interior decoration

Have you completely decided that you want your living room to have a Japanese look? Or, have you dreamed of a Mediterranean bedroom all your life? Or still, no one can convince you to forget the idea of an Italian style kitchen?

No matter what look you want your rooms to have, you must make sure it fits the spaces. And, how do you do this? Either you ask an interior designer in Seattle for advice, or you search for examples of your desired style in magazines, websites, books and TV programs, and find out if it will work in your home, with its structure, its bones.

Remember, the best way to go is practical, so, forget about a Japanese look in a house with a Santa Fe style. It is never advisable to have different looks in different rooms; the whole house must have a personality, and it must be sustained throughout every space. A balanced look will transmit tranquility, harmony, peace and beauty, which is what you desire your home to convey.

You want to be within a space that calms you, welcomes you and protects you, while welcoming visitors openly and in a friendly way. Within every home, there is a natural flow of powerful, good energy that expands to its inhabitants when each room communicates with the other in terms of style. Of course each room should have its own personality depending on its purpose, but always blending with the rest of the house, and forming a bigger and unique whole.

Likewise, there are many ways to incorporate a style or look within the rooms in your home. If you have furniture in a particular style, you can make use of the colors of that style or era to bring out the pieces and be creative with a look. Color can really make a special piece stand out and it is very efficient to achieve an eclectic look. If you have lots of beautiful furniture pieces, keep the background simple and plain so that these become the center of attention and the space doesn't look overloaded.

Most importantly, be certain that you love the look you choose, do not just select it because everyone else is doing it. Remember you will be living there, and you must be able to enjoy it for a long time. Your taste is the only thing that matters.

Again, make sure you investigate prior to deciding on a certain look, there are many options today, and you may end up finding another one you like more or that complements your life much better!
