A Beginner’s Guide to Finding Your Home Style
Whether you’re moving into your first apartment or needing a home refresh, knowing how to style your home can feel confusing. What is your style? How do you know what you like? Will other people like it? Don’t fret, we are here to help with this simple introduction to finding your home style.
Your Style is the Best Style
There are countless design styles out there, which can make it difficult to settle on the aesthetic you want for your home. If you’re unsure of your own style, let’s take a moment to relax and pause. Find a comfortable spot to sit, close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Now imagine a place that makes you smile. Don’t judge your first instincts, let your mind flow where it wants. For example, many people love to take vacations to a sandy beach where they can inhale the fresh, salty air. Maybe the idea of going to a cozy winter cabin surrounded by pine trees and lakes brings you joy. Or maybe you used to take family trips to a quiet farm with home-cooked meals. Whatever makes your eyes light up is what we want to recreate with your home furnishings. Got that image in your mind? Huzzah! Let’s get started.
Modern Farmhouse Style
If you loved thinking about that quiet farm we mentioned earlier, the modern farmhouse design is not only a wonderful choice, but still remains hugely popular. From sliding barn doors to planked tops and rustic finishes, the modern farmhouse look is a clean and simple style that feels like home. Comforting and relaxing, it redefines a simpler time made for today.
An easy start to designing your home is our customer-favorite wall mantel, shown above. The planked shiplap style is clean yet invokes a feeling of barn doors and country charm. Plus, the integrated fireplace keeps your room toasty -warm-up to 1,000 square feet to be exact.
Coastal Casual Style
If you were dreaming of having a beach house as your happy place, it’s beyond easy to achieve this look for your living room. Walking in from a perfect, sun-kissed day can be the vibe in any home. Whether you live steps from the water or thousands of miles away, using weathered finishes and natural tones will create a casual, coastal feeling.
For a perfect, breezy look, we love this sideboard with a gray driftwood-inspired finish and linen panels, shown above. Versatile enough for your dining room or family room, this multifunctional piece is suitable for any room where you need extra storage.
Classic Style
For those who yearn for the winter lodge life, we think a classic design is right up your snow-covered alley. With rich finishes and refined lines, this style family offers up-to-date sophistication for traditionally inspired homes. Sophisticated yet practical, these pieces work well in living rooms, home offices, and primary bedrooms.
For timeless looks and classic lines, we love this integrated electric fireplace and TV stand. Each side cabinet has an interior, adjustable shelf with a elegant design that never goes out of style. The three-sided glass display of the panoramic electric fireplace adds even more ambiance for your watch party by offering brilliant views of realistic dancing flame effects from anywhere in the room.
