6 Ways to Balance Style and Comfort in Your Home

Achieving a proper blend of an electrifying style and a relaxing environment can be a little bit challenging, even some of the most renowned interior design companies struggle with it.

After a long stressful day, your “home” is the sanctuary where you can unwind from the daily hectic routine of life. We all desire our senses to be aesthetically pleased in the best possible manner, especially when one is thinking of designing the place we live in. Achieving a proper blend of an electrifying style and a relaxing environment can be a little bit challenging, even some of the most renowned interior design companies struggle with it. However, it will be an exaggerated notion to call it as an “impossible task to accomplish!”

1. Required comfort should be irreplaceable

You would not really care how luxurious, modern, or cool a sofa, bed, or flooring looks unless you don’t find it relaxing and enjoyable to sit, sleep, or walk over it for a long time. While shopping for such items of your house, it is highly recommended to keep comfort on top of all your priorities. Today, there is a massive market of furniture and it is not a challenge to find ultra posh, yet snug and affordable furniture.

2. Design according to your aesthetic sense

Beauty and ugliness are two essential components of our lives. Everyone has their own taste, which itself is being judged subjectively and universally. It is of immense importance for anyone to attain the feel of contentment and pleasure after designing their living space. What defines a perfectly interior designed room or house could merely be an act of filling out space with voguish decorations and furniture for you. Therefore, it will be sensible to invest your money on what you want and not what others want. At the end of the day, you are the one staying there and not others.

3. Think before you plan to decorate

Sit in your bedroom, sitting area, washroom, and balcony one by one each day. Look around deliberately; take the feel of every corner, think of how you would want the space to be filled, which colors would give you tranquility, if you would like to keep a certain nook of your home looking spacious or would you rather prefer stuffing it with huge decors. Plan it all, from lighting to colorful walls. You should be confident on how you would want the final picture in your mind to become a reality. Remember, even if you are hiring an interior decorator for designing your place, they will only be giving an image to your thoughts in a professional manner.

4. Keep tradition parallel to modernization

Although modernization is rendered as transition from traditional to a modern setup, during renovating or decorating your house for style and comfort, a blend of both modern and traditional style (termed as transitional styling) is considered as one of the secrets behind a warm, cozy, and well furbished home. To incorporate a touch of both, go for wooden interior with vintage yet trendy mixing elements and light tan matted color selections.

5. Nature, a health promoter and beauty enhancer

How can one forget to mention “nature” while discussing style and comfort together? We know nature plays a vital role in human health and well-being. Keeping ornamental plants in the home has a very soothing influence on the human mind and vision. Also, greenery in general brings positive energy, character, and beauty to any space. Plants give a refreshing retro look and feel to the home. There is a wide variety of houseplants and thousands of ideas for displaying them in a grand manner. Visit any local nursery to bring in some alluring houseplants and consider cascading them like the string of pearls or as side-table chic pots. Do not worry if you don’t have a green thumb because many of the plants ask for almost no care at all.

6. Soft fabric is a must

Sometimes you are going to spend the entire day in your lounge doing nothing but just sitting. Make sure you go for the right kind of mushy, flurry, soft, and comfy fabric for your sofa and cushions. Having cotton slipcovers over the pillows, ottoman, and throws (rather than the thick structured leathery upholstery) will make you feel pampered like a baby, which we all become at one point or the other in our homes. Similarly, you can go for a very soft, stylish, and stripped rug on the floor. This will not only give a burst of grandeur to your room, but will also feel as if you are walking on the very clouds themselves.
