This examination along with my other articles, will give you another way of feeling the connection or disconnection to a room by recognizing the different patterns and textures in it.

• Pattern is a repeating or an organized design and can be found not only in textiles and the surfaces of objects, but also in the arrangement of furniture, artwork groupings, accessories, and even in repeated architectural elements of the room itself. Too much pattern can be overwhelming, but in the right measures, locations and scale, pattern can add a much-needed interest to a room.
• Texture is what we perceive a surface to be, either by its touch or its appearance. The style and mood of an area can easily be impressed by texture. It has deep emotional links, similar to color. It significantly affects the way we perceive the comfort and warmth of a room and how we imagine the temperature of a surface to be. When you choose textures for decorating, there's more to consider than just how it looks or feels. It should be easy to clean and maintain and be durable enough to withstand the use it might receive.
