Finding your decorating style is not as hard as you might think. Everybody has their own style and asking someone else to decorate your living space is not always the best idea. Your style is unique and explaining it to someone else is not always easy. Here are three ways to get in touch with your style – so get out a pen and paper!
- Start by examining the way you are dressed. Take what you wear and strip it down to the very basics. What colors do you like? Is it punk? Hip-hop? Glam? What kind of jewelry are you wearing? Chunky? Delicate? No jewelry at all? Write it on your paper.
- Look at lots of art. Make sure you look through different types too. Start with the classics and work your way up into modern artwork. Do you like classic dreamy paintings or the exotic airy style of minimalist art? Does the art style match your style of dressing or is it the opposite? Add it to your paper.
- Critically examine your hobbies. Do you like biking? Music and bands? Figure out who or what you want on your walls and how they fit with your other style components.
Combine your style paper into a list of what you like. Zebra stripes, fluffy pink pillows and the hard rock band Rammstein will give you a unique look – but it will also make your living space something you can relate to. Make your space just for you – a place where you can be yourself and relax.
