What creates great room decor? Some would say the type of furniture in the room is what makes or breaks the decor of a room, others would say, the color or style of the room is what creates the best room decor. Still other voices would insist that decor isn't a focus to the way they furnish a room, but a side note to their life given little thought. When it's all said and done, from my perspective, all decor is an expression. An expression of thoughts, art, color, design, personality, taste, and much more. Each person is unique, and being a unique individual is the basis for unique decor, decor that is all ones own.
It is self expression that customizes and personalizes room decor. Even if a person doesn't give much thought to the room decor they are creating, they are creating an environment and decor in that room none the less. Room decor is an expression of life and lifestyle. An expression that we live our lives in each day.
Furniture, color, design, style, personality and more create an environment. It is that environment that has an impact on each person. Studies on how a color influences behavior and feelings have been done again and again; what a person sees and experiences has an impact in their lives. For this reason it makes sense to fill our room decor with things we love, things that bring positive thoughts, and feelings into our lives each day.
Sleek design, weathered design, soft, contrasting, rough, old, new, all types of finishes and textures are the perfect texture to the one who loves them. There is no one way to use them, combine, or envision them. That is the beauty of room decor. That is the beauty of design. It can be as unique as each individual is.
