I am enjoying the resurgence of paisley in interior design today. Not only because of the points I touched upon in our June Newsletter but, because the work designers and artisans are creating today offer so many different resources for extending the use of the pattern, such as reversing and mixing them with contemporary styles and geometric designs. They are being made to work well with stripes and graphics as well.
There are variations available that give a room a very lush appeal, creating a luxurious feel to your space.

To the more exuberant
Take a look at the color in the patterns below. Don’t they take you back on a trip to the days of Beatles and their paisley attire? Subsequently, paisley became synonymous with the psychedelic styles of clothing, poster art, album covers, and Fender guitars, to mention a few of the iconic memories of the era. In the 80’s, Prince used the icon in his logo and public identity.

Today, designers are incorporating modern design elements and techniques to create a more edgy and graphic display. The patterns are still colorful and lively.

Sometimes it is the graphic example that makes the room. Here’s where an accent wall is just the place for a bold, statement piece.
