CURVES GALORE

Round shapes are hot right now, and I expect that to last for the next several years and into the future. Curvy tiles, curved velvet sofas, round dining tables – the circular shape will soften all the straight edges of a room and give it a bit of a feminine vibe. It’s a bit of Art Deco influence coming into play and probably a reaction to all the straight, hard lines of mid-century modern. I think people are looking for soothing organic shapes, and having curves in a room gives an inviting and relaxing feeling. I also love mixing the straight lines – think crown moulding and wood wall millwork with the soft curves of a sofa. They are a great complement to one another.
