So without any further ado, let’s get started!
- Multiply the visual interest with charming window treatments
A picturesque view outside deserves to be seen through visually stunning windows. Your windows frame your room. Thus, a tiny tweak here and there can amplify the voguish appeal of your home interiors.
Start with choosing the right curtains. Always remember this – a well-illuminated space is always better than a dull area. The curtain design should allow and cancel sunlight as per your wish.
While you can choose between transparent and opaque curtains, here’s my little secret – the best bet is to choose an amalgamation of both.
There are a range of beautiful opaque and transparent curtains in the market. Sheer flowy curtains and classy blinds work great as well in framing the artistic appeal of the windows.
Not only that, you can also accentuate the height of the walls by placing the curtains right at the top of the ceilings. This will give a sense of illusion of height which enhances the luxurious grandeur of the space.
- Gallery walls have got you and your home aesthetics covered
Do you have a plain and simple wall that speaks for nothing but mundane and boring? Add life to these walls by transforming them into a gallery wall.
Hell yeah, it is in the trends now and is currently roaring the charts of decor designs loved by decor enthusiasts and aesthetic lovers. A well themed wall is always better than a wall that has been a haphazard mess of different colors, shapes and varieties.
While different colors, designs and textures make up for a striking artistic appeal, it usually goes well with large spaces. Small spaces loaded with different sized frames and designs do not always look appealing to the eyes.
If you are not a fan of gallery walls, you can also experiment with sophisticated similar themed photo frames or geometrical shaped hanging shelves decorated with your favorite knick-knacks.
- Make a statement with the statement wall
Wondering what can transform your drab looking walls into inspiring posh corners? You guessed it right – exquisite wallpapers.
Wallpapers are easier on the pockets than paints. They come in various playful, rich, fun and sophisticated designs to go according to your aesthetic taste.
Pasting a wallpaper is surely the best way to recreate the entire aura of an area. Depending on your taste, you can either choose from posh or funky designs to revamp a corner in a matter of minutes.
Well, I have something for my commitment phobic readers as well. If you are scared of regretting your decision later, you can always choose from removable wallpaper options that are as appealing as it gets.
- Outshine your interiors with the warmth of rugs.
You can’t underestimate the irresistible magic of rugs when it comes to liven up dead and unwelcoming spaces. While some rugs gracefully compliment the overall decor of the space, some own and outshine the room completely.
There are innumerable options of rugs you can choose from. But your decision should be based on the overall decor, interior and of course your personal taste.
Bright and patterned rugs work splendidly to introduce new refreshing energy into any space of your choice. The patterns and bright textures help to add personality to an otherwise dull environment.
With the kind of depth and definition it brings to an area, it should totally be in your list of materials to revamp a space. It can even be used on the stairs to get a dramatizing effect.
As much as the colors and patterns of the rugs can make an impact on a space, its placement is also very important. Apart from placing it horizontally or vertically to create an illusion of space to the room, you can also place it diagonally or one over another to create a layered effect.
- Create a startling vibe utilizing the magic of lights
When it comes to interior designing, one cannot ignore the dreamy impact that the perfect lighting can have on a space. Today, interior designers consider lighting as one of the most important factors in their projects.
A scintillating set of decorative lights can do wonders to add magic to any of your space. The options are vast – scintillating chandeliers, wall sconces, teardrop bulbs, pendant lighting, floor lamps and many more.
Lighting is usually considered as a necessity that can be fulfilled by anything average rather than a decorative factor. But once you know the difference, the game is changed forever.
