Simply rearrange your current pieces for a new summer look!<\/em><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Do you ever look around your space and feel the need for change?<\/p>\n<p>Many of our clients think the only way to refresh their surroundings is to buy new furniture, but that\u2019s not always the case.<\/p>\n<p>While we encourage infusing new accent pieces into the mix every season (we <em>are<\/em> a home d\u00e9cor company, after all!) sometimes it\u2019s simply about re-arranging your furniture to create a whole new look!<\/p>\n<p>Are you ready to try something different? Here are 3 unique furniture combinations to experiment with this summer. (We used !nspire furniture, but feel free to try these arrangements with your own pieces!)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unique Furniture Combination #1: Plush Accent Chair With Sleek Table<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When arranging furniture, it\u2019s important to consider size, shape, texture and detail. It\u2019s a great idea to mix these elements and play with different arrangements to make your space feel more interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Many people stick to one style; for example, minimalist\u2019s love sleek furniture designs where everything is streamlined and sharp.<\/p>\n<p>What they don\u2019t realize is that it\u2019s still possible to play with different elements while remaining true to their aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>For example, instead of keeping <em>every <\/em>piece of furniture streamlined, create an unexpected surprise with a plush accent chair; then pair it with one of your current streamlined tables for a contrasting look.<\/p>\n<p>We love the idea of the <a href=\"http:\/\/inspireathome.com\/philippe-accent-chair-in-black.html\">Philippe accent chair<\/a> next to the <a href=\"http:\/\/inspireathome.com\/akram-square-accent-table-in-dark-sheesham.html\">Akram square accent table<\/a>. The juxtaposition of these pieces creates an interesting vibe while still playing within the minimalist motif.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_869\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"http:\/\/localhost\/worldwidehome-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/inspire11.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-869\" class=\"size-full wp-image-869\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost\/worldwidehome-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/inspire11.png\" alt=\"Chunky and sleek go together perfectly.\" width=\"770\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/inspire11.png 770w, https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/inspire11-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/inspire11-768x383.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-869\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chunky and sleek go together perfectly.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>You should never be afraid to make a statement with one or two pieces that feel outside of your comfort zone; it\u2019s what makes your space unique!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unique Furniture Combination #2: 2 Accent Chairs In Place Of A Sofa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to get caught up in routine styling, i.e. two identical facing sofas with a coffee table in the middle. There\u2019s nothing<em> wrong<\/em> with this tried and true combination, but if you\u2019re feeling bored, it\u2019s time to make a change.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of two facing sofas, we love the idea of replacing one sofa with two bold accent chairs; this not only adds visual interest to your space, but allows you to enjoy your own space while reading a book or sipping your morning coffee.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/inspireathome.com\/durango-accent-chair-in-brown.html\">Durango Accent Chair<\/a> is our top pick for styling your space with accent chairs. Its soft-textured, neutral fabric works beautifully in most rooms and complements any aesthetic.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_870\" style=\"width: 598px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"http:\/\/localhost\/worldwidehome-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/blog3pic2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-870\" class=\" wp-image-870\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost\/worldwidehome-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/blog3pic2.png\" alt=\"Liven up your space by decorating with accent chairs.\" width=\"588\" height=\"592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/blog3pic2.png 494w, https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/blog3pic2-298x300.png 298w, https:\/\/worldwidehomefurnishingsinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/blog3pic2-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-870\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Liven up your space by decorating with accent chairs.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Having two accent chairs in place of a sofa also presents an opportunity to experiment with <a href=\"http:\/\/inspireathome.com\/accent-furniture\/accent-end-nesting-tables.html\">accent tables<\/a> or a set of <a href=\"http:\/\/inspireathome.com\/accent-seating\/ottomans.html\">ottomans<\/a> to !nspire relaxation.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get caught up in matching, either.
