    Take a look around your home and observe the items that you currently have. What do you gravitate towards? Are there any particular “looks” that you already have in place? Do you have a lot of natural elements, or are you drawn to modern and sleek pieces? These observations can provide you with some insight as to what type of design style you may prefer!

Take some time to explore the different design styles that are out there-view preferred vendors something for every style from Target to West Elm. From traditional to modern to eclectic, there are so many possibilities to choose from. Spend some time researching different design styles and familiarize yourself with the different elements and looks of each one. This will help you narrow down the styles that you like and don’t like.
