What we’re loving this month…
With Spring right around the corner, we are loving everything floral! But not just any floral pattern… we are loving modern floral patterns. Let’s dig in…
Traditional Floral Patterns
Traditionally, floral patterns in fabrics and wallpapers tended to be very realistic, depicting floral bouquets and a loose colour palette. The scale of the pattern usually ranges from small to medium sized prints, emphasizing a more realistic quality.
Modern Floral Patterns
Modern floral patterns are quite different. They are graphic, playful and more focused on specific colour palettes. They tend to have more background or negative space to balance out the more graphic florals and their overall size of pattern tends to be larger in scale for more impact. Let’s take a closer look.
Colour Palette Qualities
Today’s floral patterns are created with specific colour palettes in mind. Colour palettes that can easily integrate into today’s interior design palettes. Floral patterns are designed with distinct colour combinations that can be mixed into other aspects of our home designs.
Scale Qualities
And finally another key aspect of modern floral patterns is the scale of the print or pattern overall. Modern florals tend to be bold in colour but also in size. They are all about making an impact and a statement.
