Level-Up Your Interior Décor with One Awesome Piece of Furniture

It takes a certain eye to be able to put together a space that is both fabulous and functional, while also showing your unique sense of style. There’s a reason why so many people create Pinterest boards for inspiration. They want to create a space that is as individual as they are, but they also want to make sure it “works.”

Sometimes all it takes is a few small changes to take your space from drab to beautiful. When you want to jazz up a room or two, consider one of these tips for adding just the right piece of furniture. And if you love the results, you don’t have to worry whether or not it works for anyone else, as long as it works for you.

Add a Statement Piece That Makes You Smile

Adding a brightly colored piece of furniture is a great way to liven up a space without throwing off your neutral palette. Choose something with a shape or color that will make you smile every time you see it, such as this Naples Round Cocktail Table from the Barclay Butera collection.

It goes great in a space with mostly neutral, upholstered furniture. The rich leather saturated with color really makes the piece stand out, and the spool-turned legs add traditional appeal. If you prefer, you could go with a piece that is furry or a chair with a quirky shape.

Add Texture to Your Home

Just as important as adding a little color or unique shape for interest, is adding texture, especially if you are truly devoted to your neutral palette. Nothing wrong with that, but adding texture will keep it from becoming a dull monotone. You can’t beat a soft, faux furry piece, such as this Modern Bench from Universal, for creating interest in a space. Paired with the Modern Brando Bed with Tufted Headboard, you’ve got a winning combination for creating a warm, rich environment.

Add Big Statement Furniture Pieces

It’s not unusual for people to put a collection of small, delicate pieces together, especially if they have a small space. However, leggy tables, leggy chairs, and tons of knick knacks in a small space make it look cluttered and confusing.

Instead, go for a balance of large and small pieces. Include a large, roomy sofa, such as the Oyster Bay Ashton sofa by Lexington, a table with an attractive open base, such as the Oyster Bay Litchfield Cocktail table, and a few armchairs with woven texture in a modern version of a classic shape.

This example shows you how mixing furniture sizes and styles can create a look that is balanced, even in a small space. Even the smallest room needs one large statement piece, in this instance, choose a cabinet or armoire. The mixture of big and little will make your design successful, this guideline applies to accessories as well.

Once you’ve finished your room, take a quick picture of it. This lets you see the décor from a different viewpoint. It’s a great way to see where you may have gone wrong. But always remember that it’s your home, and you live in it, so make it a home you love. You can always make changes as you go until you get the look that is perfect for you.
