Opposites attract: Add drama to your room without cluttering the stage

Add excitement to your room without creating visual clutter with this simple trick. Choose two fabrics that oppose each other and let them wake each other up. The opposing fabrics might be materials that contrast with each other’s texture or finish, such as silk and sisal. If you go that route, you might pair silk curtains with a sisal rug. Or take a different route and choose fabrics with patterns that mimic each other’s design, but in reverse.
