1. Rotate art. Have several pieces of framed pictures at hand. Two or three can be easily stored within the room. They can be originals, prints, photographs, even your own work. Just make sure that they all match the general look of your interior. Depending on the season or your mood, you can switch them around. Anytime you’re in the room, you can guarantee that you’ll be looking at something that really appeals to you. Unless you have yet to buy the pictures or spend on framing them, this decorating move can be done at zero cost.  In our showrooms in Tempe and Scottsdale, we always have a selection of new artwork.  Thingz specializes in contemporary art including wall art and sculpture.  Many of our art design houses are able to produce handmade art inexpensively allowing you to add art to your home withour breaking the bank.

Whether you’re moving into a new home or simply redecorating, a floor plan is essential in creating a living environment that works. Some may find the process tedious, but it actually saves you time, energy and money. You can visualize the appearance of your living room as closely as possible, hence the lower chance for mistakes when it comes to your efforts and finances

Back in the days of Frank Lloyd Wright and the other pioneers of the modern style of interior design, the movement was represented in homes by the limited blending of white and black. Mostly, it was white that dominated. The monotony of color was pierced by some black or chrome material with crisp, sharp lines to break the blinding starkness. That decorating flair was necessary, of course, as it was the element that spelled the difference between sterility and sophistication. Minimalism was the name of the game and while the concept now remains essential in the contemporary approach at modernism, the color wheel has edged its way in through the passing of the years. The color white continues to be a key component in many modern homes, but bolder colors such as lime and tangerine are now welcome, even if usually appearing in fits and bursts, frequently a singular splash of color that produces a dramatic contrast in the room’s palette.
