strikes. But, make sure you're adding color to
a relatively neutral canvas like a solid colored
couch or fl ooring—you don't want a mish
mash of color or everything will look cluttered,
rather than curated. For a luxe look, try rich
velvet fabric or embroidered, bohemian print
from a lifestyle retailer like One Colorado's
Anthropologie. Side note: Drapes are also a
great trick to make a room seem bigger; Don't
hang your curtains directly above the window,
instead, hang them closer to the ceiling to
make the room appear grander.
3. Reuse and DIY when possible.
For those looking for a more committed style
statement, a couch says a lot about your design
aesthetic and can be the focal point of a
LIVE COLORFULLY. A bright rug or fun throw pillow
can make a statement without a big fi nancial
commitment.
