8. The Maximalist “Art-House”
Use the guest room as your design playground. If you are afraid to use a bold wallpaper in your living room, use it here!
- The Design: Mix patterns—such as a bold floral wallpaper with a striped rug. Incorporate eclectic art pieces and a vibrant, velvet-upholstered headboard in a “pop” color like emerald or saffron.
- Why it works: It shows personality. Guests love staying in spaces that feel like they have a unique “soul” rather than a hotel-chain neutrality.
