Architectural Digest November 2010Dining Room
What Houzz contributors are saying:
Using a crocodile pattern on this velvety upholstery adds a touch of the wild to this elegant dining room, but with more softness than the average crocodile possesses.
Balance textures and materials. This dining room is certainly fit for a king. The silver-leafed stripe wall treatment, silvery "crocodile" fabric on the chairs, and a soft gray area rug beautifully balance out the expansive dining table and highly textured drapery. It's no wonder this room was featured in Architectural Digest last year.
For a tailored feeling, try creating stripes using the same color paint in two varying sheens such as matte and gloss. The stripes are most noticeable when hit by the light, creating subtle movement and texture.
