The retro style is a great way for you to redo the decor in your home. This style is now becoming almost as popular as when it first came about in the past decades. The retro style itself is full of some unique looks, and colors that are bright and bold. With influences coming from the 50′s all the way into the 70′s. Changing your decor that is dull into this style that is full of colors and textures can make a room lively and warm.

Retro has to be one of the easiest styles to change over too. It’s a great experiment in adding accessories that are funky looking and have a fantastic design. With retro the main idea is to add in things that you would normally think are too out there in your other styles. Additions of textures are another great way to bring in the retro! Add some great area rugs, throw pillow and even change the cushions on your couch to a fantastic bold design. (via: articledirectorycentral.com)

Asian interiors are designed to bring peace, balance, and serenity to the space, which is kept simple and uncluttered. The quality and craftsmanship is exquisite. The style is merging with western style to create a unique Asian-influenced decor.

Chinese interiors are known through the wonderful carved furnishings like hand painted designs on glossy finishes, brightly colored accessories and ornaments. Red is the most used color because it is the sign of good luck. Chinese interiors are bold with their bold colors that are used to accent the room. The bright bold colors only enhance the dark wood tomes and high gloss finishes are combined for a dramatic theme. These types of rooms are also known to have large murals with cultural scenes. They are often from the characters and legends known from China’s history. (via Ezilon.com Articles)

Study Room Design – Feng Shui Tips For Study Room

Fanny — Wed, 20 May 2009 07:12:49 +0000

The study is an important room in the house. Here are some useful feng shui tips for study room design.

Start by making sure that the study room is tidy. Studying in an untidy room can be quite distracting, so make sure that the room itself is clean and calm. Don’t leave things that are not necessary for studying strewn on the desk.

Take some time to make sure that everything has a proper place to sit, and look for broad expanses of clear space. This will give you plenty of room to work on the finer points of feng shui for better studying. Look for ways to keep the study desk itself as bare as you can, because that will help with focus.

Another thing that you will need to examine is how the study station is situated. This can help you determine how you want to set up the room, so make sure that you pay attention to it. First, remember that the desk of the person who is studying should be placed so that the window is to the left of the desk, if at all possible.

If there is no window there, hang a mirror instead, which can act in much the same way. Make sure that for the best results that the desk does not have the person who is sitting at it with their back to the door, as this can affect their concentration.

To give the room an open and inviting look, take a look at adding a wind chime or a plant near the window. You’ll find that in feng shui lore that this can prevent bad luck and bad influences from coming in through the window. Using bamboo or cactus in this place can add some extra protection there and it can help keep you or whoever is studying there sharply focused. You also might find that a wind chime can be a great tool to brighten up the room and to invite in positive influences.

Free Tips For Feng Shui Decorating

Fanny — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 08:09:25 +0000

Starting with the Chinese origin, Asian home decorating is called Feng Shui which gives the idea of object positioning and space. Asian home decorating relates the house with health and wealth.

Decorating with Feng Shui principles involves the movement of energy and moving blocked areas so energy moves at a balanced pace around the entire home. Feng Shui practitioners will use all types of tools to move this energy. This could involve decorating with mirrors, water, plants, color, sound, scent, and more.

Feng Shui philosophy is based on the five elements (fire, water, metal, wood, and earth), and relies heavily upon the creative cycle. The Chinese have used feng shui not only in home interior design, but also in agriculture and urban planning. Many of China’s major cities are planned using feng shui. Successful business people like Oprah Winfrey, Rupert Murdock, and Donald Trump have reportedly used feng shui in their homes, and many offices and hotels are now employing feng shui consultants. With many wealthy people using feng shui home interior design, designers with experience in this specialty are in high demand.

Some tips for Feng Shui decorating:

When embarking on Feng shui decorating, either at home or office, avoiding floor plans with small cramped rooms, keep the design free flowing. Avoid long hallways because the energy moves too quickly down the hall. Avoid excessive overhead lighting. Choose warm full spectrum lighting instead. While decorating with Feng Shui, keep sharp corners to a minimum. Place healthy plants in a decorative manner throughout the home. Arrange couches and chairs in a way that allows people to see the door and for easy conversation. Be careful of too many knick-knacks. This can mean decorative clutter and it can quickly get out of control.

Feng shui cures help in decorating with objects and products that can balance the energy levels and redirect harmful energy. Sharp corners and angles are never a part of Feng shui decoration since they are considered a destructive influence. A simple bamboo plant that is evergreen is a good luck symbol and is popularly used in Feng shui decorations. Decorating through Feng Shui principles is not hard, just feel the space and follow a few good Feng Shui ideas to decorate a home that’s great to live in.
