Bedroom decoration is about personal style

Consumers are interested in keeping their homes current and comfortable, and nowhere is this ideal more important than in the bedroom according to Ann Jurgens Proprietor/Buyer for Elegant Linens.

Homeowners want bedrooms that provide a soothing atmosphere in which to restore the spirit. Creating a bedroom designed in harmony with one’s unique personality involves investigating trends in bedroom furnishings and decorating styles Jurgens says.

See www.ElegantLinens PC.com. “Elegant Linens of Park City specializes in fine bedroom furnishings imported worldwide and consult with their customers to find a style that will clearly express their individuality,” Jurgens says.

Jurgens believes determining personal style is easier when you have a clear understanding of many different decorating options and the elements that define them.

Styles to consider

Traditional: Classic lines and simple details make this bedroom calm, uncluttered and warm. Old-world style tapestries, pretty floral and plaid patterns in deep hues combine with gently curved furniture and symmetrically arranged accessories to achieve the understated elegance of this enduring decorating style.

Contemporary: The contemporary or modern bedroom is exemplified by clean lines and smooth surfaces without intricate details. Think high tech geometric patterns, lots of open space, and square lines. Bedding colors are basic and cool, with splashes of bright color.

Country/Cottage: Rustic pine or painted woods, vintage-look coverlets and antique quilts, gauzy window coverings, small floral prints and ruffled bedskirts and shams. Everything that says comfortable, cozy and natural.

Casual/Tropical chic: A relaxed and informal bedroom with an island sensibility. Earth tones combine with lush tropical themes and natural textural elements for a touch of the exotic.

Eclectic: A popular decorating style due to its easy mix of compatible elements. Furniture and textured bedding fabrics cross styles and periods, with color as the unifying link.

Jurgens continues her search in the American and European textile markets so that Elegant Linens of Park City can design a bedroom that will truly reflect her customer’s personal character and style.
