Design Your Home to be cohesive to your Uniqueness

Updated: Mar 21, 2023

  • Design your spaces to be cohesive, unique, and represent you.

    1. Start with a neutral base: Begin by selecting neutral colors for walls and large pieces of furniture, such as sofas or chairs. This will allow you to add more colorful accents and accessories later on without overwhelming the space.

    2. Mix textures and patterns: Combining different textures and patterns adds depth and interest to a room. Use a mix of smooth, rough, shiny, and matte surfaces to create contrast and visual appeal.

    3. Play with scale: Mix large and small pieces of furniture, artwork, and accessories to create a dynamic and balanced space. Use larger pieces to anchor the room and smaller pieces to add interest and detail.

    4. Layer lighting: Use a combination of overhead lighting, task lighting, and accent lighting to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Use dimmers to adjust the brightness of the light and create different moods.

    5. Create a focal point: Choose a statement piece, such as a bold piece of artwork or a unique piece of furniture, to serve as the focal point of the room. This will draw the eye and give the room a sense of purpose and style.

    6. Add greenery: Plants and flowers add life and freshness to a space. Use them to add color and texture, and to bring a touch of nature indoors.

    7. Don't forget about the ceiling: The ceiling is often overlooked, but it can add interest and depth to a room. Paint it a different color or add wallpaper to create a unique look.
