Looking at another pattern today in the world of design, Stripes. I love stripes of all sizes, whether they’re a wild bold striped wallpaper or paint treatment on the wall or the delicate stripes of a pinstripe suit. I can’t really tell you why stripes appeal to me so much, when I was a kid I loved striped wallpaper, was fascinated with candy canes and I always wanted a barber pole of my own (moving slanted stripes) but that’s a whole different post. Stripes are always popular in both home decor and fashion, whether they’re vertical and adding height to a room and a person or horizontal and providing a whole new element of visual interest. Let’s take a look at the world of stripes and what they have to offer, Enjoy!!!
This is an airport hotel in Berlin, Germany. Certainly grabs your attention.
I love this paint treatment, these are two different shades of gray paint, the two shades are right next to each other on the paint card. This looks so sharp with the blue in the artwork and the orange in the room.
I’m not sure if I could look at the floor while walking down this staircase, kind of messes with your eyes, but I like it.
This subtle striped rug adds interest to a room that’s very neutral otherwise.
Stripes and Chuck Taylors always go together.
Love how this striped fabric echoes the blue in the artwork across the room.
These striped houses are in Portugal, they look like candy.
The striped wallpaper adds a definite sophistication to this powder room.
A beautiful Oscar de la Renta Striped creation.
This is a great idea for a focus wall, horizontal stripes look awesome.
We’ve talked about decorating the ceiling before, this striped wallpaper is perfect to bring the eye up.
Stripes have always been in vogue.
These stripes add interest and pattern to a gray, black and white room.
Stripes are just one pattern going on in this room, AWESOME!!!!
