My Decorating Style
Posted on August 22nd, 2008 | by dzoi |I took this test but didn’t like the first result (Funky Modern) so I tried it again. I may be funky and modern but when it comes to home decors, I prefer this.

CLASSIC COUNTRY
You take inspiration for your home from the surrounding countryside. And why not? The country cottage look has been, and continues to be, the epitome of what ‘home’ stands for: warm, welcoming, cosy and comfortable. There’s nothing at all pretentious about this style, just a love of the good, simple pleasures in life.
Living Room
Your living room brings the best of outdoors inside. The living room is usually the hub of the home, and the country look is perennially popular: it’s warm and inviting and unpretentious. In its most classic incarnation, the focal point is the fireplace, and this is certainly a style that’s all about comfort, hospitality and connecting with nature, the soul and the seasons. Glamorous accessories will spruce up the whole room, but be careful not to overdo things and jar the innate sense of harmony. Vibrant, jewel-like colours command attention while bold prints add character and personality. Make comfort the priority in your living room: it’s where you naturally go to watch TV, relax and de-stress.
Bedroom
It’s a man’s world in the master bedroom. Sleep is fundamentally important to our well being. Clean, fresh air can truly aid sleep, but so, too, does a well-made bed and the best mattress you can afford. Touch is an important issue in the bedroom, from crisp, linen sheets to wool or even sheepskin underfoot. You have quite a masculine - some might say hard - style in your bedroom, using vibrant colours to make a bold statement.
Dining Room
You’re a fabulous foodie: no occasion passes without you dressing it up in style. At home, there’s an almost theatrical sense of occasion to your dining room that’s perfect for special occasions and adds a touch of glamour to even the hastiest of meals. It’s worth restricting the most flamboyant flourishes to finishing touches and accessories only - unless entertaining on a truly grand scale. Chandeliers and ornate mirrors add a surefire touch of glamour to any mealtime, day or night, and need not cost a fortune. When it comes to entertaining, you’re incredibly sociable if frequently pushed for time.
Home Office
A little of what you fancy does you good — even when you’re working. These days, almost all of us have a home office: a desk and a chair in one corner of the living room with adjustable task lighting and adequate filing is all it takes (and might be all the space you can afford). Your innate sense of style will probably lead you to creating a work space that’s as individual as the rest of your home. Just bear in mind basic ergonomic principles, especially when choosing a desk and chair.
Kids’ Room
Let a child’s room reflect his or her personality — not yours! If you have the space for a designated playroom, great. If not, then giving your kids the biggest bedroom can be a smart move, certainly once they’re past the toddler stage: it gives them a designated space to play, enabling you to keep the rest of your home more, rather than less, how it used to be. Cheap and cheerful is ideal when it comes to most things in children’s rooms: not only do kids grow fast, they also grow out of fads and phases at an amazing rate.
Conclusion
You’re living the dream. At home, at least, the rat-race is a distant memory.
