Design Rules That Need Change
We all have been prone to watching Pinterest boards, magazines, and design experts that have shaped our ideal understanding of design in a living space. Small spaces require smaller space arrangements whereas bigger spaces require big space based arrangements. However, old design rules cannot cease to exist if we do not change the rules according to our own taste, style, and understanding of space. Therefore, it is advisable to change the rules according to our own ideas and move on with it.
Here are some of the design rules that need change:
Mix Matching Your Patterns
While most of us believe that patterns should always be matched, it is an interesting approach to mix and match your furniture or patterns. With vibrant colors, you can try to mix bigger patterns with smaller ones to bring out a wonderful colorful contrast between various furniture. Pair you mix matched pillow cushions with a solid–colored sofa set, and you are done!

Small Spaces with Dark Colors
It is always advised to use bright colors in cramped or narrow spaces, because it makes the room look bigger. We say no! You can also make your room look bright and full of space if you pair your furniture sets well around the space. It can also be paired with light colored accessories around the dark colored wall that can balance the contrast well.

Sofas Do Not Always Have to Be Neutral
Sofas as a neutral-colored furniture can have more room for patterned pillow cushion and blanket throws. Although it is true, it can also be experimented with the sofa as a furniture with mix patterns, but also solid colored pillow covers and blanket throws. It can provide a bold look to your living space.

Mix Different Types of Furniture
It has been said and done to not mix metals. We have always tended to match the iron metal light with metal framed dressers. But it is time to change those rules. Metal, brass, and even chrome can work together if they are matched well with other furniture accessories.
Go Solo: No More Sets
Having statement furniture does not require you to buy furniture in sets. You can also buy a single dresser and a dozen light fixtures that suits the room’s ambience. You can also pair a large area rug with your white patio set that can work well together.
