Interior Design Tips for your Home

  •  Painting closets white provides a neutral background for clothes and allows for easier selection.
  • When using a fun pattern on your wall try and keep the curtains, flooring and furniture a solid or simple texture. Using different patterns on both could cause it to look too busy.

  • Lay tile or flooring at a 45 degree angle. This will make your room look larger and more visually interesting. Also, try this technique on your kitchen or bathroom backsplash.
  • when selecting paint colour for walls, consider the colour's on your large furniture pieces in your room.  The tone-on-tone colour gives your room a cohesive look. 
  • Hang curtains or drapes as high above the top of the window and as close to the ceiling as possible. This will add vertical height and draw your eye upwards.
  • Use neutrals such as white and off-white in your bathroom to prevent lighting from reflecting colour onto you. This is more important near the mirror and makeup area. 

  • Add an assortment of items on a bookshelves to create visual interest including picture frames and accessories.  Treat books as home decor pieces and incorporate them in with your accessories.
