Home is where the heart is, so your home should always be somewhere that feels like an extension of your personality. This post will look at a few design tips that will add a personal touch to your home and create a space where you feel relaxed and comfortable. Keep reading to find out more.
Choose Meaningful Colours & Patterns
Of course, choosing the wall colour or pattern is one of the biggest interior design choices. To make your home feel more special and personal, consider incorporating meaningful colours and patterns. You can use current trends along with your own personal favourites to create a balanced look. You do not have to paint all of the walls in one colour – you could have a statement wall or find other ways to bring in colour, such as rugs and bedding.
Incorporate Personal Collections & Memorabilia
Any home that has no personal items can feel cold and hotel-like. Therefore, you should incorporate personal items into the design of each room, such as meaningful family heirlooms or souvenirs from a memorable vacation. Filling your home with personal items will make it feel like an extension of yourself, not to mention these items can be a great conversation piece!
Use Customised Furniture & Decor Items
Furniture is another key area to consider when it comes to interior design. To add a personal touch, consider custom-made pieces, DIY projects, or vintage finds (the internet is a great resource for this). Items tailored to your taste and lifestyle can add character to your home and will help you avoid having the basic furniture from the major suppliers that everyone seems to have.
Incorporate Art That Speaks to You
Obviously, artwork is a great way to add a personal touch to your home. The key is to find artwork that speaks to you, whether this is a photograph, painting, or sculpture. You want to find artwork that evokes emotions while also complementing your overall decor theme.
Add Personalised Textiles
Personalised textiles, such as monogrammed towels, bespoke cushions, or handpicked rugs, can add comfort and practicality to your space. The current trend is towards sustainable and locally sourced materials, so be sure to look for local suppliers and eco-friendly materials to minimise your impact.
Create Personalised Outdoor Spaces
You should also add personal touches to your outdoor space, such as a customised garden, patio, or balcony with plants, outdoor furniture, and decorative elements.
Showcase Personal Interests
You can also showcase personal interests to make the space feel more homely. If you are an avid Liverpool fan, for example, you could hang a framed Liverpool home kit in your living area.
This post should give you a few ideas for personalising your home and adding decorative touches that will make it feel like your own.
