You don't need to break the bank by buying everything you like in the interior design store. Sometimes, all it takes is picking the right pieces that will have the most impact on your space.
Here are 5 pieces that will totally transform the look of any room according to Apartment Therapy:
One really big, bold piece of art
Give your space character by choosing a bold statement that will immediately give off your sense of style. For instance, pick a giant painting that really speaks to you. Just hang it up on a blank wall where everyone can see and you're done.
The right rug
Never underestimate the power of a rug in a nice pattern and the right size. Depending on your sense of style, pick a rug that will pull the whole look of your room together by choosing a pattern that reflects some pieces in your space. Something like a Moroccan Boucherouite can transform the look of your room.
A colorful sofa
A room-anchoring piece like a stunning velvet sofa in electric blue may be all the color you need to inject a surprising element in your space. A sofa is not a cheap investment but with the right design, size, and color, it could be the only thing you need to complete the look of your room.
Some really dramatic lighting
We've said this before and we'll say it again: lighting is everything! A good piece of attention-grabbing lighting could dramatically enhance the vibe of any space. It could be pendant lighting, an elaborate chandelier, or a really modern design floor lamp - with the right design, it's one of the best things you can do for your room.
Eye-catching curtains
Putting up a window treatment is one of the ways to update your space fast. Match the window treatment design to your space and you will not only protect your home from harsh sunlight and strong winds, you will also greatly enhance the look of your room.
