Stylish Stripes

In the teen’s room, raspberry-striped wallpaper adds a touch of Hollywood glamour. Run on the horizontal (a technique called "railroading"), it looks modern but is cozy. Large-scale floral prints on the ottoman, chair, and pillows echo the walls, but their similar chocolate brown background colors don’t compete for attention. A smaller scale stripe with pinks, greens, and browns (on the curtains and back of the chair) ties the room together.
