I have always and will always love bright color combinations, layered patterns and bold statements. While it's not everyone's cup of tea, it brings joy to my life and a smile to my face.
With spring peeking in, I thought I would embrace my true love and feature some beautiful floral living rooms from House & Garden. These spaces will hopefully convert anyone reading into color-loving 'bold-ist' like me!
The jewel tones of the two living rooms above pull at my heart strings. Yet its the mix of amazing floral patterns that I really love.
As you will notice in both living rooms, the floral patterns are at the forefront and every other accent is a solid color. This will help to make keep the room looking chic and not make you and your guests dizzy.
I love the addition of the floral accent rug in the image on the right. Make sure when you are layering floral patterns you switch up scale - the large scale of the rug works perfectly with the smaller scale floral pattern on the sofa and the throw pillows.
On the left, that beautiful, bold wallpaper breathes life into the room, while the fuchsia drapes and jewel-tone accents bring fun and femininity to the space.
These next two floral living rooms are a more simplistic application of this beautiful look. Again the large scale area rug makes a lovely feature, while the creamy walls subdue the space.
Small decorative vases filled with wild flowers and antique floral paintings complete the look for a space that exudes a wonderful, vintage softness.
Another way to incorporate a beautiful, understated floral pattern is to repeat the same pattern in different applications.
As you see in the bottom image above, this modern take on shabby chic style is beautiful and approachable. Wallpaper, drapery and accent pillows in the same fabric really tie the room together and create a whimsically floral living room space.
These vignettes of chaises are the perfect way to end the round-up. They really show the many ways you can introduce the floral look in your space.
On the left we have a mid-century inspired look while on the right we have an antique-inspired and feminine style. Both layer pattern, color, texture and style in the best ways, and both truly speak to the innate sense of spring.
How will you include spring florals in your living room?
