Creating a beautiful space can seem like a dream. If you have an area of your home where you want to amp up the style of the room design, it can be easier than you think. At Custom Shades of London, we love showing our clients how to bring the right statements into the room, take care of common household issues and make everything come together. We’re coming to you today with five ideas–and all you have to do is pick the one you love. By selecting the statement you’d like to make, you’re well on your way!
Lights
Lighting can be the missing element in your room design, or it can be the shining star. From pendant lighting to chandeliers, and from accent lamps to wall sconces, there are so many beautiful ways to accentuate your space with lights. The finishes coordinate with other features in your space, bringing everything together.
Walls
Feature walls are an incredible style element to add to your room design. The options are endless when you want to create the backdrop of your home. Colors and patterns can shape the look–matching your personal style choices, from soft and subtle to moody and sophisticated. Wondering which wall to choose? The feature wall tends to be the one you are facing as you walk into the room, captivating the eye.
Windows
The windows of your home bring in natural light and beautiful views–they are truly priceless. But, when that light is too strong and heat gets to be too much, or if there is foot traffic just outside, the comfort of your home is at the mercy of your windows. And, that’s where window coverings come into play. They keep your home comfortable–and beautiful. Choose a style that allows your preferred amount of light to enter, while protecting the view into your home. They can enhance the style with dramatic design or understated charm.
Ceilings
Looking for room design ideas? How about a blank slate? Just look up. The ceiling of the home is often referred to as “the fifth wall” because of the design possibilities. From wooden beams to coffered ceilings, adding textured dimension creates a remarkable coziness and warmth. Choose to wallpaper for unique patterning, or dabble in the color drenching technique of painting all the walls, trim and ceiling the same color.
Built-in Shelves
Room design doesn’t have to be all about the look–it can be functional, too. Built-ins are all the rage in interiors these days. The reason? They fulfill the need to have accent shelving, along with appropriate storage space, or even desktop areas for workspaces. Display collections on the shelving, and then tuck away things that don’t need to be out all the time. It’s a win-win in the design world!
