We've all heard of color drenching and pattern drenching, but floral drenching might just be the latest iteration to emerge in this maximalist practice. Look no further than Zooey Deschanel and Jonathan Scott's home for proof.
Their recently-redesigned Manhattan home, as seen on Instagram, is equal parts whimsical and refined, with the help of designer Young Huh transforming the space into a colorful oasis.
The floral entryway is showstopping, with a multicolor wallpaper covering all sides (it's truly floralmaxxing). However, the flowers are cut by a black archway, as well as marble floors and ornate green and gold wall sconces. It's certainly a bold way to decorate with flowers, but one that we can get behind.

If you're looking to try floral drenching, it doesn't get more stylish than this softly colored begonia floral designed by the fashion and lifestyle brand RHODE for West Elm. The wallpaper comes in peel-and-stick panels, so it is easy to install and remove.
An utterly classic floral motif that will always look beautiful in any season, in any year. The depth this colorway and motif adds to a room is quite extraordinary and can make an icy cold room feel much toastier and cozier almost instantly.
Design experts say that if you're looking for a unique way to introduce florals into the home, then wallpaper is a fantastic route to take.
'For those seeking to incorporate flowers in unconventional ways, several creative approaches stand out,' Westchester-based designer Nina Lichtenstein explains. 'One option is using floral wallpaper in unexpected places, such as ceilings or accent walls, to create a striking focal point.'
We're inclined to think that covering all surfaces in a bold floral print, like Zooey and Jonathan's space, meets the mark. Nina says accent pieces are also fantastic if you're looking for a more subdued look.
'Another innovative idea is to feature floral textiles in furniture upholstery or throw pillows, which can offer a fresh twist on traditional decor,' she continues. 'Additionally, incorporating three-dimensional floral elements, like sculptural wall art or floral-patterned rugs, adds depth and texture to a room. For a more subtle approach, consider floral-themed accessories, such as decorative vases or lampshades, which can infuse your space with a hint of floral charm without overwhelming the design.'
For the maximalists among us, floral wallpapers might just be the answer to achieving a bold yet unexpected look anywhere from an entryway to a bathroom.
