Don’t go out and start choosing furniture to match interior paint colors that are already there. Do use your starting point to coordinate interior design color, furnishings, and accents to tie together your overall motif.
Identify the use and function of the room before selecting furniture and accents. If a room will be used for multi-purposes, include elements associated with each use.
After developing your motif, pick a signature piece that identifies with your motif; such as a picture, an antique furniture piece, a rug or even pottery. And then make other purchasing decisions centered on that.
Purchase large elements first. For instance, carpets or rugs, window treatment, and living room furniture or dining room furniture. Use style, textile design, and colors of the large pieces to coordinate the rest. Consider all unifying elements; including wood tones, fabrics, and even room trim colors to coordinate your motif.
