The second one is the fake bookshelves one (at least for me). I think that the house really has been lived in with that hideous wall.

But yes there are plenty of bad staging photos, and at least one totally ridiculous photoshop (the sofa planted completely out of perpective and in front of a mirror that ought to be reflecting it).

I think the fake white bookshelf wallpaper has a certain aesthetic about it. I would like it in an AirBnB type of place, but definitely not in my own house.

I would also want it to actually fit on the wall and not be awkwardly cut off on the right edge.

well, either the 2nd photo is fake bookshelves (stock image, white-label), or it's a painting/decorating job gone horribly wrong lol

I’d guess it’s this. I think you can colour it yourself after you hang it.
