It's time to go bold with your patterns this season with a selection of bright geometric prints that will create a visual focal point within your chosen space. The combination of complex patterns and bright colour schemes will look wonderful in contemporary and vintage home interiors. This type of interior design can be used to create a statement on a feature wall or flooring or alternatively can be used to accent your room across your soft furnishings and accessories. The versatile mix of colours means that it can be complemented by a wide variety of colour palettes making it the perfect choice for any room of the home.
If you're opting to use this trend across your walls, then a statement wallpaper may be the perfect choice for you. Opt for bright vivid neon’s or primary colour tones and a splatter of geometric shapes such as triangles, rectangles, octagons and hexagons to create a visual feature on a main feature wall or chimney breast area. If you're feeling more artistic then why not try your hand at creating the geometric patterns yourself using some masking tape and a variety of colour pots to create an abstract wall mural in your chosen interior space. You can even accent this design with some metallic silver or gold across the lines of your shapes to add a modern twist to this bright and eye-catching design. If you have a plain feature wall that needs some updating, then why not add a large geometric patterned canvas to your wall in a central position or add some artistic flair with a selection of coloured frames in a variety of shapes and angles that can be scattered across the wall in a gallery effect style.
Geometric patterned bedding is a hot choice this season and can be used to add a sense of colour and print to even the plainest of interior spaces. This bold patterned design will look wonderful as a central feature of your bedroom interior and can be coordinated with a bold geometric rug which will complement the look and create visual detail within your chosen space. A plain leather or upholstered sofa and armchair can be updated with a scattering of geometric patterned cushions in primary tones such as red, blue and green or neon colours such as emerald, blues and fuchsia that will update even the most minimal of interior designs. Mix and match with plain cushions in co-ordinating colours that will break up the geometric pattern and create and variation within your living room area. If you're feeling particularly brave you could always up for some bold geometric patterned curtains that will create colour and pattern on a plain wall and make a great alternative to a brightly coloured geometric wallpaper.
If you're looking to update your accessories then why not select a bright geometric patterned ceiling pendant which will create a focal point in any living room, dining room or bedroom area. This can be co-ordinated with matching table lamps or a selection of vases and candles that will scatter this look around the room dispersing its intensity for a subtler hint of geometric pattern. Plain painted furniture such as white, grey or cream will look great against such a bold interior backdrop however if you are feeling particularly artistic then why not decoupage or stencil the front of your drawers or door fronts in a bright geometric pattern that will add a punchy pop of colour and print to your interior space.
