Decorating a room is a gratifying chore. It may be because we’re moving into a new house or because we’re doing up one of the rooms in our household. It’s however always fun and exciting to give free rein to our imagination and creativity and breathe fresh air into our home.
The budget we count on to do the refurbishment is key but so are our imagination and enthusiasm. It’s also important to be clear about what we want as well as to think about what best will fit with our way of being and our well-being.
Choosing the colours of our walls, the materials for the furniture and the right ornamental objects is fundamental. And to feel that the house where we live is really our household, we must be aware of what makes us feel good and introduce it into the interior design we’re going to choose. Here you are some ideas so that your choice may be in accordance with your star sign or, to put it in other words, with the tastes and preferences that make up the essence of your personality.
The most steady, calm and proportionate signs
We may divide star signs into two completely disparate styles when it comes to doing up a room. Though with own and individual features in each sign, the first group –the one that belongs to Sagittarius, Capricorn, Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Libra and Scorpio— looks for balance and simplicity when it comes to decorating.
Calmness, balance, and neutrality in form and colour
Sagittarius loves the memories from their trips and experiences and the creation of a warm atmosphere by playing with light. Capricorn is also classical and solid with their furniture: they prioritise simplicity and quality when it comes to choosing. Taurus likes everything orderly, elegant and that the whole conveys calmness, which Cancer also appreciates. Cancer, moreover, has an eye for detail and fills their rooms with personal, vintage belongings and adds some romanticism to their bedroom.
Virgo likes neutral hues, warm colours and minimalist furniture whereas Libra likes polyfunctional spaces where a good meal with friends can take place. Finally, Scorpio goes for relaxing textures and places great value om curtains, cushions and other textile accessories.
The most festive, colourful and risky signs when it comes to decorating
At the other end, we find Leo, Aries, Gemini, Aquarius and Pisces. Pisces loves dreaming about their room not least about pictures, fabrics and above all a king-size comfortable bed. Leo is elegant but likes garish patterns, intense colours and the brightness and might of gold.
Gemini, for their part, loves redecorating, rearranging furniture and reinventing every space, whereas Aries, also impulsive and passionate, wants to feel the energy when getting into their room. Reds, intense blues or purple are their favourite colours.
According to fortune telling, the best decoration for your room can vary depending on your star sign. For example, Aries, the sign of the ram, would benefit from bold and fiery colours like red and orange to match their energetic and ambitious nature. Taurus, the sign of the bull, would prefer more luxurious and comfortable decor, such as plush textures and soothing colours like green and pink. Gemini, the sign of the twins, would appreciate a versatile and changeable space with decor that can easily be moved around, while Cancer, the sign of the crab, would feel more at home in a cosy and nurturing environment with sentimental and comforting decor.
Finally, Aquarius is eager to break the rules, update their decorating and have a style of their own. Paintings, lamps, carpets…everything goes to surprise and gives full rein to their originality.
