as 20 mm at 1:6, 10 mm at 1:12 and 5 mm at 1:24. Changing the repeat lets the same geometric design read as broad stripes, fine wallpaper or small floor tiles.
Use the mode that matches your measurement
In miniature mode, a 180 mm high wall remains 180 mm at every selected scale. In full-size mode, a 216 cm high wall becomes 180 mm at 1:12 or 90 mm at 1:24. Use one method throughout a room. If a supplied kit wall differs from a theoretical scale conversion, the measured kit wall is the dimension that the paper must cover.
Compare motifs in the preview
Start with one design and adjust repeat before changing colors. For floorboards, the repeat controls the repeating board unit; the result is a decorative surface rather than a reproduction of a particular real flooring product. The furniture and framed artwork in the room preview are decorative references and are excluded from downloads. Print a small test when the smallest details matter.
