Interior Design Bold Stripes

Monday, May 10th, 2010

There are a million ways to fake the shape, size, form and flaws in a room. One of the best visual distractions is using stripes. As today was a pretty grey day in Edmonton I thought it would be lovely to bring in some color. Candy cane stripes are a bold statement that can add a lot of visual texture without necessarily adding cost or the need for many accessories. The stripe can weave you through a room or tell you where to look. It can make fat look thin and short look tall and can even throw off your depth perception. Stripes can be achieved with Paint, wall covering, fabric and a collage of other materials for any kind of DIY project.

Zebra Print Interior Design Products

Zebra can make for a bold and flavorful addition to spice up any room without adding any color.

The great products shown are:

www.zgallerie.com Zack accent chair approximately $750.00 I love this piece for how sharp, tailored and sophisticated it is. Add some red wall covering and a chandelier to have a romantic and invigorating bedroom retreat. OR you can even throw it in the living room with a plush sofa, glass and mirror for a dramatic statement with rich textures and visual stimulation.
www.venfield.com Zebra cubes with nickel nail head- These little stools show how sexy a little shape and some zebra print can make an accent piece of furniture.
www.nibarugs.com Zebra Area Rug – this piece is a super soft cut pile area rug that is perfect to sprawl out over and more cost effective than the real deal.
www.olystudio.com Sophie Chair – The best way to make a Renaissance old world charm room feel more contemporary, exotic and dramatic is to add Zebra Print to a classic piece. Oly Studio did it wonderfully with this Sophie chair. What other animal prints can we throw at this piece?
www.weaversart.com- luxury and texture collide when you make a hide area rug. For the more exotic animal aware maybe consider having www.kylebunting.com make you the same thing in cow hide.
www.olystudio.com Hadley bench- thin, crisp and sleek this piece is so feminine and eye catching. Consider having to of them at the foot of your bed- a his and hers to use only for putting on your fuzzy zebra print slippers!
www.vivariniglass.it Zebra collection- Vivarini has a beautiful glass collection with elegant forms, colors and textures. A great way to add a hint of Zebra without the fur.
www.venfield.com Zebra chair- This is a very well tailored piece and a great example of a way to bring back grandpas old wingback chair. Sit two of these in an entryway or in front of your fireplace for a cozy and inviting conversation starter. What a great way to inspire reading in front of a fire!
www.carinilang.com Zebra Brown- Simple, feminine and subtle this piece is a more gentle approach to bringing animal print into a room. The color makes it quiet but not boring. Great for a living room or bedroom and also appropriate as a wall hanging.
