Pattern Overload!!

stevieb — Tue, 12 Jan 2021 16:57:42 GMT

So, I like a colonial look, well, most of the time anyway... And I like some of the furniture here... The patterns themselves could even be sort of attractive, but there's just so much of them... The bones of this room are appealing, and it's a very nice fireplace, but it needs some serious visual streamlining...

Much to busy. Could be a beautiful room, paint in a Williamsburg color to start and simplifly the accessories.

That wallpaper is way too much. I prefer painted walls.

I do like the colors and some of the decor, but first thing I would do is remove the valances to start to see why I feel so closed in even though that room is large.

Gosh, this was an attractive room, until someonen overdosed on patterns.

Everything just blends in so you really don't see anything. I think if the walls were painted a solid color and just the drapes had the print it would be much more soothing and inviting.

Could have gone full blast and switched the two white accents 😃

It doesn't clash, but there is way too much of the pattern of the drapes, bed skirt and wallpaper.

Either get rid of the drapes or the wallpaper and replace with a solid,color. That room must have cost a fortune to decorate that way. It had to be custom.

Why does the bed have the same pattern as the walls? You get lost in the pattern and miss the appealing aspects of the room. You're right the fireplace is nice. It took a moment for me to notice the ceiling. Is that a window treatment behind the bed? It's all just a big NO from me.

That room is just silly. And what's with that portrait hanging on the fabric? It's so overdone that a British word comes to mind...TWEE.

The 1 and only thing I like in this room is the fireplace.

@stevieb. Sensory overload. Those patterns are way too busy.

I like the Colonial style too.... but this is overwhelming.... too many patterns just way too much

When I put myself into this rm, I feel as if I were sitting on an anthill, all that pattern kind of crawling all over me. It manages to be both overly busy and dully monochromatic at the same time. What an accomplishment. I need to see some solid colors on the walls, or fabrics, or both. Please! Right away!
