If your interior style is a reflection of your personality, what does your home say about you? The team at OZ Design Furniture explains.
Like the clothes we wear, the furniture and colour choices in our homes say a lot about our personalities and how we choose to live.
If you find your home is filled with warm tones of yellows, oranges, pinks and peaches, it ma be a reflection of your cheerful and welcoming personality. These shades create a nurturing and intimate atmosphere that will greet guests when they enter your home.
Soft, cool hues of blues, lavenders and greens suggests your abode as your oasis. These colours are often associated with vast ocean views, open fields and clear skies that will transport you to a more soothing and tranquil mindset. To avoid an overly chilly feel, add touches of brown and orange using furniture and fixtures.
Confident, outgoing and creative characters often lean towards striking jewel tones. Sapphire, emerald, ruby and topaz generate an inspiring space for visitors. Achieve this sense of boldness through colour blocking your walls or a few cushions; to lessen the intensity, incorporate neutrals into the area.
If you think ‘neutrals’ means lacklustre, think again – sticking to neutrals tones of greys, beiges, ivories, and browns can create a sleek, crisp look. Enhance your home through different and unusual textures while maintaining the classic look you desire. Or step out of your comfort zone and insert hints of bold colour to bring the space to life.
Seasons can also play a part in the interior choices we make. This season rattan textures, clean lines and subtle tones, which are all part of OZ Design’s Winter collection of furniture and homewares, hint at the cooler weather and our desire to escape the elements and rug up inside.
While the functionality of these pieces is important – like statement timber dining pieces and buffets that allow you to entertain with ease and sofas that provide a seat for all to sink into – the colour choices are also key in creating a space that feels like home.
Bright furniture, while adding a trendy and bold statement in your home, suggests that the individual welcomes change with open arms. The expert team at OZ Design Furniture suggest injecting pops of colour by layering rugs, wall art and cushions; select a colourway that reflects who you are and create a space filled with décor you love.
