If you are looking for 8 methods that you can use to style your dream home, then look no further than the list below. It is our sincere hope that you find ways to implement any one of these 8 secrets to assist yourself in re-decorating and styling your home.
1. Wall Art
Whether you are contemplating a room or complete home refresh creating a focal point with wall art is an excellent option. Consider the ambience you are aiming to achieve, the size of the room and its architectural features it is to be showcased on. Hang 1 or 2 large pieces of art to make the room feel wider and more spacious. Hang art to sit wide and low to bring the eye level down and widen the room.
2. Metallics
Metallics add a touch of glamour and they do not need to be limited to fixed surfaces. Ornaments, lamps and fabric cushions with a shining finish can enrich and enliven your space.
3. Lighting
Lighting is a versatile design tool and can enhance your space in many ways by providing decorative effects, improving the sense of space, accentuating architecture and defining zones in open plan areas. The key to a well lit room is to introduce multiple layers that integrate ambient, decorative and task lighting efficiently.
4. Mirrors
Utilizing mirrors can open up and liven any space. Mirrors make a room feel larger with its reflective qualities and help bring in the outside in. Mirrors reflect both natural and artificial light to make a room brighter during the day and night. Our favorite type of mirrors are our Hexagonal Mirrors because they are easy to install for an instant room refresh and are suitable for almost every room in your house.

5. Intention
When decorating a room create a focal point that will draw the eye, so there is less emphasis on the layout. In the living room the focal point is usually the coffee table, fireplace or bookshelves, so make sure it is the star of the room by curating a balance of functional and decorative items.
6. Serenity
Create a luxury bedroom at home comparable to a 5 star hotel. Making these changes will make you feel like you are on holiday and find it easier to unwind, rest, sleep and recover.
7. Color Palette
The color palette you choose for your bedroom can impact on your sleep. Therefore, consider the feeling and mood you want in the room. White is known for feeling airy and bright and evoke a sense of cleanliness. Green and blue are calming colors that reflect being outdoors. Avoid bright colors like red or orange which are stimulating and could diminish the wind down before sleep.
8. Splashes of Color
It is always effective to use a palette of light colors but in different textures and materials to create a larger feel. Also, the right furniture size or multiple zones create a perception of different spaces within one room. Therefore, stick to a neutral scheme in smaller areas and introduce splashes of color with ornaments and accessories.
People typically think of decorating their house with color on their walls... but where it's typically missed is on the floor. To add a splash of simple color to your bedroom or living room, try our plush rug, which you can find HERE
