Promoting Freedom for Creative Architecture
Looking to make your home feel much more luxurious? In the last few years, interior designers have begun to share their insider tips and tricks for creating a luxurious space from home. Having a luxurious and expensive-looking home is not solely reliant on the value of your home, and it is especially not dependent on the space you have available. The world is your oyster when decorating your home, but achieving a luxurious appearance is what will set your home apart from the rest. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the most favoured decor additions and swaps that are being used by interior designers. Simple and achievable, these tips will help your home become your dream sanctuary.
One of the best tips that everyone can do to make their homes look more luxurious is to replace the lighting fixtures with ones that are much more admirable. If your current lighting fixtures are simply used to create light, you are missing a great opportunity to transform the design of each room. Invest in some replacement lighting shades to cover your main lighting fixtures, and also place a small or tall lamp into each room to allow for dimmer lighting options when you want to feel cosier at night.
One thing to keep in mind when creating a luxury vibe within the home is the importance of quality over quality. Whilst there are some beautiful decor pieces you can find in homeware outlets that look more expensive than they are, usually quality is much more prevalent in the home. When shopping for new pieces for the home, invest in bespoke pieces of decor that are as expensive as they look. The key to luxury decor is knowing what value each addition of the room will add, and how much exactly it adds. Usually, if you have one exquisite piece of decor in a room accommodated by the general furniture you do not need to overdo the rest of the decor. Quality over quantity, keep this in mind!
Speaking of featured pieces, having an accent piece of art on the wall is something that all luxurious homes should have. They add sophistication and creativity to any room they are displayed in. Best placed in rooms predominately used for gatherings, consider placing a wall accent piece in the dining room or living room.
Although it might be considered a more technical skill to perfect, blending textures in your home is a great way to elevate the design presence of the space. It sounds complicated, but it is relatively easy to do. For example, if your dining room features oak wood furniture, consider playing with a soft wool rug beneath to create a texture contrast. Another example might be combining a crushed velvet sofa with some cotton pillows with embellished detailing. Textures are easy to start mixing within the home once you have the hang of it.
Vintage furniture is one of the most underestimated additions to add into the home. Vintage all together holds so much more value than the fast fashion furniture pieces that can be found everywhere. They host much more detailed designs and engravings which project elegance onto the rest of the home.
Overall, creating luxury decor in the home can be easily done without needing a whole new collection of homeware pieces. From swapping old cushion sets with new more decadent ones to adding a featured piece of artwork into each room, having a luxury home is easily achievable with the correct design.
