Dating back to Versailles, and its first resurgence in 19th century Paris, chevron is de rigueur again, coming back on the decor and design scene last year, and is still going strong. Use it subtly as a classic flooring pattern, or for a more contemporary approach, paint an accent wall in this popular pattern. Especially great for nurseries, the bold pattern is perfect for babies’ development. We used it on the angular ceiling of our daughter’s nursery for added impact. Don’t want to make that kind of commitment? Now that the pattern is showing up everywhere, you can easily pick up accents like decorative folders for your office or pillows to freshen up your living or bedroom space.
