Why Those Finishing Touches Are So Important

The finishing touches in a home’s decor aren’t just extra ingredients – they are essential! Too often people decide they’re done with their interior design once the major pieces of furniture are moved in, but that only creates a half-finished look. It’s as if you decided to go to a party in plain black pants and a t-shirt. Sure it looks ok, but it doesn’t show who you are! Here’s why Pulp believes those finishing touches are key to a beautiful home!
1. Accessories Add Life + Personality
So what are the finishing touches? They can include everything from art to accessories to rugs to pillows. They are the items that add layers of life and interest to a room. You can really show your personality through accessories, like a pottery bowl you picked up in Mexico, a brass hand sculpture that you had to buy at a local gallery, or a candle that adds spice to the room’s scent. The books you choose to display also give guests and family insight into who you are. Always set aside part of your budget to finish a room with your style!
2. Draperies Offer Texture
Every room needs a feeling of warmth and texture. Window coverings like drapery, curtains, and shades not only provide a coziness, but also offer another layer of pattern and personality. They frame a beautiful view, give the space color, and create a focal point for anyone who enters the room.
3. Art Creates Focus and Soul
We love to curate or commission art for our clients. The right pieces – from paintings to sculpture to drawings – add depth and soul to a room. They spark conversations and showcase our clients’ tastes and ideas. The right art tells a story about who you are and acts as a visual anchor for the decor. Art is as important as any other piece in a home’s interior, so always keep your eye out for pieces that speak to you!
If you want a polished and personal space, give our team a call! We’re known for our ability to create bespoke and fearless interiors.
