How to Use Eclectic Interior Design Style in Your Salon

Eclectic is a mix and match combination of several design styles unified through color, pattern, texture, and shape. While the elements used may not necessarily go together—a cohesive whole is achieved with the deliberate use of materials and items. The sky is the limit, but eclectic is not a ruleless, anything-can-go kind of style. Every eclectically styled space should be a carefully thought-out celebration of contrasts that merges several decor styles into one seamless design. Mix old and new, serious and whimsical, antique and contemporary to create interest. Mixing unique styles into one cohesive look is what eclectic is all about.

There are countless material and finish options within an eclectic design, so try mixing textures and patterns to create the perfect celebration of contrast. Place smooth alongside rough, polished with matte, and nubbly with soft for a perfectly layered interior. Like materials and finishes, anything goes in an eclectic color palette, but it is best to limit yourself to 3-4 colors to create cohesion. Again, we want the design to be a pleasing mix—not a mismatch of eyesores. A calming neutral hue paired with one accent color is the typical base that will prevent the room from becoming too chaotic.
