How to add personality to your home décor

Interior décor
 An introvert would need private spaces like a reading nook

A well-designed space should reflect the homeowners’ personality and way of living.

We have different personalities and a different outlook on life, ergo we cannot have the same outlook on life. The way a sanguine looks at life is different from the way a melancholic does.

An introvert has different daily living needs from an extrovert. This goes to explain why a cookie-cutter approach cannot work for all spaces.

Intuitive design is the art of designing a space that embodies your personality, lifestyle and practical needs for the space.

You would not wear some clothes because they do not suit your personality so why do that for your home?

 Extroverts need large spaces for entertaining

Floor plan

The first step to designing intuitively is to study the layout of the room you are working with.

If you are a bubbly person you will decorate with an aim at entertainment and conversation spaces. If you are a reserved person however you will need a layout that has private areas, for instance, a meditation spot or a reading nook.

Choose your design style

Next step is to pick a design style that resonates with your individuality.

It could be a pompous style like Hollywood regency or art deco, it could also be a laid back style like shabby chic or farmhouse style.

Your unique style will guide the choice in furniture, drapery and accents.

 Your home decor should reflect your personal style

Personality 

Your personality is unique. Allowing your space to be a reflection of who you are leads to a space that you are happy to be in. Accent pieces like quotes and typography allow you to show your wordy side if you are a writer. Collect and tastefully display the things you love around your home. Do you always consider decorating for your personality?
