How do you feel about the patterns and textures in this room?

don't really mind the look of this room at all, but the curtains would have to be changed.

I don't decorate with blue, but if I did I would be okay with that room if they lost just that jarring big fireplace picture. Way too busy for me in any room in my home.

@lolakimono I love the brick, like the couch, love seat and I love that chair which surprises me! Don't like anything else in this room.

I love the fireplace and the solid blues. Don't care for all those patterns together or the art over the fireplace.

Too much blue for me.

I don't care for the busy fireplace wall with the painting but find the rest visually stimulating.

I do not care for the artwork, the blue and white chair, the coffee table or the other tables in the room. With some changes, it could be appealing for me.

I could do without the curtains, but otherwise it's very nice!

A very good space but I'd like to start over with the decor and I'd retain very little of what's there now.

Kind of a hot mess. It looks like it was decorated by someone that really wishes they were an interior decorator, but they're just not.

For some reason, it all seems to work. The only thing I don't like is the butterfly painting.

Nope .... it looks to messy 👎

@lolakimono I think the room needs some changes, too.

That overhead light fixture has to go! Ditto the darker ivory shaded floor lamp in the far corner, which distracts my eye as it is not pure white like the other lampshade. The butterfly painting over the fireplace is a bit too intense for my taste, and that coffee table reminds me of a trampoline for some reason, and I do not like it, as a result.

Other than those objections, I really do like the room. LOL.

ETA: I just realized I didn't answer your question about the patterns and textures. I kind of like them, except for the pattern of the painting over the fireplace, which is a bit too jarring with its much brighter blue background.

Blue is my favorite color. However, I find this room dizzying.

The painting is too much. Also too many stools around. How many people you have over! 🤣 I agree with posters who said the one chair is a no. Otherwise a great room.

The stone fireplace, mantle and rug can stay..........everything else can go and start over. Too busy for me. Can't figure out what that lone table is doing by the fireplace?

I like the blue and can see that the use of metal, stone , leather and the print of butterflies working together . If I was on vacation in the mountains with my family the room would be perfect.
