Eclectic shopping inspirations for your home

/
1 Comments
Having been a bit under the weather and being at a total loss on trying to control my decor shopping bugs, currently my life has been taken over by online shopping. The options are overwhelming so when you want to perk up your home and space with ideas it is not only about shopping in a frenzy but mastering the pattern of the method to this madness of acquiring. 
Some tips to the method of arriving at an eclectic yet harmonious space would be:
#Mix and Match but don't whip up a storm
#Avoid being random, look for a pattern
#Be daring and adventurous if you have it in you but take 3 deep breaths before you buy
#Find a balance in the scale and symmetry
#Eclectic but not eccentric you could smartly blend with the complimenting rather than the conventional contrasts.
During my hunt on the internet one comprehensive online shopping store I currently discovered, where a gamut of choices from a treasure of options can be acquired, is a young online decor store, about a couple of months old, Rain and Peacock http://www.rainandpeacock.com/. 



#Mix and Match but don't whip up a storm
Even tough it is difficult to point at a rule of achieving the right balance of Mix and Match, I would say focus on the trick of using the cushions defining your individual style sometimes even puzzling your choices. 


#Avoid being random, look for a pattern
In the attempt to break away from the run of the mill patterning it is important to find a focus. Stagerring the placement of wall decor whilst weaving  a symmetry is a wonder rule to follow.



 #Be daring and adventurous if you have it in you but take 3 deep breaths before you buy
Table top arrangements play a very important part in putting forth your willingness to experiment and yet characterize the daring in you and to tune in the correct balance. It could be experimenting with colours, shapes, arrangements and sizes or even wall art. Following the proportion of arrangement in a rhythm of 1/3 and 2/3 can do wonders.



#Find a balance in the scale and symmetry
Furniture and accessory layout, organization of light fittings create a design harmony even if the pieces are different in style, texture or period. The balance of this organization even if it is diverse in nature will speak about the personality of the user creating an all-embracing aesthetic. Watch out for the proportions of gaps and edges while you arrange. Golden rule is to spend a copious amount of energy to get the balance and symmetry right. 




#Eclectic but not eccentric you could smartly blend the complimenting rather than the conventional contrasts.
While you are shopping to buy the right lifestyle products you could add some whims and passion to go beyond the normal combinations with your tableware and your lamps. These are the X factor that add zing to your home and transform your space with an attitude of perk and quirk. Watch out and pick up the unusual ones. Combine a vibrant colour with demure compliments or shades of the same colour palette as seen in the hanging lights.



I would say every ordinary space can be converted into an extraordinary one if decorating the space is treated with the rhythm of a poem or a story to weave.  This would mean design hunting and doing some research before you shop. Home stores are good platforms to start looking and I feel really excited when I can share a comprehensive platform, like Rain and Peacock which curates distinctive and stylish pieces from across the globe, from Sydney to New York, Shanghai to Barcelona thus collaborating an online platform with world's unique cultures. If you are as passionate as me to bring in pattern, colour and texture into your home I would strongly recommend - hop onto the net, visit the stores in your city, travel far if you have to and find your perfect design symphony.
