                            • What is eclectic style? Let me introduction to you what eclectic looks like in the interiors. •

Eclectic: deriving ideas and style from a broad and diverse range of sources 




Eclectic style is brought together by color, furniture, fabric and finishes. The trick to pull off the style is to find common ground in each individual aspect and have confidence with your design choices. You can find common ground with scale, composition, proportion, texture and color. 

Characteristics of Eclectic Style can include: 
  1. unique art and furnishings 
  2. historical contrast 
  3. cohesiveness through pattern,shape,texture, furnishings and color 
  4. old with the new

The tips and tricks to create a stunning eclectic space:

Color: The trick is to keep the palette neutral. It creates a blank canvas to further complement the furnishings.

Fabrics:  Choose fabrics with neutral backgrounds to be cohesive with the color palette. The foreground is where you can add color,texture and pattern.

Furniture: The details of the furniture should tie in with the rest of the room, background palette, details and texture. 

Finishes (Decor): The ideal time to add unique art and contrasting historical pieces. Decor is your opportunity not to follow rules, but to add pieces that create a unique "eclectic'" space. 


 * Remember that eclectic style does not have "rules". Create a space that complements your eye of design. * 


That's it for now! Until next time...
