From wallpaper to upholstered furniture and anything in between, stripes are moving out of the seasonal realm and into all aspects of the home – whether in thick solid colours for the walls or thinner classic versions typical of classic bedding. Design Dispatch gathers a gallery of ideas to inspire your next decorating spree.
Upholstery
A striped sofa is a committed choice, but a bold one at that which will command attention in the living room.
Bolder upholstery
With moveable pieces such as armchairs and stools, it’s the ideal playground for experimentation with colours and combinations.
Walls
Applying a bold pattern to a wall, be it the kitchen or the bedroom, is a guaranteed way of making a talking point out of it.
Bedding
With plenty of soft furnishing opportunities in the bedroom, stripes can be applied to pieces large and small, whether a set of cushions, bedding or even the headboard.
Décor
Embrace a strong stripe with vivid colours through home décor and objets d’art that create interest, conversation and a bit of drama.
Carpeting
With its geometric colour combination and black-and-white striped edge, this rug is an example of how forward design decisions could draw attention to any floor, ceiling or nook within the home.
