Decorating Themes – Kickstart Your Interior Design Inspiration

Do you feel a tad too bored every time you walk into your house? Does it seem like ages since you enjoyed your living space? If you answered yes to all of these queries then it’s high time you got around to refurbishing your home. How will you do this? Well, there are actually a number of ways. Various themes are available for you to pick from depending on your personal taste and preference. Yes, you don’t have to stick to a Retro-inspired room if you always become dizzy from all the geometric patterns the minute you step into it all!

For a homey appeal, a Country interior design scheme oozes comfort and serenity with its rustic glamour. It’s a wonderful choice for people who like living in a space that’s free of all the ruffles and frills. Far from the typical primitive country cabin, this style has evolved to produce a look that’s still undoubtedly country but is sophisticatedly urban at the same time. There are different variations of this theme. You can choose from styles that are ruggedly Tuscan, French-inspired, Victorian, or the regular American Country cottage. All of these styles lend an ambience that’s relaxing in its stark rural simplicity.

If you gravitate towards a space that exudes elegance and style then the sophistication of a Modern-themed home will suit you the most. This look can be achieved by using tones that blend with the background. Basic colors such as white, black and beige are particularly needed to achieve this effect. So if you are thinking of red, orange or green, then drop that brush! Geometrical patterns star in this theme as opposed to symmetrical ones. If you are a sucker for fancy things, then this minimalist style will be something you have to gradually adapt to.

Western-style homes still connect to home-makers with their Native American influences, but other themes that are slightly more shabby and cowboy-friendly are gaining popularity too. With this type of décor, opt for warm hues of taupe, temperate shades of red and a splash of green on the walls. To polish this look, leather, stone and wooden furnishings are must-buy options. Antlers and other nature-inspired pieces accentuate this theme as well. It’s like living in the wild without the fear of having bears lurking nearby…

If you’re a beach bum who spends more time under the sun rather than indoors, then a nautical theme might probably change your mind! Now you don’t necessarily have to own a lighthouse to pull this off. All it takes is a major color change that celebrates bright white and azure blues that remind you of lazy days by the sea. Decorate using pieces from your sailing trips, exquisite shells, and even ship-inspired items! If the white-blue combo isn’t for you, then be inspired by sandy hues matched with sea green tones that bring back memories of summer!

Do you want to feel like you’re walking through a refreshing rainforest? Now you can. The tropical theme assures you of a space that comes alive with bursts of green, auburn and beige. Add to this several palm tree designs and animal prints and you’ll be surprised at the relaxing effect it radiates. Rattan furniture, along with sturdy wooden pieces, blends with this theme pretty well. Furnishings made of iron can also add to this tropical theme. Throw pillows and plush cushions in various shades of taupe, sage and white will complete your room’s overall tropical vibe. Now all you need are some piña colladas!

Asian-style homes are well-known for their elegant spaces and minimal use of décor. If you’re looking for a quiet retreat after a long day’s work, then this theme is a winner! Its completely calming effect is probably due to its clutter-free approach to style. Emphasis is placed on creating a place for relaxation and meditation. Popular hues revolve around
rich blacks, warm reds, refreshing greens and sleek browns. Scented candles in simple holders, screens, mirrors, oriental pillows and an Orchid placed in a nice vase- these are all suitable accessories for this Asian-inspired nook.

Choose a theme that’s tailored for you. Then add signature pieces that give justice to your unique personality. Remember, you can never be too “at home” in your own space – indulge!
