Guest Blogger: Harry Daniell Explores Romo's High Society (Part 2 of 3)

Yesterday, Harry Daniell, of Harry Daniell Design, started exploring Romo's collection at the DDB. Here's more from Harry on how to make a room fit for a queen using one of Romo's newest collections.

When designing a room, a circle and diamond shaped print adds the initial layering of color, which brings me to the “AHA” moment. Introduce the Delphi Veridian, with teal blue fabric that is perfect for strong colored panels of drapery and throw pillows, for the neutral sofa and chair fabrics. It is in the completion of details that bring this fabric palette full circle. Throw in some teal artwork and table lamps and this room is sexy, chic and sophisticated!




Teal! Teal! Teal! Teal is one of the colors of the season, and with jewel tones trending in hospitality design, it’s not a big surprise that teal is a hot color this season. Loving Romo Fabrics, I challenged my team at Harry Daniell Design to pull teal colored fabrics—simple!




In reviewing the samples, I wanted to pull together a collection of fabrics that read sophisticated and masculine with a touch of femininity and livability. I loved the Shimoda Verdigris pattern, which would not only look phenomenal on a large sofa, but would also be so luxuriously comfortable!


Remaining with the striped theme but in stronger tones of brown and teal, the combination of Viscose and Cotton is velvety soft to the touch and equally easy on ones eyes.




In layering in a teal fabric infused pattern, I imagined for the window treatments the Mazara Veridian pattern as a perfect choice.


Stay tuned tomorrow for more on Harry Daniell's review of Romo's High Society, when he introduces some femininity into the design and enjoys 'Tea at the Ritz.'
