Principle of Design: Harmony

Unity and variety are very much related to one another. Unity occurs when the parts of a room or home is related by one topic. Variety is when two or more elements of design are used. In this room, variety is shown by using texture. There are many different textures in this room including; the wall, the frames, the couch, the pillows and much more. Line is another element that plays a role in the variety of this room. In the midsection of the room I used a short, long couch. This elongates the room. At the same time, I gave the room height by adding the vertical room dividers. Color is yet another element used in this room. The blues and oranges are complementary colors. I also used some greens to give more color. The bright colors against the neutral background makes everything pop.
