In our culture of typical 4,000 and 6,000 square feet houses, arranging furnishing to facilitate coziness can be a challenge.  A good sense of visual balance is called for to make cozy, comfortable style work.  Hire professional interior decorator for advice to transform your home into a cozy, comfortable retreat.  Here are some key guidelines and tips for creating the look. 

• Dimmer switches mechanically create the effect.  Use print lampshades and lamps with voluptuously curved bases.  Rich colors absorb the lights.
•  Create close conversation area.  Move furniture pieces close together on angles and avoiding placing everything against the wall to create a feeling of intimacy.  Add footstools, side tables, and a large coffee table to make lingering in soft chairs more pleasant.  To feel more intimate, make sure furniture is situated so people won’t be more than ten feet apart.
•  Choose rich tones and a balance of patterns.  Use one or more prints, floral, geometric stripes, and plaids intersperse with solid colors.  Unite the patterns with a common color.  If you use red as your base color, all of the coordinating fabrics should incorporate red too.  Limit the number of patterns in the room to three.  Balance the distribution of the patterns throughout the room by spreading them out in at least three different areas.  Rich tones and warm color make perfect palette that liven up the space while still keeping it warm and cozy.
•  Use collection of items to add warmth and coziness to a room:  More photos on bookshelves, more pillows on the overstuffed sofa, and a collection of decorative plates and pictures on the wall.
•  Think horizontal and soft.  Many coziest pieces of furniture have full, fluffy cushions, high backs, well padded arms, and they hug the floor with ruffled or pleated skirts or have short, stocky legs.  You and your guest will feel like sinking down into them, relax, and linger awhile.
•  Paint deep cove molding in a contrasting color with the wall will keep the ceiling at a comfortable height but doesn’t overly heighten it.  Wallpaper and stencil borders are effective alternatives to molding.
• Give each room a focal point; a room with a lot of visual activity needs visual center.  Otherwise, the room can feel chaotic.

The feeling your home conveys can be one influential factor on your emotions.  You can create an environment that nurtures you by interpreting the essential principles of interior decorating such as groping furniture together and using plenty of patterns, textures, and colors. Transform your home into a warm, inviting, and snug feeling place and make sure your home takes you toward happiness and satisfaction; your home should nourish your senses and feed your soul.
