People get bored of the same decor over a period of time. In order to give a refreshing new
look to the rooms it is necessary to make changes in the decor of the interiors.
Attractive interiors do not need large floor spaces or
elaborate furnishings if one is a little innovative. It is possible to change the look of your
interiors without bringing in expensive objects of décor or going through
elaborate renovations. All you need is
some basic reorientation to the scheme, and you have another dimension to your
décor. Interior décor also lies in
presentation. It is a matter of
displaying artifacts and objects of utility, and changing the display can bring
in a new look.
The living room is normally furnished with basic
furniture, showcase holding artifacts, a cabinet for books, and the TV
too. You would also have a center and corner table to complement the seating arrangement. Here, you could experiment
with the layout of the seating. This,
most often, is the most flexible part of the living room. All you need to do is move it to another part of the living
room to bring in some change. While doing so, you need to ensure the comfort of
those using them. It is easier to bring in some change using the corner
and center tables. Get a new set of table top figurines in terracotta or even
wood for them. Keep at least four
different-coloured table cloths to change every few months. This will see your
interiors constantly changing.
Another option is to create a decor scheme using wall
hangings. You can create an ethnic ambience using wall hangings made of fabrics. These are easy to maintain and can be changed often. A collection of wall hangings can create a
theme and changing them will see another dimension to your interior decor.
The bed room furniture-the bed, wardrobe and dressing table will be difficult to move. The key
to changing bedroom décor is in fabrics. If you have brightly-coloured fabrics for the bed, use similar bright
fabrics for curtains. Also, arrange a
group of pictures and curios on the dressing table. Bring change through colour of fabrics and
objects of décor you use on the dressing table. The more the number of décor objects you display, the more noticeable
the change when you bring in different ones. Get a couple of large scenic picture prints framed for
this space. Place one each on opposite
walls. Scenes of pretty landscapes are
relaxing and go well in a bedroom. Changing the scene brings about a new look almost like you are in a new place. Such
prints are not too expensive and you can change them every few months.
The outdoors is easy to manage. This space does not require as many objects
of decor as the indoors do. All you need
is a couple of large objects in relation
to the dimension of space there to bring
about a change. Use earthen or
terracotta objects here. Ideally, you
should have portable rather than fixed objects in this space. It is easier and less expensive to change a
moveable object.
A small water body could do wonders for your patio or garden. You could experiment with a
small fountain with some landscaping around. A change in the landscaping design will make the space and fountain look
different. Another option would be to
get a new look using potted plants.
Groups of potted plants re-arranged give the garden a new look.
Colours have a bearing on the decor of your home. You can bring in variety by changing
colours furnishings, fabrics or even of
décor objects. However, while you go about changing colours, you need to ensure
they blend with the rest of the objects in the room. When you change your furnishings, you should
ensure the new colour goes well with the colour of the walls and wood work too. With some simple changes, you can give your interiors anew look.
