Just wanted to get some idea of taste of guppies on this site
Don’t know if this is the right forum but since I don’t post in Life that much, this is the right one now
So what kinda taste do you have when it comes to decorating your house with furniture? Are you into giving your house a comtemporary look or something else?
Personally, I can’t stand comtemporary furniture and looks. It seems as if it has no character in it and everything has the same shape & design . I am more into the classic look like the one in the following picture:
you ve been reading my mind you HHL!!! .. i was gona ask the same thing ....in about a few hours time ..like when all the main flooders of GS come on .. but since you ve posted it ........... you can have the credit :D
personally i love classical .... cos theres so much life in a room filled with things where as contempory .. the rooms are empty and its like one sofa set and a table and a flower pot and the rest of the room is empty .. dead .......walls are plain no nothing on em .. and if there are any pictures or something .. its pictures of things which dont even make sense ..... so personally its definately classic.......... cos old is gold ...:)
My thoughts exactly, LOVE classic. It has so much character in it and as weird as it may sound coming from a guy lol, I just love to mix & match. Sometimes adding different colors really brings out the room. Like for example, I love the combination of Maroon and Gold (like you see in the pic). They go together like breads and eggs :D. Having some furniture of 1 color, and the other (in the same room) of different color really looks awesome.
Contemporary/Modern just seems plain no matter how many colors you mix and match.

bruv thas how exactly how i see it ... we adorn our selves with so many colours and fashion clothing but with our homes these days .. they dont even look like homes cos .. theres hardly any life to the house .........i mean i went to this new home someone bought and they did it all up and then they called my father for a Dua for all the Goodness and happy life in that house ....my father went and i tagged along .... what i saw when i got there ..that the walls of the whole house .. i mean every room is light blue painted .... and in the guest room ... theres just three sofas there and a table and shukar hai they had blinds to the window ....... man i was like ... ewwww they spent so much money on this and all they come out is with this ......... the whole house was just plain simple ...... i d rather live in a prisson cell cos thas how it looked ......
and yea definately mix and match is really important to bring life .... and well its kinda like tea bags and water and if there isnt either of something then it aint tea .....
well i personally love the colour ... hazel brown shining orange mixed .. a bit like when Autumn comes ......... its so cool .....
i want my house to look like this one day!
One of my neighbors has such a perfect house, each room is so different and well put together… very serene, no idea how she did it all on her own!
Sabriyah ..MashaAllah ....... you also have agood choice ........spanish style is just sooo amazing that ..its got the classic touch but at the same time its got the contempry touch to it slightly .. which makes things more liven up ....... that way your not stuck in just one era .. your living in two eras at one time ..........
InshaAllah one day .. just one day ............May Allah accept your Duas ....
ps. i personally like that last pic ... its just feels like home already .. although i too just like you wish .. that i cud have ahome like this :D
No offence to be taken but are you by any chance living in a cardboard box .at the moment .........:D
haha no....but there's not much I can do with my own room, i cant buy new furniture, change hte carpeting, painting, furniture etc.... when i get my own place inshallah ill try my best to decorate it to my liking.. :)

yea that is actually a problem for you at the moment ... so have you started saving up for one ...:D
on a serious note ... tell us what is your eshtyle .... and liking cos some of us might get blessed with a house before u and we may need to do it up .. and we can use some of ur ideas .....:D
haha i dont think im very creative (well lazy's more like it) so might just try to copy from a pic or u know put things i think look nice, coordinate just a tad...dont plan on being the bridezilla version of home decorator..kisi ko takleef hai w/ my decorating style they dont hav to come to my house :)
yea … well .. its understandable …basically be creative and at the end see how it turns out and @ if anyone got takleef they dunt need to come to ur house…
^lol im like you, more a coypcat… look in catalogues and create in my own home kinda person than imagine it all in my head and make it all come together! im not that blessed with creativity
^ see, i disagree… that super classic, super ornamented look is so unappealing and fussy, to me. i love contemporary furniture with its clean lines and its look. i’m not into super modern stuff, but i do like lots of dark wood trims and dark couches and curtains and sparkle from chandeliers and mirrors. i think contemporary can be gorgeous when done right.
But overall, I have seen some good combos of different contemporary but they still lack some character in them, in my opinion (others are welcome to disagree). No matter how many different colors you combine, all (or most) of the them still have similar rectangular shapes which make the room look plain & empty.
