Geometry Lessons: Trends in Home Decor
Posted by DecoArt on Apr 12th 2016
I feel like I owe my high school geometry teacher an apology. Because as much as a grumbled about proofs and theorems, turns out I LOVE geometry... when it's used in decor. And so do a lot of other people. Geometrics are a hot trend in interior design that shows no sign of cooling off.
Circles, squares, triangles, hexagons, modular patterns and more are popping up on floors, furniture, walls, textiles and accessories. Here are some ways to shape up your decor with geometrics.
Geometric Feature Walls
I love the bright colors and the contrasting raw wood on this honeycomb feature wall from Vintage Revivals.
This jewel-toned geometic feature wall via The Room Edit is wallpapered, but with lots of tape, patience and geometry, you could paint a similar design a wall in your home. (Photo credit Paul Raeside for Livingetc.)
When decorating with geometrics, you don't have to follow any set pattern. Random geometric patterns, like this one from The Interiors Addict, can be really interesting and pretty.
Geometric Artwork and Wall Decor
Hey Let's Make Stuff painted MDF triangles, then arranged them on the wall to make geometric mountains for her twins' nursery.
Gwen from The Bold Abode painted lots and lots of triangles to create this amazing DIY pixel wall art.
Honeycomb shelves from A Beautiful Mess provide decoration and function.
Ditto for this wire photo display from The Caldwell Project.
Lemon Thistle got the kids involved to create this toddler fingerpaint artwork she shared on the Land of Nod blog.
Geometric Patterns on Furniture
The colors in this geometric painted sideboard, as featured on Poppytalk via Inside Out Magazine, are just the pop this midcentury modern piece needs.
My Sister's Suitcase used Americana Decor Chalky Finish paint for this geometric midcentury modern desk makeover.
Brittany Makes used copper pipe from the hardware to store make this shapely copper Himmeli side table.
This graphic wall-mounted nightstand from Paris La Reunion is a great space saver.
Geometric Accessories
Corey from Hey There, Home has a great tip for creating an affordable large geometric area rug from smaller ones.
These faceted succulent vases from The Scrap Shoppe Blog are an easy way to accessorize with geometrics.
Geometry chalkboard paint = a fabulously easy DIY chalk vase from Natalme.
