Miley Cyrus's blue dining room perfects this intelligent layering technique – she found the 'critical' balance between pattern and color

Miley Cyrus.

Creating a home that's equal parts playful and maximalist as it is sophisticated is no easy feat – but it is possible, as Miley Cyrus' LA abode exemplifies. Designed by her mom, Tish Cyrus (and her design partner, Mat Sanders), the SoCal estate serves as a calming retreat for the singer – without sacrificing lighthearted fun. The entire property taps into this ideology, but arguably, no space epitomizes it quite like the dining room. The secret to its success is in its expert layering.

In her dining room, Cyrus crucially starts with a light blue-gray foundation before introducing a pattern through the upholstery on her dining chairs. The open-plan space flows into the entryway, complete with colorful art books, a statement house plant, and a David Bowie print. Despite featuring a combination of bold patterns, prints, and colors, Cyrus's dining space remains calm – proving that maximalism shouldn't feel overwhelming.
