Use the Power of Geometrics
Ramp Up Atmosphere with Amazing Shapes and Texture
If you, like me, are less intrigued by color as you are shape and texture, this ideabook is for you. Without downplaying the power of color choice, a space's shape and dimension also help create a mood and flow.
Some geometric components can create an overall structure of a space. Other shapes and lines can enter at more discrete levels, such as your choice in wallpaper or a reading chair. Which means that you can achieve better design through geometrics on all levels, from a renovation to a weekend DIY living room overhaul.
From tall halls to wow-ing wallpapers, take a look at how the geometrics in these photos help a space take shape.

In this sleek and modern dwelling, the open space showcases the lines, adding rhythm to the expanse. From the tract lighting to the slim beams to the open shelving, this room is as light as it is intricate.
A high tray ceiling adds drama to this room. The colors are kept to a narrow palette to allow for the many details here, without overpowering. From the silver ceiling and piano, to the rough wall and patterned rug, this is a beautiful and elegant example of texture and shape coming into one great whole.
Dark beams accentuate a beautiful raised ceiling. And the window at the end of this lofty room adds smoother geometric detail while letting in light.
This kitchen (which is already smooth and modern and interesting) gets a visual one-up with a pattern beneath the feet.
While this bathroom is already sleek and beautiful, the vanity wall texture adds the uniqueness that will set this apart from any other bathroom you've seen.
A similarly textured wall adds a balance to the light furniture. Small details (such as the yellow on the upholstery, the table materials, and the decorative pieces on it) work together to create texture and shape.
The simple color choice here accentuates the layers of wall behind this TV area, and draws attention to the color and shape throughout, rather than the media placed before it.
Aquamar White Serie
This red provides a stark and warm backdrop to this overall cool bathroom and allows the silhouette of this smooth modern tub to stand out as a central piece of art.
This is so super cool. The textured ceiling and the vertical lines on the walls make this room look like the interior of an extended accordion. This slenderizing is balanced brilliantly by floor planks placed perpendicular to the beams.
Lovely floor design. This geometric choice provides a balance to the understated chic throughout.
And this ideabook doesn't even approach the revolution a room can go through due to the simple addition of amazing wallpaper. This is by far my favorite print at the moment.
