In this home’s transitional space between the living room and formal dining room, featured in OnStyle by Carl Dellatore (Rizzoli, 2019), bold colors and bright patterns mix with earthy textures and tones. Transitional rooms can be hard to style, especially when they abut spaces that have vastly different uses. With a mix of patterns and textures at play, the transitional space becomes welcoming—a spot that can be not only warm and cozy but also elegant and refined. Metallic accents elevate the room’s design, and softer textures lend an approachable feel. Embrace maximalism and add even more color through glassware, flowers, and artwork.
