PREPARE YOUR VOICE AND: GET YOURSELF A LIVING ROOM INTERIOR DESIGN STYLE W/SOME DANCE MOVES
Amy Winehouse was one of the greatest artists to ever step foot on Earth and we were extremely lucky to watch her grow and become the star she was. Everything on her was big and provocative: her voice, her hair, her behavior and even the bold lyrics of her songs. She definitely revolutionized the music world by saying loud and clear “They tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no”.
Now, how can we help your friend go from “living room interior design style out-dated” to the Amy Winehouse of interior design ideas? Easy, just add a little Amy touch in his living room and I promise we’ll be fine!
First topic of the intervention: Open spaced houses are the IT thing of the moment! Yes that’s right, if in the past the kitchen belong to the maids, nowadays, being able to actually see your kitchen is the hottest interior design trends of all!
I bet your friend still has that outdated kitchen, with patterned tiles and a horrifying gas oven!
First move: Demolish that wall down and build a open space, and to add some luxury to the new place, there are plenty of lighting options to go with. Choose a loud, flashy but sophisticated one, just like the one below!
Your friends’ living room will be fancier than your, that I can assure you!
Second topic of the intervention: Redecoration never means throwing things away! Let’s see, your friend has some outdated curtains with a floral pattern and perhaps some moth holes in it? No need to worry, you can work with that!
Second move: One of the most wanted lighting trends of 2017 is mid-century style, which can easily be obtain if you just choose the right decoration items.
My personal advice? Create a living room corner using your friends outdated curtains and an old side table and mix it up with a floor lamp and some neon on the walls. Instead of looking old fashionable, your friend’s living room corner will look effortless chic and mid-century cool!
Third topic of the intervention: Traditional wooden Square floor is not a nightmare!
You probably remember seeing that typical wooden floor in your parent’s house, just like the one below, but in your memories it looked a look darker, sadder and let’s be honest, terrible! There is a way to make your friend’s old floor into a super chic accessory that will hardly be noticed.
Third move: To turn the outdated floor into a fashionable accessory, all you need to to is basically, style it up! Add a white rug with a texture and a sideboard to catch people’s attention and deviate it from the floor!
Forth topic of the intervention: Last topic to be discussed in order to save your friend from the misery he’s been living in: Dark environments may look luxurious but they might also look creepy!
It’s true, you might believe that a dark living room is the easiest way to go chic, but if you’re not careful, you can go from luxury to scary in nano seconds, and we definitely don’t want your friend’s living room to be creepy, do we?
Forth move: The smartest way to avoid giving your friend a weird living room, where people fell uncomfortable is by adding some color decor items that match the style of the living room. How? Just add a stunning table lamp in a bold color, like the blue one below to your dining table, and your friend’s coffee will taste even better!
So just follow our 4 moves and I assure you’ll be the light in the dark for your friend!
