The wall art job in this dining room is handled by a beautiful collection of china plates. They're a mix of sizes and slightly different patterns and shades. And the display helps draw the eye up, calling attention to the room's high ceiling.

This dining room's blended white and blue chairs feel instantly pulled together with the help of the 3D plate collection displayed on a nearby wall.

Add unexpected decor items to a kitchen or bar for a cheerful, eclectic look. Here, designers added cookbooks, candles, pretty art. Blue china plates liven up the back wall.

Although this living room and adjacent dining area contain a wide variety of shades, repeated moments of blue and white (the plates on the wall, matching striped armchairs) help create an overall cohesive look.
