JUST as clothes make a person, it is the same way fabric makes the furniture. Stripes are decorating designs that can be used for settees, sofas, chairs and ottomans. They can come in subtle or bold stripes, which can set the tone for the rest of a room. 

  Using stripes is one way to add a playful edge to home decoration. They are versatile and mix well with every colour and style, and can complement other beautiful patterns. They can also be used in any and section of the home.

  However, it is worthy of note that stripes can be daring design elements that can overwhelm an entire room. This makes it important to apply some tips when using striped furniture.

  With stripes, there are endless possibilities with colour that you can use. Wide stripes, especially when they come in bold contrasting colours, form an impressive backdrop. The multicolored thin stripes can add excitement and fun. For soothing and subtle colours, monochromatic stripes are perfect for achieving such look.

  Striped furniture need not match everything or any other thing in the room; it can simply stand out on its own as a statement piece without overpowering the rest of other things in the space. 

  Something in bold and vivacious colours could be suitable for sprucing a space like the foyer or master bedroom.

  Using lighter, flirtier colours of striped furniture will add some girlish charm and infuse warmth and welcoming feel to a place like the living room.
