10 cool eclectic living rooms

To have eclectic living rooms is not a difficult task. You just have to blend some items and materials and there you’ll reach the final result.

Everything what we do, or what we have, or how we live or how we manage our life should have a reason. However, it is not necessarily that this everything should be appealing, great or liked by everyone around. People have their own tastes in doing or creating things, which may be attracted by one group of people while refused by the other. Style or design is one of those life spheres, where thoughts and tastes of the people may differ.

There is a movement in the field of art called Eclecticism. In spite of the fact that this art movement might not be recognized as a separate style in the world of design, for many people eclecticism is still perceived as a separate and distinct movement. The first person who has brought the term “eclectic” into the world is presumed to be Johan Joachim Winckelmann. This term was used for the work of Carracci, who created his painting combining classical tradition with the elements of Renaissance.

Decorating a room in eclectic style does not mean that the connection, which brings the harmony to the whole design, should make the look of such room boring. The harmony of colors is dissolved by the elements of furniture and vice versa, creating an attractive look to the room. An eclectic style does not harmonize different elements, taken from the variety of other styles, into one boring creation, but it rather brings into life one interesting and appealing piece of art out of that.

The furniture is an important element that gives a frame for the eclectic piece of art if we speak about interior design and then color, fabric and finish fill it up and make it one creative stylish work. The combination of all those different elements carries a piece of knowledge, thought, and creativity; therefore, it brings an amazing look to the designed in this style environment.
