The dizzying array of decisions that go into a home design project is enough to make anyone throw up their arms. But, maddeningly, it's often those small details that can truly make a space spectacular. Something as subtle as the pattern in your hardwood floor can take a plain Jane room to the next level. If you're dithering about adding interest in a home project, may I suggest a hint of herringbone? The pattern infuses a classy note in any setting.
Subway tiles are everywhere these days—not that I'm complaining. The simple white style is helpful in myriad applications. But why not mix it up in an unexpected pattern?
Classic touches like herringbone, marble, and slipper chairs plus eclectic finds (convex mirror and leopard-print pillows, anyone?) equals one swanky room.
