Pattern is one of decorating’s greatest magic tricks, able to expand or contract a space, alter a mood, or pull a scheme together with a single element.
In the main bedroom of decorator Cindy Leveson's London flat, Colefax & Fowler's ‘Sudbury Park’ wallpaper in blue serves as a subtle backdrop, demonstrating the impact of pattern scale on a room's atmosphere.
Getting the proportions of the pattern right makes all the difference between harmony and visual chaos.
Choosing the Right Pattern Scale
Interior designer Chloe Willis suggests that the key to using pattern effectively is to decide on the desired feeling and use the pattern with purpose, rather than being constrained by its scale.

- Use large or small patterns to achieve the desired atmosphere.
