How To Ace in Home Styling Interior Decoration

Do you have a Pinterest board full of home styling inspirations? Or want to make your space look more aesthetic? Well, not everyone is born with a solid understanding of furniture placements and accent choices. This can often make it difficult to design a space that reflects your personal style without compromising on comfort.

But you don’t necessarily need to be a professional to ace your home styling game. Follow these simple tips to style your home the way you want-

1. Find Your Style

Home styling is a form of expression, so spend some time and pick your style. Identify the colours and patterns that you gravitate towards. You are not bound to the usual symmetrical and formal schemes. Your interior is your expression; it can be playful, unsystematic, or anything you want it to be.

For interior decoration, look for inspirations from all walks of life. Your favourite dress or artwork are some good inspirations to start with.

2. Factor in Space

For perfect home styling, plan your decoration around the available space. The size of furnishings you put in a room should be proportional to the size of the room. This will ensure the objects do not feel out of place. At the same time, no object will overshadow others in the room. Every element must exist in harmony, and you can achieve that if you plan your decor around the space.

3. Use Colour Schemes

You might have a favourite colour, and using it primarily will make your home look boring. Try to create a colour scheme of at least three colours or three shades of any one colour. Here is how professionals use colours:

• The primary colour for the walls
• Second colour for big items like couches and chairs
• Third colour for smaller decorations like pots, flowers, and pillows

Nailing the colour scheme will add contrast and depth to your interior.

4. Add Textures

Textures significantly impact the feel of your interior, adding to the depth of design and complementing the colours in the room. Draperies, furniture, and cushions are some great opportunities to introduce textures into your design. But, you are not only limited to textiles. Experiment with leather, matte and glazed accessories, plants and artwork, etc. to create a statement look.

5. Use Lighting

Lighting is key to achieving a vibrant home styling, enhancing textures and objects in the room and making the colours pop. Although you can never go wrong with natural light, try adding different light sources to your rooms. Use wall lights, downlights, up lights, and lamps to add depth to the lighting in your room. Also, use ambient lighting to set the mood in the room.

Lighting is also effective to draw attention. Use it to shift focus on unique features of a room like artwork or decorations.
