Tip #1 – Contrast Is Key

A common mistake people run into when mixing furniture is trying to make it look too cohesive. Too many similar textures and patterns can lead to a boring, repetitive look. Instead, we recommend creating a visual contrast to make things more exciting. Explore options with different appeals, and use them to make each other stand out. This will give your space more character and volume!

Tip #2 – Make A Bold Statement

Don’t be afraid of a bold color palette. You need shades that make a statement when placed together. We suggest picking a color that pops and pairing it with an opposing shade. For example, the classic black and white style has a timeless appeal because they contrast in a way to make each other stand out. If you’ve been thinking about bright, unique fabric for your new favorite sofa– go for it. It’s a great place to start when mixing and matching your furniture!

Tip #3  – Play With Different Patterns

Mixing styles can get complicated when you start to work with patterns, but there is always a way to make it work. Layering patterns that are too alike can overpower the design and leave it lacking personality. Instead, look for furniture with similar aspects, like a chair with wooden legs and a couch with a wooden frame. This helps connect the styles without making them feel too matchy-matchy.

Tip #4 – Let Your Style Guide Your Choices

At the end of the day, it’s essential to your style as a compass to your design. Don’t pick out pieces just because they match well. Choose from a variety of styles you enjoy, and figure out how to make them work together. This way, your space will reflect your personality and always make you happy.
