Patterns are currently a stylish design trend precisely for this reason, and they can easily be incorporated into any piece of furniture. They are especially popular for sofas and chairs. You can also ease into decorating your room with patterned throw pillows, blankets and other embroidered d\u00e9cor, which can attract just as much attention.<\/p>\n<p>Ethnic kilim patterns are a particularly popular design trend right now, with prints coming from all corners of the world. These bright, geometric patterns can be found on many different furniture pieces as well as decorative accessories such as throw pillows and blankets. They consistently slip between modern and traditional design because they incorporate so many geometric shapes.<\/p>\n<p>Another steadfast stylish design trend that shifts between traditional and modern trends is black and white patterns. Stripes are a classic pattern that is always in style and can be incorporated into almost any furniture piece. \u00a0Honeycomb shapes and apple designs are also currently trendy.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re in the process of choosing a pattern for your new furniture, be sure to follow these quick tips.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pick a pattern that will last over time. Make sure you like the pattern and can see yourself enjoying it over time, not just because it\u2019s trendy.<\/li>\n<li>Keep the rest of the room neutral. You want your patterned piece to be a focal point. Too many patterns and colors can be very distracting.<\/li>\n<li>Try not to coordinate patterns. Matching sofas with curtains or drapes is a little outdated, so instead concentrate on how to make your patterned furniture pop in an otherwise neutral room.<\/li>\n<li>Use florals with caution. Floral patterns can be trendy, especially in <a href=\"\/blog\/shabby-chic-trends-know-your-decorating-style\/\">shabby chic rooms<\/a>, but don\u2019t overdo it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adopt this design trend and pick an eye-catching pattern to transform an otherwise neutral room into an exciting, new and attractive space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Updated Thursday, August 11, 2011 Bright colors, shapes, and patterns add personality to an otherwise neutral room.
