Those looking to mix up the furniture in their home know that one of the hardest things to do is to coordinate patterns, textures, and styles. This is especially true for people who are looking to add new items with their older furniture items.
In this article, we’ll give you the tips and tricks you need to expertly coordinate custom furniture and fabrics throughout your home.
Furniture Design Style
You may be wondering how to best incorporate modern, contemporary furniture with antique pieces. Or maybe you’re considering adding custom Fouka sofa sets with your existing entertainment unit and coffee table.
At Fouka Furniture, our team is available to help guide you through the entire process. We’ll work with you to better understand the pieces you currently have and help to suggest either classic or modern options.
Furniture Fabric Colour
Colour can have an effect on moods, feelings, and behaviours. For example, grey is seen as stable, soothing, reliable, and neutral – which is why it’s a popular couch or sofa colour choice.
However, with so many shades of grey to choose from, it can be difficult to try and find a perfect match between pieces. One grey may be bluer, another greener.
“The easiest way to ensure that your room will look coherent, even if it features a variety of styles, is to limit the colour palette.” – Gabrielle Savoie, mydomaine
At Fouka, we offer clients swatches to bring home to ensure there is no clashing with wall colours or other furniture. We also offer furniture in customizable colours and fabrics, so you can exactly match your sofa set to your recliner!
By being strategic about colour, your pieces will coordinate beautifully.
Furniture Fabric Pattern
The addition of a patterned fabric can create great interest. However, while maximalism certainly has a space in the interior design world, most homeowners benefit from limited patterns in their homes.
When too many patterns are visible in one room, your eye doesn’t know where to look or focus. This can be distracting and even overwhelming to guests.
As a compromise for those who love patterns, we suggest being very mindful of how designs might clash.
“For unity, be sure the patterns are spread throughout the room, rather than concentrated in one area.” – Furniture First
A good rule of thumb to follow is one bold pattern type per room.
If the patterns are more subtle, you may get away with up to three patterns per room.
“Two large patterns together will fight and compete with each other. You want to pick a small-scale pattern to go with the large one.” – Zeina Badawi, Style Meets Comfort
Furniture Fabric Texture
Fabric and leather colours can both be hard to match in your home – especially to your floor and walls.
“Choose two or three colours, finishes, stains or types of wood. This is your base to build from as you design the rest of your space.” – Snazzy Little Things
