BRILLIANT OR BONKERS? Pattern clashing
“Surrounding yourself with patterns that inspire and bring you joy can never be a bad thing in my eyes. Tying designs together with a similar palette is the key to success – just have fun! It is important to create balance, so with patterns on upholstery and curtains, keep walls to a complementary block colour.”
“I actually love a good pattern clash – but that’s the crucial word: good. Pulling it off is an art form and while a matchy-matchy finish isn’t my thing either, playing it safe with a cohesive theme, such as botanicals or geometrics, is the best way to avoid what could result in a headache every time you enter the room.”
