The Right Way To Do a Bedroom - Step 5


Step 5   Go for the Gestalt

5. The dictionary definition for "gestalt" is a set of elements such as a person's thoughts and experiences considered as a whole and regarded as amounting to more than the sum of its parts. It's really our human tendency to "complete" objects. For example, when looking at a quarter moon, our minds finish the circle. Same thing applies when decorating. If you choose a curvilinear form for the bedroom furniture complete the "circle" with roundish motifs for the linen fabric and window treatments. It's a pleasing whole!  Continue your marrying of like forms in the bedroom, and you'll create a wonderful, pleasing space.
