Which Is Better - Homes Based On a Single Theme or the Ones Based On Mixed Multiple Themes

by Kaliska Davis SEO The age old battle of the interior design world between single themed designs and mixed theme designs continues. Here are a few pros and cons that will help you make up your mind for your home.

The business of interior design is quite a tricky one. There are so many factors that determine that outcome of a particular plan. A designer needs to be aware of the tastes of the client, the functionality of the design and the ambiance that the final design creates. There are many options these days for designers to try out. With so many styles of interior design, one can either choose a uniform theme for the entire house or make a design that incorporates various styles under one roof. They are both great plans and have their own set of pros and cons that we will unfold through this article.

Firstly, let us look at a single theme for a home interior design. This is a superb option when you are looking to decorate a new and fresh space. It gives you clarity of thought and allows you to narrow down on options when you are purchasing accessories for the space.  Also, it is visually soothing as there are not many elements that may, sometimes, even clash with each other. That way, your budget becomes clearer, too. Single theme also means that you are playing safe by adhering to your client’s taste and there are very few chances of going wrong.

On the flip side, a single theme is too restricting in design. For example, your home theme is always at the back of your mind when you buy souvenirs or home décor stuff during travels. It comes across as a boring plan with not much variety. Most importantly, you can only do so much with a single theme and not go beyond with what you can achieve in the given space. The best option if you want to have a unifying single theme for your home is to give specific rooms and areas in your house a single theme instead of binding the whole house in it.

Mixing themes is a great way to let your creative juices flow. A mixed theme not only shows your understanding of various interior design themes but also gives the space variety, which also creates a very welcoming quality of the space. This allows different people who come into your home to appreciate what has been done with the space. If you are looking for interesting interiors, you must opt for a mixed theme for your interior design. Mixing the theme within a certain space or allotting specific themes to sections in your home are two options that you can use.

When you are mixing themes, the only thing you need to make sure is that the space does not come across as cluttered and confusing. Segregation of these themes is extremely important. When you are mixing traditional and modern, for example, you cannot just throw in stuff that represents either style. Instead you need to either keep the furniture modern and upholstery traditional or vice versa or have a single overall theme and throw in accessories in a contrasting theme. You need to achieve a sense of harmony between the different themes that you choose so that your space is visually appealing and functional at the same time.
