In more recent years, I have slowly evolved into somewhat of a maximalist. I don’t need a lot of things but pattern on pattern is a love language of mine. You can see, for example, a piece by
Kevin Brent Morris
on a gold and white patterned wallpaper in my powder room that I recently designed.
The pattern behind the beetle, the pattern in the frame, and the pattern in the wallpaper all come together to both accentuate and contrast against each other.
In my dining room, you’ll see a
Hunt Slonem
bunny on top of a wallpaper mural in the perfect spot. The pink brings out the pretty light pink in the mural and it looks like a bunny might be frolicking through this scene full of greenery and florals.
Finally, in my living room (yes, I really went all out with wallpaper) you’ll see a lot of art that goes so beautifully with the subtle leafy vine pattern.
This light
blue color
is one of my favorite colors to decorate with and again, I love the contrast of the more organic pattern with something more solid and geometric like both
Angela Chruschiaki Blehm’s
“Oh” and
Katie Craig’s
striped piece. Wallpaper and art are just a winning combination in my book.
Below are some offering from the gallery and my pick for a fun wallpaper combination.
