2019 seems to be no different than the previous couple of years as far as the trend in geometric design.

Big and bold motifs are emblazoned across quilt covers, curtains, cushions and wallpapers.

Here are just a few of our favourites for the new year:

Habitat has created a real buzz with the above style statement. On-trend colour melds with super cool tones and shapes.
The overall feel of the room with the panelling in the background looks uber sophisticated and so fresh.

Again, sumptuous and sophisticated colour hues matched with paler wood tones.
This time French Connection has added the copper look light fitting to pull the two contrasting shades together. It’s a look that’s got 2019 written in large letters right across it.

Both the chair and the deep colour paint behind it are from Rockett St George. 
How fantastic does this look?
You don’t even have to see the rest of the room to know the sense of home decor drama that unfolds at either side of the camera lens.

The shape of the chair (although probably not the comfiest) looks like it was forged in some Mediterranean island (or GoTs Iron Island).
An absolutely perfect feature for any on-trend home in 2019!

Colours for splashbacks, floors & more….

We love to see our designs printed on glass. The colour definition and quality of print just seem to completely match with the geometric style we strive for. Glass and square-y just seem to gel so well. The growing range of coloured glass splashback designs for kitchens we add our designs to always gives us goosebumps when we see the finished articles!

Looking for a little inspiration in using colour in your home decor, read on for a brief guide on the hows and whys.

The creative aspect involved in planning your own personal interior decorating of your home decor can be a personal and exciting adventure. There are many ideas content you can pick up all over the place, simply by reading magazines and books or culling Internet sites for ideas. Some of the ones we found were simple, such as buying 50-metre rolls of artist canvas and having your children use finger paint to paint their own rooms on large swathes of the canvas.

There are so many ideas and possibilities to render your home decor to be exactly what you want to be, all it takes is a little research and creativity, and an eye on your budget.

Some of the best ideas cost little to do and are very classy or esoteric.

One of the things you might want to do to make the most of your interior space while buying furniture for your new home decor is to measure the rooms involved. Draw to a scale on graph paper; used 1/4″ to 1-foot scale to represent the demarcations involved in this approach to fitting furniture into your remodeled spaces.

You can turn many pieces of furniture into new creations with such things as slipcovers for your headboard and foot or on your bed. Giving your home decor its own personality that goes with yours is the ultimate goal.

Are you one of the rustic or modern, classic or bohemian? The endless choices present themselves in many different ways, but you have to find and look in order to get what you want, and the whole thing is a process of discovery. It goes without saying that you want your home to reflect how you feel and your lifestyle, and be livable for you on an everyday basis, with an emphasis on comfort and beauty.

It goes without saying that you want your home to reflect how you feel and your lifestyle. It also needs to be habitable and match your life on an everyday basis, with an emphasis on comfort and beauty.

The best things you can do for yourself is to educate yourself in interior design basics. Get a few books out of the library on the subject, hunt down information and articles and websites online. This will allow you to be the consumer that you need to be and help answer why you went down the routes of your desire for your home decor.

An educated consumer will always get the best results. Unless you want to hire someone to do so for you, finding out all about the subject and educating yourself somewhat is indispensable.

Anyway, back to the shiny coloured splashbacks and modern fresh geometric patterned floor ideas!

Home Decor Patterns That Spell Drama.

Asked to interject on patterns for home decor. Something about the impact they create and the feel they can inspire.

Surprised myself with some knowledge on florals, ombré – I even dropped in Chinoiserie and Japonisme. Please allow me this moment and do not judge.

The world here at Mort & Hex may revolve about geometrics but I’d be naive to think that’s all there is and all you want.

We can concentrate on what we do – more designs incoming – and give ideas to add drama to your home.

As they say at For the Floor: Have the home everyone talks about.

Geometry In 3D For Floors & More

We recently curated and collected a number of new geometric designs primarily for the floor. They are all in this post on ideas for 3D Vinyl Flooring.

We love the way they play with depth and from floor level they appear abstract – a distinctive illusion toying with form and style.
From eye level and above they become much more. Interweaving and interlocking links and shapes. Tetris type bricks cascading across the ground adding drama to the room.

Designs created to force attention and conversation. For too long the floor has been the domain of plain. No longer is this viable.

We create geometric patterns for wallpapers and glassware. Hung high and wide, they fulfil their desires with ease whilst splayed across the vertical surface.

Floors have been left out of the sunlight and the spotlight. Pastel hues and minor pattern the most they have been afforded.
A decorated rug tossed down as a final apology for dourness. We always wanted more but more was unavailable or at least not yet readily accessible.
The internet created a possible solution but possibilities aren’t always clearly signposted. The flooring revolution had not yet begun.

With the advent of digital print technology coupled with the new media advances bring, the snowball started rolling.
Ideas for bold geometrics, colour potential unlimited, the designer’s brain ticking like a mind-bomb.

Pantone tones like a new paintbrush – the paint pot split open and hi-def hues escape across illustrator and beyond. Motifs never before witnessed cause havoc with traditional design. If your room doesn’t host then behind you have been quickly left.

NuViFloor Vinyl Flooring

NuViFloor vinyl floor covering created for impact – both visual and what daily life drops onto it. A textured top layer guarantees hard-wearing, durable performance. The print layer is protected beneath the face – nothing spoils its attractive unique look and it’s built to look good for longer.

Comfort yourself with the knowledge your home is leading with on-trend geometric design and that you chose the most innovative flooring product available.

The modern geometric style looks utterly mesmerising when it’s printed behind glass as a stunning Feature Tile or splashback.

There’s such a crisp definition of print – crystal clear with a clarity that seems to bite through with direct precision.

The angular lines and criss-cross details retain such sharpness. The depth is something one could almost fall into…

Like Narcissus, we may be too biased with their good looks but surely when home decor can look this unique, are we that wrong?

The lines of Alata seem almost unearthly behind the pane.

While Cibic as a glass splashback could gaze back from the wall of a modernist museum.
Glass printed as standalone artwork.

splashbacks that shout back

Aldo design sets the tone. In a bathroom, its American Gigolo – the style of the classics setting the pace in modern life.
A Feature Tile pattern designed to be the feature.

All 3 above use their ’17 shades to quietly pop and bristle under the radar. Their geometric pulse creating the tension the room’s restful neutrality deserves.

The remainder of the space has the flow, Mort & Hex define the accent and outline.

Iceberg cuts through the glass with precise definition. Put it behind the taps in the bathroom and expect it to shave you.

The cool blues and subtle greys combine across the pattern like a kaleidoscopic ritual of the god Triangulus.

Grafyx Pink or Green horizontally slide their arch-like barricades dissecting the view and bringing forth its third dimension.

Follow the rabbit as it slips down the rabbit hole – do you take the pink pill or the green?
