DESIGNERS TALK TRELLIS
Contrast:
"If the pattern has a low contrast, it makes a wonderful backdrop for other patterns." -- Cathy Kincaid
"I love muted patterns -- tone on tone for a more sophisticated and elegant look -- but contrast trellis is both fun and stimulating." -- Carolyn Malone
Scale:
"I like smaller patterns on upholstered furniture." -- Cathy Kincaid
"Currently, I prefer to use smaller patterns for texture." -- Kelly Wearstler
Where To Use It:
"Anywhere -- don't be afraid to break the rules." -- Kelly Wearstler
"Treillage is especially effective in a square or symmetrical room. Also, in a long hall, it adds interest. It's fabulous as a wallpaper or as a fabric in a bedroom or dining room." -- Carolyn Malone
