Pinterest Fuel: Neutral Rooms

Neutral rooms when well designed are never boring. And how do you define a well designed neutral room? It’s not about only what you see, but actually, how you feel about the room.

Every room in each house has a feeling and every feeling comes from its decor and that’s why sometimes we enter spaces that somehow makes us feel reenergized, happy and some other rooms can make us feel uncomfortable, unease. Every color, texture and pattern applied to each space we see and live at communicates with us and can affect our mood. Choosing these elements carefully, according to your senses can make of your house a great place to be or a place you simply can’t stand living at.

Whenever I have a new client I try to really get to know them. I want to feel their energy, their expectations and not only how they live in that space, but how they want to live in it. My job is to develop a plan to make them feel completely comfortable and happy with the elements encountered in their homes, but most importantly, I want them to finally feel at home, at the place they work hard to have and deserve to feel it belongs to them.

Neutral rooms often has something peaceful about them. Usually because the colors chosen works cohesively with each other, bringing harmony and balance into the space.

The room we’ll see today are all very calming and inspirational. I believe that even people that are fans of vibrant colors can enjoy these rooms because they feel complete and lined. There’s nothing cold about these designs and I hope you enjoy them.

I just want to drop a quick note and thank all of you for being here. I noticed I have many new readers coming back every day and I want to welcome you all. I know that a blog, a website can be a little too cold, too “mechanical” sometimes, but I hope you, the new readers and all of my amazing faithful readers, always feel the warmth I try to share through my words and in the quality of my posts. If you know very little about me, I have three children, a husband that helps with everything and that’s why I have time to work as an interior designer and write this blog. I hope all of you can have fun and dream with the beautiful spaces I find for us here. 

Have a very Blessed day!

    I love the Serenity bedroom photo. I have been looking for the fabric on the two wingback chairs. Do you have any information on that fabric by any chance?
