First, start with simplifying some of the larger pieces in your home, such as your sofa.  The Jeremy Sofa from Natuzzi Italia, for example provides a clean design and low profile.

Next, Incorporate texture and strong architectural features to add visual interest. The Maze shelving unit is perfect for adding height and shape while functionally providing storage space to display some of your favourite treasures.

Replace bulky and heavy furnishings with a few bright, warm, airy pieces.  The simple lines, elegant marble and brass elements of the Felix Bar Cart, for example, can be utilized as a traditional bar cart or as a casual entry table for storing keys and mail.

Want to start smaller?  Adding bright textures with pillows or window treatments are simple, inexpensive ways to warm up any space.
