Vertical or horizontal stripes – which are best?

This really is up to you. In many cases, vertical stripes tend to elongate a room and can add the illusion of height. However, horizontal stripes are just as impactful and can make a room feel more expansive. These are also a little more modern and edgy than vertical stripes. Either way, the choice is yours and stripes is always a winner in our book.
