Flickr Find: Graham's Inspiring Stripes

What's more striking than a fresh coat of bold paint? Stripes--and lots of them. We love how Graham has taken the traditional striped wall and made it his own. All of his inspiring spaces after the jump.

Take a closer look at this trio of stripes that anchor Graham's flat screen t.v. He's taken a black IKEA LACK shelf and blended it in seamlessly with the wall. The objects appear to be floating in the space and his extra storage shelf isn't jarring because it blends right in.

We love this classic wall of stripes with alternating hues of similar orange paint. Because it's a painted accent wall, the space now has depth and makes the room seem bigger.

While these aren't stripes, we do love the puzzle-like quality of this canvas series. We might try a similar version of our own at home (but probably on a much smaller scale).

Graham has many more inspirational photos plus a DIY desk that he made from a Lowe's Hardware door, here.
