Chintz: Small-Scale Repetition

A small floral print textile. The pattern consists of densely repeated small flowers and delicate leaves, with a unit diameter of only three to five centimeters. The background color is white or cream, and the flower colors are pale pink, sage green, and light blue, with low, soft saturation. It is used for curtains, bedding, tablecloths, or upholstery on a chair. Due to its small scale, it appears almost as a soft texture from a distance. Avoid: using large floral prints and realistic flowers, using highly saturated bright colors, making the pattern scale large, using geometric and modern abstract patterns.

一片小碎花的織品。圖案是密集重複的小花與細葉,單元的直徑只有三到五公分;底色是白或奶油,花的顏色是淡粉、鼠尾草綠與淺藍,彩度低而柔和。它用在窗簾、床品、桌布或一張椅子的包布上。因為尺度小,遠看幾乎是一片柔和的質地。避免:使用大朵的印花與寫實的花卉、使用高彩度的鮮豔顏色、把圖案的尺度做大、使用幾何與現代的抽象圖案。
