How to Create the Perfectly Co-ordinated Room

Creating the perfectly co-ordinated space can be a challenge for some homeowners. Without starting from scratch, there are ways in which you can update a space to achieve this co-ordinated look.

This week we have been working in Somerford for a client who was looking to inject a bit of character into her new build property. Although new build properties are fresh, clean and crisp they often lack a softness that can be achieved with redecoration. This redecoration can be in the form of soft, subtle colours or beautiful wallpapers.

How to create that co-ordinated look:

There will be some larger pieces of furniture that you may be looking to keep. These are larger investments so it may not be possible or feasible to change these with your redecoration project. Therefore, it is important to find areas of the room that can be altered with ease.

These may be:

• Pillows
• Curtains
• Ornaments
• Light fixtures
• Table lamps
• Pictures
• Mirrors

It is good advice not just to stick with one colour for a room. This picture appropriately shows that a range of colours, carefully co-ordinated can create a much more interesting space. Our client had selected some beautiful patterned pillows that brought another dimension to the room.

The wallpaper application was the last part of the job. She asked us to wallpaper a number of rooms in her home and the results were incredible. The rooms were immediately softer and made the difference between a house and a home.

Time invested in finding the right wallpaper to compliment all of the other elements of the room clearly paid dividends as the end result was a light and inviting space.

Our tip: don’t worry if you make mistakes! Co-ordinating a room is not an exact science. Concentrating on smaller items means that if mistakes are made that they can be easily fixed. Call Vantage Decorators Ltd today to request a quotation on 01477 535862.
