- Finding an inspiration image and using a Pinterest board can help narrow down and define your personal style when designing your space. - Using bold colors and large patterns can make a transitional style more exciting and prevent it from feeling dull or boring. - For a cohesive look in large spaces, it's best to use the same flooring throughout rather than mixing different types, and considering the existing architectural elements like stained wood ceilings can guide your choice.
