Bee Right In Style With This Hot New Trend


March 12th, 2012

Geometric patterns have been such a hot trend over the past few years. Moroccan, Ikat and Chevron patterns have marched into our homes in the form of everything from fabric to accessories to wall stencils.

Well make room for a pattern that is as old as the bees; honeycomb. West Elm has chosen honeycomb as their pattern of the year.

These blue honeycomb tiles make such a pretty back splash.

Don’t you just love this bathroom at The Soho Beach House in Miami? The view’s not too bad either.

I also like these pretty honeycomb fabric white chairs. They add some nice texture to this living room.

  • I don’t have this pattern anywhere in my home yet, but just might find a reason to make a spot for it. Maybe some throw pillows, or something like that… I really like the West Elm containers, too.

    I have seen this pattern coming out more and more. I really love that room and chairs from HB and that drum shade is so pretty with those colors. Did not know it had a name!

      I have been seeing the pattern everywhere as well. I’ve always been a sucker for any kind of geometric and how can you not love the bees?
