Decoration

My first idea was to have a consistent pattern or design throughout the building to avoid possible clashing which may occur if there were for example different designs for each strand or room, when doing a sample questionnaire, I found that more students agreed with this idea than did not .
On further reflection of this initial idea, I began thinking of what this design may be and felt personally that pattern rather then imagery will work better as I feel it wont date as quickly if done subtly. I went on to think of how i might go about implementing a subtle pattern while still making it visible but not tacky. My leading idea for a way of doing this was too use two different shades of the same colour, for instance two close shades of blue one as a base layer the other the colour of the pattern on top.
