Bold patterns are just like an interior design element – they help make a statement, can be thematic, and can be incorporated in several ways in your spaces. If you love the statement-worthy effect of these patterns, then further we’ll be sharing 5 tips on how you can use them in your home interiors. Let’s take a look:
1. In the middle of neutrality

If you’ve got a neutral themed interior design that is comprised mostly of light, understated colours such as beige, tan, cornsilk, sandstone, cream, and more, then having a boldly patterned area rug in the middle can be quite an effective way to spice things up. This pattern has the ability to create interest within the atmosphere and keeps the monotony of the neutral palette from kicking in.
2. In the form of furniture

2D patterns are not the only way to enhance the ambiance of your home. In fact, you can incorporate 3D patterns in your spaces quite easily these days in the form of décor and furniture. Coffee tables with geometric bottoms, sculptural artwork, etc. has a way of introducing pattern contrast in spaces that was never before possible until now.
3. What type of a pattern?

The type of pattern that you use in your spaces matters a lot. Contemporary style interior designs appreciate bold colours and sharp geometry while understated modern and minimalist style spaces are all about repetition. You have to be very careful about keeping things relevant within the context of your selected interior design or things can get visually cluttered.
4. Up and down

Most homeowners only think about introducing patterns in the floor or wall space of their homes, but what about the ceiling? Especially when you’ve got no false ceiling to keep things interesting. This is when boldly designed statement light fixtures come in. They’re usually suspended in highly visible spaces so that they can be seen and noted from anywhere within the room.
5. In colour format

An interesting but largely overlook part of pattern contrast is colours. They’re the most important aspect while designing your patterns. They have to be either vivid or understated depending on the theme of your home interior, but their presence matters a lot in the overall scheme of things.
