Have you mastered the idea of Pattern and Texture? If so, then you're ready to move on to a more detailed discussion - Choosing Your Style. Remember in PART 1 - Where Do I Start?, where you're asked to identify what you're like? This is very important in finding out the style that fits you comfortably and confidently, as personality and style is very much related to each other. Take note that what's trendy may not be suitable for your personality. So, make sure you do not cheat just to be 'accepted' by the masses, okay? Before deciding on which style to pick, check out whether it is practical for your daily lifestyle and whether you can afford it. There is no point in dreaming big and going over the edge, if it would later cause you headache and even worse, it could not even be realized. Read this up. Done? Great! Now, let's choose the style which fits your personality well. We have identified six major styles to choose from, which are:
1. New-age Modern
2. High-street Chic

What would life be without Pattern? Could you imagine a world full of colors but not having a single pattern? Can we agree that pattern add variety to an otherwise flat plain world, or in the scope of our discussion, room?
We've just recently uploaded an article on how you could inject pattern into your room, by mixing and matching. In general, small patterns in soft, light and muted colors are easy to mix and match. Large patterns in bright colors however, have bigger impact. Check out the detailed suggestions on pattern.
Now, is pattern enough? Have we forgotten about Texture? Texture gives definition and life to spaces and colors in a room. Grouping fabrics, furnitures or even art displays of similar colors but varying in textures, will produce a significant impact. Generally, rougher texture emphasize character. Sleeky, shiny texture adds sophistication. Find out how to incorporate texture into your room.
If you have any other great ideas that we have not covered, do share them in the comment section below. In the mean time, enjoy experimenting with pattern and texture!
Take care.
