ColorTherapy: Color Combos For Chairs And Rugs

090908_stark01.jpgAs we have mentioned many times on Apartment Therapy, choosing a color scheme and creating a cohesive color look can be challenging. Any extra help can be helpful so we wanted to share this website with you if you are looking for color inspiration on mixing patterns and colors.

 
 

090908_stark02.jpgWe recently came across Stark Fabrics and really enjoy their collections of chair fabrics with matching carpets. This site does a wonderful job at showcasing color options that you may not have thought would or could work. While color and patterns can seem tough to match, if it works for you in your space, that is most important. And since Stark specializes in custom-designed carpets, it may be even easier to get the color look you like.

Most of those pairings are awfully trendy. The current vogue for things that "clash" is fresh and fun now but I don't think it will be long-lived. In about five years these combos will probably evoke a "what were they thinking???" reaction.

Gah... most of the combinations shown here are awful. Too busy, too cluttered, too eye-soringly bright

Caveat: If the rugs are small and not used directly under the chairs it might work but it's not my thing
