Want to know your personal interior style?
One of the best ways to create interiors with clarity and confidence is to know and understand your personal interior style. Why?
Because it simplifies decision-making, and creates all-important constraints.
That’s not to say your personal style should be prescriptive or will lock you into a “look” for the rest of your life.
Instead, it will help you get a better understanding of who you are, and what’s most important to you.
“Style is at the heart of who we are.
It’s our story in visual form:
a physical expression of how we feel.
And it’s what we choose to prioritise
in our homes and lives.”
Why style matters
In case you’re wondering whether you need to know and understand your personal style, let’s get clear on a few important factors.
If you don’t have a clear understanding of what makes you “you”, and you’re not sure of how to express that in your home, you’re more likely to circle in confusion – and this can last for years.
Not understanding your personal interior style can also become costly. You’re more likely to chop and change direction with the “look” of your home, and the objects you source.
It’s important to take the time to know and understand your style before making any design decisions that relate to your home.
Your personal interior style will become your anchor and help guide you on your journey to creating a home you love.
What is your personal interior style?
All too often your personal interior style gets confused with a thematic look, such as “Scandinavian farmhouse”. That does not describe what is unique to you. Instead, it describes a decorative style.
Remember, your personal interior style is the essence of who you are.
It is your story, your feelings and your values.
Your story is as unique as you. And when you create through the prism of your own personal experience, you create something that no one else can.
