Every home is different because it reflects the tastes, desires and lifestyle of the people living in it. No matter what the type of furniture or decor, there are certain elements that beautiful homes have in common. By incorporating some — or all — of these components you can create a beautiful living space of your own.

A Pleasing Color Palette
It doesn’t matter what kind of furniture is in a home with if the color palette is not pleasing. Choose bold, bright, neutral or serene, just make sure the colors are complementary. Give thought to the walls, decor, flooring or floor coverings, and furnishings and accessories.

An Impeccably Organized Closet
Clutter is never beautiful, especially if its in your closet. Sorting, organizing and storing clothing and accessories is much easier with a beautiful and well designed closet. The old adage of “everything in its place and a place for everything” holds true. Installing a custom closet can make getting dressed not only much easier, but more efficient as well as enjoyable

Distinctive Dining Chairs
Beautiful homes express the individuality of their occupants with stylish pieces, and dining chairs are an easy way to make a statement without being over the top. All dinner guests will be using these dining chairs and a special design can make even the most basic table more interesting. If it’s not possible to get a new dining table, just change out the chairs from something more dramatic.
Luxurious Throws
Even modern or rustic decor can benefit from a touch of softness. Most gorgeous homes feature at least a couple of cuddly throws tossed across a sofa, bench or bed. Opting for quilts, blankets, furs or other textiles will depend upon the style of the space, but regardless, they should feel special or opulent

Mood Lighting

Of course a home needs task lighting in specific places, but without some subtle, well-placed mood lighting, it can seem sterile and unwelcoming. This is a great opportunity to use artful lighting fixtures, table lamps and floor pieces to cast a warm and relaxed mood over a room.
A Conversation Piece
Including at least one piece of furniture that starts a conversation means that people will remember the space. Whether it’s subtle but unusual or a major focal point in your room, guests will take notice. This concept works for all styles of decor.

A Special Mirror
Mirrors serve different purposes depending on where you hang them, from making a space seem larger to serving as a place to check yourself as you go out the door. But when they are rectangular and plain, they don’t have much flair. Choosing one that has in interesting frame or shape — or even a lighting feature — will make sure it stands out.

A Spectacular Piece
A beautiful home may be fairly basic but it will at least have one truly spectacular piece that draw attention. Whether it dominates through size, color, shape or lighting, it’s the focal point of the home.

A Bar/Wine Area
Beautiful homes make guests feel comfortable and an easy way to do that is to establish a wine or bar area for entertaining. Having a designated place for all the things needed to serve people makes it easy to be organized.

Or at Least a Bar Cart
Smaller homes can still offer a hub for entertaining by using a bar cart or tea cart. Whatever the event or beverage, carts make it easy to bring refreshments to the living area. In addition, a tea cart is a stylish accent piece when not in use.

Boost the beauty factor of a home for entertaining by setting a special table. Non-traditional table coverings, mixed dinnerware and plenty of candles are easy way to elevate a table setting. Using special china to set the table also helps create an exceptional mood
