Bring the warmth of India into your home with the use
of rich colours and textures. Whether it is your bedroom or the living room, a
touch of warmth in a home never goes amiss.
Use warm colours on your walls, or keep your walls in
a neutral shade and add a splash of warm colour to your interiors; get a bright
rug or frame an antique sari and put it up on the warm. You can also opt for
cushions in bright colours on your couches or warm lampshades. Get interesting stone
or brass work floor or table lamps to go with these but be careful not to
overdo it. Bright draperies can also add life to your room.
Look into other ways you can incorporate stone in your
decor, such as marble tables with inlay work from Agra or Rajasthan.
They might be a little expensive
but are a real investment. The north-west of the country is also a great place to buy glass from, from colourful traditional hanging-globe lamps or handis to any other artifacts.
The south of the country is a great place to buy brass
work and wood works from, while the North is a great place to source all your
carvings. Head to the North east for warm rugs and interesting bamboo works etc.
The
really great thing about Indian decor is the vast variety that’s available to
you to work with thanks to the sheer diversity of the country.
So go ahead, bring some India into your homes!
