I've always been drawn to the structured and serene appearance of symmetrical design.
Perfect symmetry is characterized by the positioning of identical objects on either side of a vertical axis, with each half being an exact mirror image of the other.
However, this sense of balance can also be achieved with approximate symmetry.
A room is given added interest when objects on either side of a central axis are similar in scale and visual weight, but are varied enough to prevent the design from appearing too predictable or monotonous.
The following images beautifully illustrate how adding subtle variations in shape, size, pattern and colour can create an entirely new dimension of style to a symmetrical design scheme.

Whether visual interest is achieved through an asymmetrical mantle display, an offset furniture layout, or the addition of an accent chair, solitary lamp or unusual decor piece, the end result is always the same;
A beautiful room designed with the perfect balance of symmetry and style.
