The May issue of Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles had so many beautiful interiors, I just can't help coming back to it. One of my favorite spreads was on designer Margaret Bosbyshell. Her decor for one of Buckhead's old homes is full of color and pattern, but the use of pattern is very subtle and muted. Despite being in virtually every room, the intricate looks she uses are not the first thing you notice. For those who are afraid of too much texture in a room (or for even the fearless!) this home is a great guide.
Pattern on the mantel and curtains...
Pattern in the carpet.
Patterned wallpaper.
Pattern, pattern, everywhere - can you spot all its uses in this room? Patterned walls and chairs!
Really lovely use of color and pattern-traditional, yet very fresh and modern. I love the last picture of the dining room especially-I would love to see more pictures of it.

Very pretty; if only Houston had such a stylish interiors' magazine of its own, too!
Style Redux - I agree. What really struck me about these rooms was how LITTLE the pattern stood out - yet it was everywhere.
Averill - I can't believe Houston doesn't! It's a very stylish city! Maybe you should work on fixing that :)
Those are some great images...the use of pattern is subtle and very easy to the eye!
Thanks!!
Amazing that a city can have a magazine like that of it's very own! Love these images, thanks for sharing them with us!
Love the green Pivione wallpaper in the bedroom!!!!!!
That bedroom makes me happy. SO do the peonies!
Beautiful! I esp. love the spring-ish green in the bedroom. Have a great short week!
Bright and stylish rooms with just the right amount of pattern, thanks for sharing.
