Decorating a home requires a lot of thought and if it is made according to a certain theme it will be easier to redecorate when you want to change the theme at a later date. While people follow either a single colour scheme or furniture design style to give their homes a particular theme like colonial, rustic or retro with other décor items. Themed homes need not always be an expensive affair, if homeowners have a clear plan about the look that they want to achieve in every room with colors, furnishings and furniture.  Though wall paint and flooring play a major role in deciding the theme of a house’s interiors, decorative items, window treatments and other décor also create a huge impact and can influence the theme of a house. While fairy tale and cartoon movie themes for children’s nurseries are common people can easily incorporate themes like vintage and country with plaid cushions and rustic furnishings.

Pick your favorite colour

The decorator has used this colour in the bedroom to bring peaceful and harmonious sleep to the young teen that owns this room. As the room is tiny and rectangular the ordinary colours would make it look even smaller so bright neon like tone enhances its angles and layout. The large magenta poster in headrest area with black outline enhances the white bedspread in partnership with lighter magenta coverlet.

The walls, door and window are in black to provide a stable background to the bright magenta roof and floor which give a nightclub like atmosphere to the room. Even the small study alcove in the corner has been wall papered in magenta with monochrome designs to retain the color symmetry. Small colorful floating shelves on the wall appear like colorful pieces of a puzzle against the wall background.

Pick your favorite movie and decorate accordingly

Pick a concept: chill

Every home should have a relaxation zone where all members can chill out the way they like without worrying about furniture or behavior. While for most people the best place to chill out is their bedroom where no one is likely to disturb or drop in without invitation. When a family wants chill out then the ideal place is a garden or study where adults can sit down and talk without children dropping into the area.  During winter an indoor chill out area is the best option and owners here have created one in the loft area be clearing out the junk and converting an entire wall into home library.

For an ideal chill out atmosphere the entire rear wall has been spray painted with graffiti while wooden shelves with family’s collection of books cover one wall. Wide grey sofa with comfortable cushions takes up one corner of the room that are conducive to lazing around with a book or just sitting together and chatting up.
