Tips for Stylish Spaces

Add a Block of Color.

You don’t need to spend a lot of money to gain a beautiful home fit for décor magazines. By implementing some important tips, you can achieve it easily.

                                          A Pop of Color Transforms a Room

Make it Light.

Neutrals are always held in high esteem in a luxurious home. They allow for clean, sleek lines and soothing atmospheres. However, a block of color can help to give the space an edge. Tip: The color should appear in small amounts to make the most effect.

                                                   Brightness Should Be a Décor Staple

 There’s nothing stylish about dark, dull homes. In fact, they can make your space appear smaller and less hospitable. Let lots of light into your home by making use of large windows and painting walls in light colors.

                                                  Focused Lighting
Also use lighting fixtures that focus on certain areas which need more brightness. For example, a spotlight directly over a kitchen countertop can help to illuminate a kitchen.

Add a Unique Feature.

                                                Get More Creative with Center-Stage Pieces
 Being more creative with furniture is a great way to give your home an extra slice of style. Every room should have one piece of furniture or décor that is eye-catching and creative. In the bedroom, it can be the headboard. A creative headboard such as the one with panels in the above image looks great when set against a traditionally designed bedroom, giving it a modern twist.

Bring in an Interesting Pattern.

Patterns help to give your home character. Invest in some great ones that are classic and trendy, such as a marimekko design. The colors used on your patterns can be linked to the color scheme of the room, or they can be in a bit of contrast to it, providing visual interest.

Texture is Important.

Warm up the Space with Texture

 Texture in fabrics and upholstery elevates the mood in a room and can make a big difference in its style. Rooms designed with cool colors, such as grey, can benefit from warmer textures, such as fluffy bedding or chair throws. These help to counter the coolness. Think about bringing softening 

fabrics to a room to make it cozier.

Balance Looks.

                                          Set Eclectic Décor Against Stylish Backgrounds
Provide equilibrium between different styles in a room. For instance, mix industrial-styled furniture or grey colors with wood; while chevron-designed floorboards can be blended with a rug of a completely different pattern. This eclectic style is always in high fashion, and what makes the look glamorous is the finishing of the background: the crisp white walls and sheer curtains.-Via
