Moiré, a textile traditionally associated with luxurious interiors and formalwear, is experiencing a resurgence in popularity within contemporary design. This distinctive "watered" silk, created by pressing two layers of fabric together, produces an iridescent, shimmering effect that adds a touch of opulence and visual intrigue. From upholstery and curtains to cushions and lampshades, moiré is being reimagined in modern color palettes and unexpected applications, bringing a sense of textural richness and dynamic pattern to a variety of spaces.

Successfully pairing paint with wallpaper involves considering the wallpaper's dominant and accent colors. Pulling a paint color directly from the wallpaper design creates a cohesive and harmonious look. If the wallpaper is bold and patterned, opt for a complementary neutral paint to provide balance. Conversely, a subtler wallpaper might benefit from a bolder paint color drawn from its accent hues. Testing paint samples against the wallpaper in different lighting conditions is crucial to ensuring a pleasing final result.
