An asymmetrical arrangement
harmonizes objects of many
different shapes and sizes.
Balance a tall, large object with
several smaller ones, but not
too small—mantels swallow
up dinky accessories. Nestle
the assemblage tightly
together to increase its visual
weight, and overlap shapes to
create layers. A concise color
palette gives seemingly
unrelated objects a unifying
theme. Shop your house or
discount stores for items in
the same color family. You
can’t miss with pitchers, plates,
books, and pottery.
