Our homes are more than just places we live; they are a reflection of who we are. They’re where we unwind, entertain, and create memories. But sometimes, our living and sleeping spaces can feel generic or uninspired. Therefore, this is where the power of purposeful styling comes in.
Bravely Jump Beyond Trends
Gone are the days of following fleeting trends to decorate your home. Purposeful styling is about creating spaces that speak to your unique personality, interests, and lifestyle. Basically, it’s about curating a collection of pieces that resonate with you and evoke a sense of style and joy.
Suggestions on Finding Your Design Voice
Self-discovery: start by reflecting on your personal style. What colours, textures, and patterns draw you in? Are you drawn to a minimalist aesthetic or a more eclectic mix? Do you like a more structured look or a relaxed, more casual look? Perhaps you like both, therefore look for pieces and bedding to invest in that can offer you either look depending on how you feel!
Additionally, creating a mood board with images, colours, and textures that inspire you is a great starting point. Refer to our June 2024 suki speak article on creating a mood board – “unlock your dream space”.
Embrace what you love: think about the things that bring you joy and incorporate them into your decor. Surround yourself with things that make you smile.

Functionality matters: while aesthetics are important, your home should also be functional. Consider your lifestyle and how you use each space. Your décor styling pieces can not only look amazing, but they can also offer you the ability to use them practically. – eg; waterproof vases, decorative bowls and platters that can also be used for entertaining, to serve food, to hold flowers or to display special items.
Bringing it All Together
Generally, purposeful styling can take time. It’s about constantly evolving your spaces to reflect your growth and changing tastes. Don’t be afraid to experiment, mix and match, and most importantly, enjoy the journey!
Your living and sleeping spaces can be sanctuaries that reflect your unique personality and make you feel so good being in them. Embrace the power of purposeful styling and create spaces that truly feel like you and that nurtures your happiness at home. Unleash your inner designer and start creating spaces you love!
