The recent thing in wall coloring is having three various colors per room and yet concluding it with a homogeneous effect. Wall textures also are stain resistant and easy to maintain. They have high endurance and also the effect stays rich for long.

The living room wall textures in red-silver are a striking combination and need not homogeneously blend with the other wall shades. While choosing the curtains, it is essential to simplify the tone so that the texturing stands loud and clear. Texturing or contoured effect for the wall paint is an expert’s job. One can do wonders even with deft brush strokes, rollers and also vague brushes or newspaper balls. It is mind boggling to explore the shades and the mixes brought in with the magic of blending two unique colors.

Texture can be done with blotchy paint effect, sponge effect or simple kid’s bedroom specials that seem like a fairy tale picture or a water effect. Bedrooms are often a difficult choice as the range in pastel shades and texturing is amazing. Go in for lemon and pink color combination with an ultra effect in mild texturing using rollers. This stays easy on the eyes and gets more interesting light effects to maintain the harmony.

Texturing can also be used for the exterior and can start with the door edgings. Keep the tone simple and modulate the wood color of the door to create a stunning effect. The idea is to keep the entrance inviting and yet be able to do something dramatic with textures. Texturing ideas can also be done with illusions that seem surreal especially when the lighting effect comes perfectly.

This style of decoration stresses on three words: plain, simple and elegant. One of the important features of minimalism is plain surfaces. Minimalism uses monochromatic colours especially on building surfaces and other basic elements. Light colours take on the palette in this style. The furniture is simple, box like, without any detailing. This style is totally opposite to baroque. Minimalism is generally used in wide spaces as this can truly bring out the features of this style. Wide dining rooms, long galleries, and spacious halls can make this style truly spectacular. Tones and shades of brown and rich pearly whites are often used in minimalism. One of the reasons people prefer using minimalism style is because this clear spacious look gives one a relaxing and distressing ambience.

Lighting is very important in minimalism. Cool natural bright lights are the best for this design styles. A lot of lights vertically sweeping over the white walls are a good lighting method for this style. Generally, dark wooden floor complements minimalist style. Also, beige or brown sofas and related furniture looks best with white or cream walls. Make the use of colours to their minimum. Avoid detailing. You can however put up modern art paintings on the wall to make the atmosphere lively. Choose light colored cream and white based curtains. Do not use multi-colored and textured curtains or carpets. Use combinations and designs that complement each other. Simplicity is the key to minimalism.

I personally love to put up artworks on walls. It adds a great amount of charm and mystery to your home. Visitors and guests often spend a lot of time looking at the artwork in your home and somewhere paintings are also a reflection of your own self so a manifestation of that can be a great delight to the eyes as well as to the mind. However, one of the common queries is how high should you hang a piece of artwork. We also want to know about the art of arranging a collection of paintings together on the wall artistically.

Artworks are usually hung such that the centre of the picture is at the eye level. However, this rule does not apply to all pieces of artwork.  You may want to hang a painting near a sofa – what then? Should you hang it at the eye level? No. Hence the answer to this is – there is no fixed rule on hanging artwork.

Starting from the floor you can hang your painting over and above 60 inches of the wall. In case of a single painting, you can hang them at the centre of the wall and in case of more, you can think of innovative techniques to hang them. You can hang them in a triangular style or even all three in a row. What is important is that you should maintain the eye movement. The viewer should not get confused as to where he or she is supposed to look. Also, the paintings should complement each other if they are hung on the same wall.

Also, a painting is a silent talker. Everything that is around the painting relates to the piece and vice versa. Hence, you should complement the things that are around the painting. For example, if you are putting up an artwork on one wall, do not put photos on another one.

You can start with door. Many of you must have seen Harry Potter movie and if you remember then the protagonist belongs to the Gryffindor house. So what you need to do is to get a wooden plaque with words engraved upon it. Then if you wish you can hang a picture also in the portrait. Other crucial elements of the wizard theme are broom, toys, hourglass, walls and books. Broom was wonderfully used in the movie. So in conjunction with the theme, you can have a broom of any color as desired by the kid and place it in the room. Toys are very important in wizard theme. Have stuffed toys like white owl, witch dolls and pointed hat and place it in the child’s room.  

While painting the walls, try using gold stars and star stencils. Or you can also use stickers on the mirror. Wall color should be ideally dark blue. To match the wall color, use dark blue bed sheet and curtains as well. One of the best decorative items is hourglass. You can have a good looking hourglass from any shop and lace it in the kid’s bedroom. Lastly, use books in the room and your wizard theme is all set to mesmerize your precious child.

The thriving interior decoration business has given us numerous choices of colors as far as decorating is concerned. All the possible color combinations are available in the market. Here comes the problem. We have got choices of plenty and in such situation choosing one color for designing purpose can be a real tough job. So how to proceed towards this job of choosing the appropriate color? First thing first; you need to ask yourself what feel you desire in your room? It could be cozy, cool, festive, serene or energetic. Once the feel is decided, the rest of the task becomes much easier.

After the feel comes the question of pairing colors. First you need to take notice of primary and secondary colors. In brief, primary colors are ones that are basic like yellow, red or blue whereas secondary colors are the results of mixing of primary colors with each other like green, orange or purple. You can play with contrasting colors like red and green. You can also play with neutral colors like gray or brown as they go with any colors. If you still find it confusing, you can take samples from the shops. That way you will have a fair idea of how your room will appear with certain color combinations.

One can also try booklets published by paint companies that offer different color schemes. But point to be noted here is such schemes are often in monochromatic fashion. If you are looking for something extra, you can always try combination of two-three colors. Monochromatic is safe but boring. Also check, which room you are trying to decorate. For example, a child’s room can have bright color combination whereas your study room should have that cool effect. Lastly, never forget to use accessories in combination with colors.

However, we can do well with some sort of planning. The basic factors you need to consider is the purpose of fabric, the usage and who will be using what item. One must think about how to clean home decorating fabric as well. Always apply your personal preferences for colors, textures and patterns. Don’t go for what is in vogue because what is ‘in’ today may be completely out of fashion tomorrow. So use your own taste. Choose aesthetically pleasing fabric so that the looks of the home is further enhanced by it.

Think about effect and then decide on the fabric. If you seek intensity, go for tapestries or velvet but if you are more of romantic and dreamy types then organza will serve the purpose perfectly. You can always experiment with different fabrics like grey flannel. Finally, always try to choose fabric that rightly complements the decoration of the room.
