When you want to add those special touches that can make your home a showplace, follow the advice of decorators. Create that \u201cwow\u201d factor by accentuating a spectacular natural feature in the room like oversized windows or a fireplace, and add something unexpected like a acontrasting fabric, a touch of eye-catching color or an oversized work of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Create a Focal Point in the Room<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Decorators know that designing a room around a focal point adds immediate interest and defines the character of the room. A free-standing fireplace, an elaborate bar or a curio cabinet with interior lighting to highlight a collection can become the focal point and add high visual impact. A game table in the entertainment space can become a focal point, just as an executive desk is the attention-grabber in a home office and a china cabinet commands attention in a dining room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Go Big<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose large pieces of artwork and accessories that add pizzazz to the room, especially if your home has a more contemporary feeling. Edgy contemporary, mid-century modern, Hollywood glam and coastal style furniture do well with large scale paintings, massive area rugs, huge lighting fixtures and oversized pieces of sculpture. Keep in mind that one large, important piece is infinitely better than several smaller pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
