SHOW YOUR STYLE

 

Be in a place that showcases your style; who you are.    That shows your confidence in a way that resonates. 

 Being in a place that is beautiful allows you to contemplate things:

Be: Functional
Be: Casual
Be: Usable
Be: Comfortable


The living room can be considered the most important room in the house for styling your creativity. It is where we spend most of our time with family and friends. It often receives the lion's share of the soft furnishing and the decoration budget.

I recommend taking an artistic approach when designing your living room. It is a fun and exciting way to express yourself and showcase your unique style. The objective is to immerse yourself in a space that you love surrounded by objects that are meaningful to you. I can think of nothing better than to be enveloped by what you love. 

Here is how you can get started on your own home's personal living space. 

CHOOSE A COLOR SCHEME THAT YOU LOVE

Start by selecting a dominant color for larger spaces, such as walls and floors. The more layering you do in the same color, the more calming its effect. 

The use of natural woven wallpapers is stylish and neutral at the same time. Be bold and take risks with contrasting colors on accents like cushions, lamps, or objects such as planters, bowls, and books.

TRY UNEXPECTED MIXES…

just because it brings you joy and makes you smile!  Include pieces that have sentimental value; finds from vacations, garage sales, inheritances, or whatever speaks to you!

MAKE IT A SPACE TO “HANG OUT” AND USABLE

Make it comfortable!  Comfort is essential to successful living rooms, so use furniture that is conducive for “hanging out.”  The aim is for you and your guests to sit back, place drinks on tables within reach and preferably without coasters, use lights that can be dimmed to set a mood and have chairs positioned to ‘talk’ to each other. 

Think closeness, togetherness, warmth, and openness when designing. The aim is to stay and enjoy!  What could be more important, in our current tech environment, than friends and family?

BALANCE FORM AND FUNCTION

Living rooms are meant for living. Space planning, chosen materials, and activities all need to be considered. Bookcases, games tables, and coffee tables are all selected according to a family function.

EXPRESS YOURSELF!

Designing living spaces with artistic flair is all about expressing yourself and showcasing your unique style. Ask yourself: Does this room reflect who I am and share what I love? Do I want to be and stay here late into the night?  The answer should be YES!

                                       For the love of success,

For the love of driving business forward,
