It’s easy. Just add one home furnishing element,
such as a throw pillow, picture or chair; then repeat.
Interior design elements that lend themselves to pairing include:
- Furniture, such as chairs, ottomans, end tables, even sofas
- Throw pillows and decorative towels
- Artwork hanging on walls or standing on tables
- Mirrors, lamps and light fixtures
Pairs add flexibility too. You can easily move them to change the function of a room for a party or other event. And if you buy new furniture, a pair of items is easier to re-arrange in the same room or settle harmoniously into another room. Even when you move, pairs of home elements are more flexible to fit into a new house and new decor.
The pairing concept can be applied to colors too. Selecting a color palette for your home with two complementary colors is an effective decorating strategy. For example:
- Brown and Ivory
- Indian Red and Sage Green
- Black and White
- Chocolate Brown and Powder Blue
Let’s sum it up. One plus one is more than two in home fashions. Decorating in pairs makes a beautiful design statement.
