Since 2023, ‘color drenching’ has been one of the most discussed interior design trends. Though initially considered bold, a lack of imagination in installation and overexposure on social media have led to the trend feeling sleepier than quiet luxury.<\/p>\n

As we search for what’s next, Candice Bergen’s living room provides a stunning example of how the ‘drenching’ trend is evolving. Rather than covering the entire room in one color, she has opted for the more maximalist version: pattern drenching.<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

From her brown flower-covered armchairs to her nature-inspired carpet to her geometric fringe cushions, every surface of Candice’s maximalist living room<\/a> offers a new bold pattern. Her choice of mostly florals lends the style a cohesive, organic feel.<\/p>\n

Depending on your personal style<\/a>, there are dozens of ways to tap into the pattern-drenching trend that feel like a good fit for any home. Shelley advises: ‘Clashing patterns don\u2019t have to be traditional or chintzy – take a contemporary approach to pattern drenching with abstract shapes and hand-drawn stripes.’<\/p>\n

As seen in Candice Bergen’s home, the trend is ideal for cozy enveloping spaces like the living room<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Helen Ashmore, Head of Design for Laura Ashley<\/a>, recommends: ‘For living and dining spaces, there are endless options to weave in a variety of patterns, textures, and colors that work in harmony for a rich and layered look. Window treatments, soft furnishings, and upholstery can all work together to create a cohesive and inviting feel.’<\/p>\n

She continues: ‘In the living room, consider incorporating throws, cushions, and rugs that echo your chosen palette, helping to build layers of warmth and depth. In the dining room<\/a>, don\u2019t forget the table linen, chair covers, and even statement lighting to help elevate the space and complete your pattern-rich design scheme.’<\/p>\n

Though pattern drenching sounds intimidating, this style can be emulated by anyone. Whether you are a minimalist or maximalist, modern or traditional, there is a stunning way to replicate Candice Bergen’s look.<\/p>\n
