THE FABRICS

Boston-based interior designer Nicole Hogarty layered pattern over pattern in this stylish, but still romantic, master bedroom in Newton. “We thought about the fabrics as artwork,’’ Hogarty said. The gray settee fabric, “Pandit’’ by Clarence House, was the starting point.

THE WALLS

Hogarty commissioned decorative painter Pauline Curtiss of Patina to embellish the textural grasscloth wallcovering. “The design is reminiscent of batik,’’ Curtiss said. A pair of abstract landscapes by Vermont-based artist Charles Bluett add a touch of color against the soft beige walls, painted Farrow & Ball’s “Stony Ground.’’

THE BED

Edgy prints juxtapose the romantic curves of the bed, which is upholstered in a textured jacquard. “The finish is a wonderful chameleon of a color that works well with warm and cool tones,’’ Hogarty said.

THE DRAPES

So as not to challenge the view, Hogarty chose tailored linen-blend panel drapes with a subtle decorative tape down the leading edge.
