One of the main design traits you must consider when making changes to your home decor is vibrancy. Vibrancy covers both colour and pattern. When a room is considered vibrant, this usually means that it is rich and textured; it will stimulate an individual’s senses. If you consider yourself someone who is vibrant, then it would be worth considering a more vibrant decor for your home.
Some of the most pivotal points of a vibrant room are the windows. This is because they are the focal points for most of the light that enters a room. This means they are probably the best place to start when considering vibrancy.
Roman Blinds are a great choice for any window, as well as Venetian Blinds which are also becoming quite popular lately. Roman Blinds have a nice earthy and artsy feel to them. Their name actually comes from the fact they date back to the Roman Times, when designs were simple and effective. Roman Blinds are fabric based blinds that draw up into a series of folds, and then unfold when let down. Because of their fabric nature, Roman Blinds become hugely customisable, and are available in all sorts of colours and patterns. The next few things are a few pointers on how you can implement these blinds and their colourful patterns.
Colour
Warm colours tend to be considered more vibrant. Warm colours are colours like reds, oranges, and yellows. If you have a variety of colour in your room it will look alive and active. This is good, but it is possible to take it too far. It’s probably best to stick with around 3 colours.
Patterned Roman Blinds will probably include one or two colours themselves, so it’s advised that you use the colours featured so that everything in your room matches. You could even be edgy and use different patterns if the colours are exactly the same.
Pattern
The next major design element to consider is the actual pattern. Patterned Roman Blinds come in all sorts of varieties including classic patterns such as: plaid, paisley, geometrical designs, stripes, polka, and even artistic design such as famous paintings. Although I said earlier that you can be edgy and pick different designs if the colours are the same, I wouldn’t really recommend it unless you know the different patterns will work with each other, such as dots and stripes. If you don’t do this properly then you will ruin the whole look of your room.
Balance and Symmetry
The patterns you choose might not be symmetrical, but it’s a factor to be aware of none the less. There is a balance that is needed in a room, which is greatly influenced by symmetry. It doesn’t need to be a literal symmetry, but more an overall symmetrical feel. A very asymmetrical room will feel odd. This one is difficult to describe, it’s one of those things that you have to “feel”. Don’t be afraid to experiment and move things around.
Why don’t you experiment with patterned Roman Blinds and see what result you can come up with. They may be the perfect thing to give your room the vibrancy it needs. These are classic window coverings that have as much charm and artistic appeal as they did to the ancients.
