Whether you’re a design newbie or a seasoned pro, it’s important to know how to bring new life to your favorite spaces. Consider a few of these simple tips and tricks to designing a welcoming, fresh interior space for 2014!<\/p>\n

\"design<\/a><\/p>\n

Make it Cozy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Making a space warm and inviting is critical to creating a place you (and your friends) actually want to spend time in. If you want to create a comfortable lounge area or living room, consider incorporating luxurious throws and soft, plush pillows that complement your color palette. If you\u2019re looking to warm up a bedroom, consider treating yourself to in-room amenities like a reading nook complete with a cozy chair, small table and decorative lighting.<\/p>\n

Invest in New Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking of lighting, it can change your perspective on an entire room. Why spend all that time decorating on your own or with a talented interior designer only to have guests miss beautiful details due to a dimly lit space? Bring your hard work to light with a few tasteful lighting upgrades.<\/p>\n

\"clutter\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Reduce Clutter<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clutter can truly detract from a beautifully designed space. Tuck all of your unnecessary knick-knacks, d\u00e9cor, appliances and pictures away in cabinets and other storage spaces and enjoy the view (and the extra square footage).<\/p>\n

\"plants\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Freshen up with Greenery<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing brings tasteful color to a home like indoor plants. Whether blooming or simply leafy and green, houseplants are a great way to bring color and oxygen into a house stuffy with dry winter air.<\/p>\n

\"picture\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Start Your Gallery<\/strong><\/p>\n

Invest in statement art pieces that truly represent you, your home and your general aesthetic. Who likes a bland wall? Take cues from your home\u2019s color palette and pick a new treat for guests to admire.<\/p>\n
