Take advantage of these 3 favorite design tips for creating a room that's just that much better.

1. Create and Identify a Focal Point

Your room should be centered around something special. Whether it's a large piece of art or an heirloom chairside table that your grandmother passed down, it will be something that's important to you. Consider what you'd like each room to focus on and make sure the design allows space around the item so that it captures the attention you intended for it.

2. Pick Your Paint Color Last

Instead of distinguishing a paint color per room and building your fabric and finish choices around this initial decision let your inspiration lead the way. Design a room that speaks to you and your personal style. Through your option and style choices you'll create a room that speaks to you and pulling a paint color from your designed color palette will be a more fluid decision.

3. Combine Pieces You Love - Not everything has to 'match'

It's okay to step outside of the boundaries when it comes to creating a complete room. Even though that collection may offer a sofa, loveseat and chair in matching fabrics, don't worry about varying finishes and fabrics for an eclectic look that speaks to you. As long as you love the pieces you choose, it'll be a look that's just right. Mixing multiple fabrics or finishes into the right combination creates an interior designer worthy look!
