Designer Secrets to Having a Wow Interior to Live in
Your home is a place that provides many functions! It provides shelter and a space to re-charge, restore and relax both physically and psychologically. It is one of the few places in life you can express yourself freely and creatively to experience an accurate reflection of your true authentic self.
Spaces have the ability to inspire and support one’s dreams, goals, fantasies, and Soul-Style. The goal of a well curated and designed environment is to fully align with your heart and soul, to have the elements that you surround yourself with reflect back to you what you value, and give you a reflection of your highest self as it promotes a sense of well- being and peace.
This level of intentional design provides a physical-emotional link between the outside world and your Inner Spirit so you can manifest the life of your dreams. Great design will inspire evolutionary change in your human behavior especially when it is done with your human design profile as a guideline.
The Spirit of your Style could be an Eclectic mix of elegant, calming, comfortable, and artsy or having global influences with contemporary and traditional elements.
How do you really know?
Beginning the journey of discovering what your soul-style is will help you recognize the details that must be woven into your entire environment to make it your sacred sanctuary.
A few designer secrets to determining what your Soul-Style is and curating a wow interior:
1. Identify the style of art you gravitate to: Is it abstract? Figurative? Flowers? Landscape?
Our taste in art often shapes our style in furnishings.
2. Look at rooms on Pinterest and connect to the furnishings that inspire you to want to be in that room and begin with one anchor piece that has the feeling and look.
3. Play with color and the various elements-Discover your power colors and integrate them into your rooms.
4. Greens represent wood. Blue represents water. Silver, Gold and white represent Metal. Beige, stone color, and rust represent earth. Red, purple and magenta represent fire.
Bring in the color and element you are intuitively drawn to. Make sure you have a little of all the elements to create a balanced energetic space.
5. The presence of the right Objects of Art and accessories that pull everything together and tell a story about your past and present, collect objects that tell a story of who you are.
6. Try a new floor plan arrangement that offers a better traffic flow and space to enjoy a new perspective. Moving your furniture is always a good way to feel a new fresh space.
7. Bring fresh live plants and flowers into your space to connect the outside with the inside and add great energy to the rooms.
8.Create a special corner of a room that is just yours. Put a comfy chair table lamp and foot stool so you can meditate, write, read and relax undisturbed (this is very important when you live with others)
