I am trying to decide on a style for my bedroom. I have a husband so it can't be too girlie for his sake (no Shabby chic). I have narrowed it down to a few: French Country, Caribbean/Tropical or Japanese.What do you guys think? Any ideas are welcome.
Answer
I would pick Country French for a few reasons. One, no matter what direction you pick later your CF pieces will most likely work.
Two, this classic and warm style is easy to put together on a budget and is equally appealing to men and women. There are so excellent catalogs to look at for CF--try Ballards, Provence and even Target has Toile accessories to complete your picture.
The other advantage is slightly "distressed" pieces from unlikely sources can easily work, so the style is a budget friendly one.
Japanese is trendy but could be over soon. Also, unless you love to live minimally that style is super hard to maintain as clean uncluttered lines are at the heart of it.
Tropical is a little too weekend at Disney after a while, although short term it could be fun.
CF will be a long term look you can add to down the road, mix up, change up and live with. Good luck with your project--and don't forget to ask your husband's opinion once and a while (even if you end up not listening).

What is important to you? This bedroom is your private space, and it should reflect who you are. Men tend to be very minimalist and conservative in their decor, which is fine. But a large picture on one wall can add lots of interest to the room. You can find these at import stores as well as hobby stores. Or, you could make a grouping of smaller pictures with a common theme. This is especially good if you take your own photographs, because the group can be a point of conversation. Keep the photos together though, because this gives them importance.
Sounds like you need furnitureâ a dresser, or chest of drawers at least. It does not matter if the styles do not match. You can make them work together by choosing a common colorâ all light or all dark wood. A common color can also make disparate fabrics work together. An upholstered chair with the same coloring as the bedding and curtains, even if one fabric is a print while the other fabric is solid, plaid or striped. The different pattern will give interest to the room. Basically, design is about giving the eye places to focus on briefly while providing an overall continuity.
