If your dwelling or house does not look totally fabulous, perhaps you ought to read the following advice on giving your space a makeover that will change your life.

Your style.
Home stylists support the theory that you must make the home a mirrored image of who you are. In order to find the style that best corresponds to your taste, look through magazines and house catalogs, then tear out the pictures that you like the most. When you've got a pile of pages, look for a common theme. For example, you might realize that the pictures you’ve been saving illustrates rooms which have coloured walls or lots of patterns or similar artwork. Another way to gain insight to your style would be to identify your most beloved object. It actually represents things that you are passionate about. So, if your prized possession is a blanket you purchased last summer from Mexico, you could be into eye-pleasing things and comfort. Try to incorporate those elements to your own home.

Your colour scheme.
For your house to release a balanced and welcoming atmosphere, each room should contain two base colors and an accent colour, and their proportions need to be roughly 60 percent for the key base colour, 30 percent for the 2nd, and 10 percent for your accent one. According to the experts it is best if you don’t have all three colors in equal quantities, as the eye does not like that. Throw pillows, vases, lamp shades and wall hangings can add that 10 percent accent colour.

Your textures.
If the primary color scheme of your property is neutral, mixing up textures you prefer is extremely important, since your home can look flat without an interplay between hard and soft, shiny and matte. Thus, rugs and throws should be combined with sleek surfaces, like a lacquer table.

Your light.
Every room needs at least three light sources and arranged in any triangle formation to ensure that the area in the center of the room is illuminated by this triangle light effect. In truth, this small change can make a huge difference to the overall outcome.

Your size and shape.
If a room has too many towering items or too many short, squat ones, it is going to look awful. Also, if it is dominated by square pieces and sharp edges, they need to be offset by some round or curvy lines. One easy way to solve both these imbalances without buying any new furniture is to work using your wall hangings. For example, if you want your sofa or table which is against the wall to appear taller, consider hanging directly above it a large painting or photograph. Also, if you have too many angular elements in a space, consider hanging a round or oval mirror on the wall.
