1. Rule of 3’s: Select a minimum of three patterns, making sure that at least one pattern is half the size of the
remaining two.
2. Watch your tones: Mixing in pieces that share similar wood tones brings balance to patterns, while
adding a modern sophistication to a sparwling space. This is especially true when the finishes are on the
darker side.
3. Room to Rest: When you use multiple patterns, its best to find a place for the eye to rest. It could be as
simple as a muted floral on the coffee table or simple rug.
