Design Tips for Mixing and Matching Furniture

Are you facing a mix-and-match predicament in your living room, bedroom, or dining room? This is a common conundrum we’re well equipped to tackle.

Buying matching furniture sets or modular pieces is like hitting a few proverbial birds with one stone. You can purchase several furniture pieces at once (check, check, check!), and you’ve saved yourself the effort required to coordinate. All these pieces of furniture will be attractive and designed to match each other. At the same time, you may want to add a touch of personality, create a more individualized room, or own and love a mismatched array of furniture. 

For example, you may have inherited a beloved couch from your grandmother or held on to a cherished side coffee table all these years from your first apartment — you get the gist. This diverse collection is desirable, with decor trends increasingly leaning toward a unique, eclectic look. 

However, your mixed furniture combination will appear sloppy without thoughtful selection and arrangement. Instead, a mix-and-match home decor style should convey a decorator’s sense of creativity and personal style while maintaining cohesion.

Whether your goal is to bring personality to your matching sets or to harmonize a smattering of mismatched furniture, try these simple tips for designing a unified and aesthetically pleasing living space.
