If you’re looking to spruce up your apartment style by decorating for spring, the best way to do this is with some trending colors and patterns. You can start saying goodbye to animal prints, damask patterns, and chevron. Although they can still be used in moderate amounts, they shouldn’t be focal pieces of your space. Here are some pattern trends to get you started on decorating your space for spring:
Black stripes have become a hot decor trend, especially when paired with gold or floral patterns. Both gold and floral patterns balance the boldness of the black and white stripes, making the entire look come together. Whether it’s something permanent like a sofa or ottoman, or something less permanent, such as pillows and wall art pieces, stripes can easily be balanced while still creating a glamorous appeal.
If you love stripes but want something a bit more subtle, light gray is a great way to add a little glam to your space without making too bold of a move. Below is a great upcycled dresser example of gray and white stripes, which are also accompanied by gold accent pieces and florals.
Gold polka dot walls are a great way to spruce up your space without it being a permanent decor piece. Vinyl or stickers are a great way to create the polka dot look and they appear even more chic when bunched in a group, like the layout in the room below.
Gold has become a neutral color, making it easy to add to any room when decorating for spring. Whether you have a coral room, blue room, or even darker colors, gold makes a great accent color.
