We are changing up our episode style slightly for season two. Each month I will bring you a guest expert episode but also, we will have a shorter focus burst episode, where I will bring you topics and insights on how you design your space with ease.

 

When I speak with friends and family or clients, I find that so many are unsure about what their style is, people get confused if what they like and don't like doesn't fit into one style box.

 

I want to guide you to find your own interior style, with a story. Understanding your story will allow you to have design your space more simply. It will also enable you to bring together pieces that you already own with new purchases to ensure there is cohesiveness and harmony within your space. 

 

Understanding and really delving deep into what you like and what you don’t like, what fits with your lifestyle, and what marries well with the style of home that you will be living in and the surroundings, will really help stop you being sucked into different trends. For most people, when they are thinking about renovation or making some changes in their home they jump head first into Pinterest and start pinning everything that they love the look of. And whilst this can be helpful, it can also mean that we start trying to recreate somebody else's look or style. And more often than not this look that you are trying to recreate has been created by an interior designer with large budgets and possibly years of experience. So it can be unrealistic.

 

In this episode, I am going to guide you through what you need to understand to create that story, your narrative. Following these steps will make sure that you don't fall down that Pinterest rabbit hole, it will mean that you will be able to design your full home or even a space within your home with complete ease and confidence, armed with the knowledge and understanding of what works for you, your family and your lifestyle.

 

I hope you really enjoy this episode, it is my goal to make design a little less daunting or challenging.
