Stunning Geometrics in Design - Inspiration for your Home

I've spotted some really unique rooms featuring geometrics that I thought you'd enjoy too. These rooms are just so special that nearly all of them have given me new ideas of additions I'd like to add to my own home. For starters, how fabulous are these chairs!? (see below) After seeing these two beauties, I have a few furniture design ideas that I'm eager to get down on paper. Time to start sketching!

So, these geometric iron doors are swoon worthy too! (see below) Yet again, these are just the kind of doors I can see myself adding to my home. The door's bold shapes stand out in this neutral entryway. Certainly the type of statement I can see myself making in my home. How about you?

Geometric patterns in design can often give a space a mod feel, like in this bold blue room. However, the possibilities are infinite. While this room features a variety of shapes, it avoids looking busy by keeping the room in a blue palette.

And the Pietro Russo Romboidale Shelves are just stunning! I had to literally walk around my house to try to think up a place to put such a bookcase, because it's just that great. I can see myself using this as a room divider, although I must admit, I have no idea where this would go currently. My eye just dances across the geometric, triangle pattern featured on this sturdy iron, shelving unit. Love it!

For my last geometric design, I'll leave you with this impactful staircase showcasing a rectangular pattern. It's simple, yet bold and goes well with the natural decor around it. This was another inspirational photo for me. Certainly a design element I'd welcome at my home.  I hope you've gotten a few ideas too!

It's all about paint splatter in design on the blog today!  The paint splatter motif's abstract nature makes it a great way to bring an artful touch to your home, which I love of course! When looking to make a bold statement in design, paint splatter home accents really achieve just this.  It's bold, artistic, unexpected and fresh.  A perfect combination!  I've rounded up my favorite paint splatter designs that are executed with style.  Here's some chic inspiration for your Monday!

I love how much drama paint splatter can add to a space. The hallway in Kelly Wearstler's design above is a great example.  The small powder room below makes a huge statement as well with paint spatter-style wallpaper.

If you don't want to take the plunge of paint splatter wallpaper, you can try selecting your favorite fine art painting that evokes a paint splatter feel.  Australia-based artist Rowena Martinich painted the colorful artwork (above) and has many other fine art creations for sale on her website here.
