Vivacious and primitive, leopard print is nothing new, but it continues to defy traditional patterns found in home furnishings and accessories. The animal itself symbolizes bravery, courage, stealth and strength, and I believe a decorator who uses this pattern also possesses those same qualities. Its connotations range from playful to luxurious, and its attention-grabbing pattern enhances any decor style.

An neo-traditional conversation area with layers of sophistication receives an instant update from a bergere chair bedecked in leopard.

A soothing overall palette of cream and brown provides a relaxing backdrop and allows for a little spontaneity from the printed ottoman.

Because of its bold print, just a touch of leopard goes a long way. Accent pillows and side chair finish the room and also makes it easier for the homeowner to transition to another style when ready.

Honestly, it’s only been within the past year that I’ve grown to like leopard prints. And later writing this ideabook for houzz.com piqued my interested even more. What I love most about leopard is its feisty appeal and unexpected presence. How about you?
