Mix & Match Patterns In Your Home

Sometimes you can get bored of having the same styles or colours in your home. Trying to coordinate two colours or looking to find two colours that come from the same palette can become a pain; but why not mix and match your patterns.

Mixing and matching patterns can become a difficult task, especially if you’re not sure what goes best and how you can make it look right. Before you think about doing some spring decorating, read our helpful tips on mixing and matching patterns in your home.

Find Your Colour Palette:

Colour Palette

The biggest problem you face when mixing and matching patterns is trying to see what will look good together and what will clash. But before you get too frustrated with all the choices you need to make, think about the colour palette you want to have in your room. Remember, there are warm and cold sides to every colour palette, so if you do find yourself looking at a strong colour, you can always find a lighter colour further down the palette – you can also have two opposite colours together, this will give your room character.

All White Everything:

White Interior

If you feel confused about trying to work two different patterns together, don’t worry about it, and just think of the colour white! It is the easiest colour to work with, whether you go for the monochrome effect or you put navy and white together, you will always find the balance when using the colour white. Introduce patterns of that colour in stripes, polka dots, chevron stripes or bold prints, any of these types of prints will help you create a bold statement.

Large Prints Need Neutral Colour:

Bold Prints

Bold or large prints such as, leopard or zebra, can be used in a tasteful style when mixing and matching patterns. The number one rule here is to use neutral colours on the walls and floor, if you plan on using a bold print only place it in certain areas of the room and make it look evenly spread, accessorise the rest of the room with neutral furniture.

Find Inspiration From Wall Art Or An Ornament:

Wall Art

Many people don’t know where to start when decorating a room and it can get very confusing when you can’t find anything to match. Choose a piece of wall art or an ornament that you love and seek inspiration from that object, you will then be able to find a mixture of colours to blend into the object your basing the style around.
