2013 Decor Trends – Seeing Stripes

Posted on February 25, 2013 by Suzy Q

This year we are not only seeing stripes on the catwalks but throughout upholstering, wallpaper, and even our ceilings! Stripes are yet another exciting trend flooding the design scene and designers are putting them just about anywhere to surprise us. Get creative with stripes and add them throughout your home in unexpected places to create interest and drama. Just make sure you get it right by using pastel colors to avoid harsh, bold lines.

Color Blocking – What it’s all about!

Posted on February 6, 2013 by Suzy Q

Looking for a simple way to refresh your home for 2013? Try color blocking! That’s right, it’s not only for the fashionistas out there and their wardrobes; this year color blocking has taken a whole new spin from our floors to the ceiling. So how does it really work? The same way you would with your wardrobe, picking colors that go well together in the color wheel and scattering them throughout your home.

You can practice this technique with vibrant colored walls, bright works of art, and over-sized statement cushions. Even brightly upholstered chairs can do the trick or framed wallpaper can work well to create color blocking against neutral walls. A fuzzy bright rug is also welcome and guaranteed to bring in loads of color and energy along with it!
