Round Design Elements

Circular shapes will soften your design style.

The possibilities are almost limitless. Even in the feng shui concept of interior design, round shapes are important. Feng shui is about balancing five elements, one of which is metal. The metal element is expressed as a round shape in decor; and round design elements are believed to bring clarity, precision, freshness and equality into a room. The possibilities for adding round shapes to your home environment are almost unlimited: - Circular or oval rugs - Round pillows - Curved patterns in wallpaper or upholstery fabric - Cylindrical, round or oval accessories – such as vases, bowls and urns - Disk-shaped tables – including dining tables, end tables and coffee tables - Round light fixtures or lamps - A circular sofa sectional - Elliptical or round mirrors or artwork - Spiral staircases - And if you’re remodeling, round windows and arch top doorways or windows – or you can change the shape of a room to have a rounded window bay. Think outside the box and smooth out the hard edges in your home.
