All Just about Interior DesignThe art of house decoration

If you would-be have your rooms engrossing as well as beautiful, do them say something, give them a spinal column by keeping all
ornamentation subservient to line.
Before you buy anything, try to imagine how you want each room to look
when completed; get the image well in your mind, as a painter would;
think out the main features, for the details all depend upon these and
will quickly suggest themselves. This is, in the long run, the
quickest and the most economical know-how
of furnishing.
There is a theory that no room can be created all at once, that it
must grow gradually. In a sense this is a fact, so far as it refers to
the amateur. The professional is always occupied with creating and
recreating rooms and can instantly summon to mind complete schemes of
decoration. The amateur can as well discover to mentally furnish rooms. It
is a fascinating diversion once
one gets the endowment of it.
Beautiful things can be obtained anyplace
and for the minimum price,
if one has a feeling for line and colour, or for either. If the lover
of the beautiful was not born with this art instinct, it may be
quickly acquired. A decorator creates or rearranges one room; the
owner makes the next, alone, or with assistance, and in a season or two
has spread his or her own wings and worked out legitimate schemes,
teeming with individuality. One observes, is pleased with results and
asks oneself why. This is the birth of nice taste.
Treat your rooms like "still life," see to it that each group, such as
a table, sofa, and one or two chairs do a "composition," suggesting
comfort as well as beauty. Ne'er
have an isolated chair, unless it is
placed against the wall, as part of the nonfunctional scheme.
