First identify if you definitely prefer classic and formal, cool and contemporary or an earthy, more exotic type decor style.
You can always decorate your home in a mix of styles if your tastes overlap.
Combine the sleek lines of contemporary sofas and chairs with the formality of classic accent pieces such as tables and lamps for an upbeat effect.
Increase the sense of personality in each room of your home by coordinating various tones of one color; add personal touches such as framed pictures of loved ones or art on the walls in coordinating colors.

By being flexible and imaginative, you can take the journey of style as far as you want to go or within a safe dynamic that you set.
Decorate your home with the items that reflect who you are, your lifestyle and with the style you absolutely love.
