A Little Art on the Side
I fell in love with this off-balanced look. Asymmetrical balance is a design that looks balanced despite a lack of symmetry. Formal balance means the elements in the design (photo, painting, structure) are symmetrical. Informal balance means they are not strictly symmetrical, but appear to be so because of the composition of slightly asymmetrical elements.
Doesn’t this room look more interesting because the mirror is off center?:
I definitely think so. It looks cool. It's such an unusual placement that it doesn't appear to be an accident. It looks like a statement, the statement being I make my own rules!
I never thought I would like an asymmetrical look in a room. Never say never in design or color. Do you ever use this off-balance look when decorating your home? I wanted to give it a try:Hmmmmmm… What do you think? I like different. I will live with it awhile and let you know. Let’s see if my husband notices and says anything. It will be a lot easier dusting! :)Have a great weekend everyone!Kelly xo
