Juxtaposition: adding the element of surprise to decor

The EyeDance Nantucket Palette evokes weather-beaten wharfs, wind swept beaches, water, sand and sky. The swatches pull in deep earth tones, pale background washes with peppy blues for contrast and accent.

Aquatica the coordinating art piece from EyeDance Gallery is designed for the Nantucket Palette. Set against walls of distressed concrete, contrasted by spartan wooden floors and clean lines of contemporary furniture, it makes a bold statement by bringing organic motion and textural layering to this loft-style urban interior.

Professional Tip : add drama to interiors by juxtaposition

  • Rough textures against smooth
  • Mottled backgrounds against plain
  • Organic forms against clean lines
