MIRRORS
Everyone knows that a mirror is an essential part of any decor, but did you know that there are places where it's not advisable to place it?
Don't place it in front of a window, as you may be bothered by too much light reflection.
Don't place it in front of a door. It's not very interesting and doesn't really enlarge the room.
Don't place 2 mirrors face to face. It creates an unsettling multi-dimensional effect!
Finalement, ce que votre miroir doit refléter, c’est une belle partie de votre décor: un vase avec des fleurs ou pampas, des jolies toiles ou tout autre élément que vous aimez!
COLOR ACCENTS
Avoid having to repaint every time you feel like a change.
Get yourself some cushions, vases, frames or artificial flowers to go and find that accent color you've been longing for.
You'll even have the opportunity to have a seasonal decor.
CUSHIONS
How many and how?
First of all, the rule of thumb is 1 to 2 more cushions than the number of seats on your sofa.
Don't forget that in decorating, odd numbers are key. So, for example, for a 3-seater sofa, we recommend 5 cushions.
The layout will depend on your decorating style. For a minimalist style, for example, use simple textures, unified colors and generally square cushions, placing 2 at each end and 1 in the center.
For a more vibrant or maximalist style, play with textures and shapes. A minimum of 5 cushions is recommended, but there's no real maximum.
