How To Have A Personalized Home That Reflects You?

Does your home look like it is 'your home' or does it look like an hotel room decorated by a stranger? You are making a tactical mistake while decorating your home. The best way for designing or decorating your home is to have a personalized approach to it. Your home should reflect you, your choices, your tastes, your interests or hobbies. If it doesn't do so then you are living in a place that is a like a fashion ticker, a reflection of what is 'in'.

Here are some tips to help you rethink and personalize your home according to your tastes. How To Have A Personalized Home?

• Never ever follow conventions. Conventionally your living room has to be most expensively decorated because that is the first thing tone sees. But if you are some one who works from home then you can always spend more money on making your work room plush for your comfort.

• Be a narcissist when it comes to decorating your home. Pamper yourself with the good things you want in your home. You do not have to spend your money on anything that people expect should be their in your home. If you have no requirement for a majestic bed don't buy it. Get the most comfortable recliner instead.

• You do not have to 'display' your best assets just because you have them. You must have seen the largest flat screen television sets and home theatres in people's living rooms. It is for the benefit of viewers not themselves.

• An closed room is any day more appropriate for a home theatre system because of the acoustics and also the privacy you need to enjoy such a magnificent movie watching experience. If you feel your bedroom or even your store room serves the purpose better them customize your home accordingly.

• If somebody walks into your home and cannot find an answer to the question, 'who are you' then your home is not personalized. It you are a photographer and there isn't a single photograph clicked by you in your living room then you are doing something wrong.

• You need not necessarily be an artist but you can definitely customize your home to reflect the kind of art you appreciate. If you are fan of Kurt Cobain or the Beatles then put up a poster of your heroes on the most prominent wall in your home. Do not think for a moment that it is juvenile.

• Ideally every home should reflect a bit of struggle because all good things come out of struggle. Don't make your house something that looks like a furniture store catalogue. To make your home look more like home, you have to do some things on your own. It could be a show rack that you have constructed yourself or a painting you choose after lots of looking around.
