Now that you have decided on a style and you have an idea for your furniture, it's time to incorporate extra touches for an exceptional home. Accent furniture and other decorator inspired elements can go a long way in making your home unique. Choose basics that stand the test of time and then add trendy accents to update your decor.
One of the most important things you can do is to decide on comfortable furniture that you can enjoy in your leisure time. Inviting upholstered sofas and love seats, sumptuous leather sectionals and ultra comfortable motion recliners are popular now. Choose from updated collections offered by reputable name brands with a reputation for outstanding manufacturing and a wide range of styles.
Today there are plenty of styles to choose from, anywhere from classic traditional to edgy contemporary. You may love the honesty of simple industrial furniture, or the inviting feeling of coastal furniture that evokes pleasant visions of a seaside respite. Casual farmhouse furniture is another look that endures, and updated classics will stand the test of time.
Here are some ideas to create a beautiful and comfortable home you can be proud of.
Find a Focal Point
Interior decorators will tell you to arrange your furniture around a focal point like a natural architectural feature. A beautiful fireplace or a large picture window can serve as a focal point in your room. If you don't have a distinctive feature, simply design one by including an electric fireplace, an interesting work of art or an unusual accent piece like a cabinet or a free-standing bar.
Add a Splash of Color
Enhance a neutral color palette with a vivid splash of color like a shade of ocean blue or green to add to the indoor/outdoor feel. Juxtaposing an accent color of yellow or orange can bring out the blues to make them look even more vibrant. Stunning accent furniture like a credenza or an accent table are a good way to incorporate color.
Get Some Greenery
Indoor plants never really go out of style, and today they are having a moment. Bring the outdoors in with easy care green plants and add to the look by opening up your curtains to expose beautiful outdoor views. Spider plants, potted jade plants and the leafy Swiss Cheese plant (monsters) are good choices that require little care.
A Touch of Gold
As a finishing touch, add attractive gold accents to express your good taste. Gold tones bring luxury and warmth, or you can use bronze for a deeper color. Silver can accentuate the straight lines and simple silhouettes of contemporary designs.
