You Asked, We Answered

This wallpaper is hands-down the most asked about item on our website and blog.  Here's the scoop.  What's difficult to see from the images is that around the pattern are tiny glass beads, giving off a beautiful sheen.  The wallpaper can be purchased from the Thomas Lavin showroom here in Los Angeles.  However, sorry everyone... this one is only available to the trade.  If you have additional questions about pricing or how to purchase, you can contact us at [email protected]. 

Incorporating Pattern

Due to the large number of inquiries we receive, we are going to start posting some of the most commonly received questions on our blog. 

Reader Question: "My room has no pattern and I'm afraid that if I add patterns, I'll get tired of them too quickly."

Brown Design Solution: A great way to add pattern to a room is to find fabrics that have a similar tones of color in the pattern.  This adds subtle pattern without being overwhelming.  Sticking with neutrals is great when you don't want to commit to a certain color scheme.  You can always add to a neutral base with accent items that bring your color in without the commitment.  And the best part is that your room becomes interchangeable without having to redesign every time--accents can go a long way in changing the mood of your room.

Here is a great rug with a beautiful subtle pattern which really grounds the space.  You can pick up these same colors with an accent pattern in your throw pillows as well. 

 

Here is another example of how we picked up the same tones found in the chair to select fabric for the accent pillow and throw.
