| A tall vase against a small wall becomes a focal point. Add a mirror above it to complete the look. |
| Add a cluster of medium-height vases in varying body types. This group under a tall console table adds an interesting touch. |
Fill a lonely corner with two coordinating vases of different heights. It will instantly give life and add color to an area that's often overlooked.
Use a tall floor vase as a separator between open rooms. It tells the eye where one space stops, and another begins.

| Use multiple vases in a narrow space for a punch of boldness. |

Soften a sharp edge of a piece of furniture with a floor vase. Work with the style of the room when choosing the right vase. If the piece of furniture has a natural look, go for a more natural-feeling vase.

PamDesigns 3D These are great! The most successful (to me) were those to proper scale in context of the space and other items in the views. But then, we only get to see what's cropped within the photos. Nice way to create balance when you have a lot of space to fill.
