Every room needs to be decorated,
keeping three things in mind:
Harmony of all the décor ideas
that are to be used in the room to create a
perfect visual and aesthetic balance;
Its functionality and uses; and
The mood, vibrancy and energy
level of the setting that you want in the room.
The style to be followed, furniture to be kept in
the room, storage area and cabinet design in the room, furniture
and furnishings of the room and layout and seating arrangement
of the room, all are decided upon and judged according to the
above said three principles. We will take examples of a room and
analyze on its décor using the three basic principles of room décor
stated above.
Master Bedroom With A Masculine Feel
Functionalities Decided Upon:
Quiet retreat for complete relaxation and
sleep,
Comfortable reading area, and
Romantic enough for couples.
Things That Can Help You To Achieve The Above:
Window to provide natural light and proper
ventilation of air,
A pair of bedside lamps to supplement the
light to allow for reading in bed,
Bookshelves behind the headboard to keep
books and family photos.
A bench, low dresser or a hope chest at the
foot of the bed not only adds the style to the bed but also is
quite functional. Sprinkle rose petals on it for instant
romantic makeover of the bedroom or keep a laptop computer on
it to keep in touch with your office and lady love at the same
time or even drop the robe or lap blanket on it while changing
clothes.
Mood of The Room:
Masculine,
Restful,
Modern, and
Demure.
Accessories That Can Help You To Achieve The
Above:
Leather headboard in a dark solid color that
darkens the room,
Using simple solid neutral colors for the
sedate mood, and
Plain sisal carpet in a light color to
brighten up the room a little.
To achieve harmony:
Avoid all clutter and useless products in the
room.
Neutrals make the room look demure and
restful at the same time working as the unification factor,
though you can use some accents in bright colors such as red
and green for dramatic touches but subdued to the level that
they don't disrupt the harmony.
Classic furniture and contemporary furnishing
work well for the room as frills make it look feminine.
