If you have ever wanted to get rid of all of your stuff and start over, you’re not alone. Often, we get tired of the same old same in our own homes, and fail to see the potential inside of it. The key to loving your home is often not what is in it, but how you make use of what’s in it. There’s so many ways that you can make the home that you feel so-so about turn into a home that you love. Here’s some very powerful tips to help you decorate with intention and style. We know that you’ll love your home again after trying out some of these tips: Decorate For Function Not Looks Function is one of the most important words that you’ll use when it comes to the interior design of your home. Some questions you may ask are: What purpose does this room serve? What purpose does this item serve? Does this couch/artwork/chair make you happy? A room could be the most pristinely decorated room you have ever seen, but if it doesn’t serve some kind of a purpose, you can write it off as wasted space inside of your home. If something doesn’t serve a purpose, especially if that purpose is making you happy, then it’s time to say goodbye to certain things inside of your home. Only One Piece Of Furniture Should Stand Out In Every Room One key piece of decorating advice is for you to have one simple focal point in each room. There’s no need for a fish tank, a loud orange couch and a giant painting all in the same room. Give each and every item that’s important to you its due space. That’s not to say one painting is enough in your living room, but use your judgement when it comes to what you want to stand out and where. If a room is too busy, the overwhelming look takes away from the room and all of the items in it. You don’t want pieces of furniture and artwork all competing for the attention of those who are within the room. Lighting Should Be Balanced Maybe you’re unhappy with your home because you have very little natural light in your home. There’s ways you could add some natural light through construction, but it probably isn’t necessary. Use the rule that each room should have four sources of light counting windows, overhead lights, lamps and even wall mounted lights. This will keep the rooms in your home balanced with light. When the room is brighter, you’ll be happier, even without access to tons of natural light.
