Our 3 Steps to Finding Your Personal Design Style & Why it Matters in Your Home
Interiors serve as a canvas upon which inhabitants paint their stories, preferences, and memories. With each choice of color, pattern, and decor, a home becomes a reflection of its occupants' personalities and experiences, celebrating their individuality. In guiding clients, I prioritize understanding their narratives, aspirations, and unique style sensibilities, fostering an environment where they can explore and discover design elements that resonate with their personal journey, ensuring their home becomes a true reflection of who they are.
Step #1: Find Imagery that Feels Intuitive
When assisting clients in gathering inspiration from magazines or online sources, I encourage them to pin or clip images freely, focusing solely on what visually appeals to them without overthinking. I suggest exploring various styles, room designs, and color palettes to broaden their horizons and uncover unexpected preferences. By casting a wide net and allowing exploration without preconceived notions, clients can discover patterns and themes that genuinely resonate with their tastes and preferences.
Step #2: Determine the Common Denominator
After collecting a variety of images, I work with clients to identify recurring themes and elements. This involves looking for common colors, patterns, textures, and styles that appear across their selections. By pinpointing these common denominators, we can better understand what truly resonates with their aesthetic preferences. This step helps to clarify their unique style and provides a strong foundation for creating a cohesive design concept.
Step #3: Begin a Carefully Curated Concept Board
Once clients have amassed a collection of inspirational images, I facilitate a collaborative discussion to distill the overarching themes and elements they're drawn to. By identifying common threads such as color schemes, textures, or stylistic features, we establish a cohesive design direction that aligns with their vision and lifestyle. Prioritizing communication and flexibility allows us to refine and tailor the concept before proceeding to finalize finish and furnishing selections, ensuring every detail harmonizes seamlessly within the space.
Start exploring ideas for your space with curiosity and enthusiasm, knowing that I'll be here to guide and support you when it's time to bring your vision to life. With our collaborative effort, you'll experience a sense of fulfillment and delight as your space transforms into a reflection of your unique style and personality.
