5 Elements of a Room

In the course of divulging my experience, and effectively communicating this experience into sound advice... I have broken down the design elements in to 5 parts:
1. LINE - This is an element that doesn't need too be implemented too literally. Lines can be implied or literal. Both can direct your eye in such a way that will help give your space a feel or aesthetic.
2. TEXTURE - This can be achieved with actual fabrics and furniture pieces OR layers of many things. You must see photos to grasp what I am talking about.
3. SHAPE - A aesthetic can be achieved just in this. If you have antiques (i.e. soft lines, plush fabrics, etc) then a homey, lavish feel can be achieved. Modern furniture is a bit more rigid and direct, which can be seen as cold, hard
4. SPACE - This ALL depends on how effectively you use the space you are given... Small are large. I have seen some amazing designs in studio apartments vs. amazing designs in mansions.
5. COLOR - This goes hand in hand with the space factor. If you have a larger room you have the flexibility of picking a darker or more dramatic color. If you have a smaller space then maybe a bright accent wall or a more neutral...
