Leonardo Da Vinci once said, Simplicity is the eventual sophistication and when it comes to interior design this can often by the best route to take if you don’t trust your own design instincts. There is a danger however, that your concern will blend into every other Magnolia drenched, copy copy home that we see cloned on every street in Britain today. Why do we practice such safe design? Is it because we suffer from a lack of imagination, or are home owners up and down the realty just not brave enough to experiment? Maybe in this arduous economic climate we cannot risk straying from that safe colouration palette of toiletries and white?

I say, why create a ‘blank canvas’ (just in case you move home), for someone else to put his or her stamp on. Look for rousing everywhere and don’t fear your own style. There are several ways in which you can experiment without breaking the bank and below are a few ideas and tips, which could inspire you to create your own unique groove. Firstly, do a little research. Websites such as housetohome have a fantastic gallery of pictures and suppliers that can inspire you and are less likely to be institute in the concern next door.

Create a mood board. Collect images, colouration swabs and fabric samples in order to focus your ideas and inspire you. This way you will be able to see which colours and styles go together and it will also help you commit to only buying what you need. Steer clear of the plain and create simple elegance by choosing a simple colouration palette but also experimenting with different textures of makeup and fabrics. B&Q have a makeup colouration mixing service, which can match any of your favourite items.
