Balance in design is everything. When we find beau Balance in design is everything. When we find beauty and peace in our surroundings, it has often been achieved through balance. The balance of shapes, colours, contrast, textures, heights, volume, light, energy and sound - and in how they all interact with each other. It can be subtle or bold, energizing or calming - and some harmonies can speak to everyone, while some are more individual. Of course, there can be balance in discord too - in breaking the rules and challenging the senses. But most of us seek harmony that resonates in a quieter way - a feeling of order and calm. Our own little oasis where we can restore and recharge. Where we can find the balance within ourselves too.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What we offer:​​​​​​​​ Custom blinds & drapery​​​​​​​​ Furnishings & decor​​​​​​​​ Bed linens & bedding​​​​​​​​ Design services ​​​​​​​​ In-home consultations​​​​​​​​ Commercial​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg

This is our kind of party! ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Why do we love rearranging our homes? ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Because most of us have an in-built desire to change and improve our surroundings:​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Its fun to try something new and switching up our space can provide a fresh perspective and create a new feel to our living area.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ It can also give us a sense of control and ownership; allowing us to make decisions about our space and create an environment that reflects our personality and preferences.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Changing around a room or space can help us to be more efficient and productive. Better use of a space, better flow, more functionality, less distraction.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Rearranging our homes is also a creative outlet. We can try out different design and decor ideas and express our individuality and personal style.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What do you think? Do you love rearranging your home too?​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What we offer:​​​​​​​​ Custom blinds & drapery​​​​​​​​ Furnishings & decor​​​​​​​​ Bed linens & bedding​​​​​​​​ Design services ​​​​​​​​ In-home consultations​​​​​​​​ Commercial​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 📷 @joyhomedesign_homestaging​​​​​​​​ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg

The windows in our showroom have both blinds and d The windows in our showroom have both blinds and drapery, which allows us to demonstrate different styles and functionality. But having both blinds and drapery on your windows can offer some great benefits: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Light control: Blinds are excellent for blocking or filtering out sunlight, while drapes can help reduce glare and soften the light entering a room. Combining both can give you ultimate control over the amount of light that enters your space. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Privacy: Blinds can provide privacy during the day while still allowing some natural light to come in, while drapes can add an extra layer of privacy at night when you need to block out the outside world! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Insulation: The combination of blinds and drapery can help to insulate your windows by creating a barrier against drafts and outside temperatures. This can help to reduce your energy bills and make your home more comfortable. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Style: Blinds and drapery can complement each other to create a layered and stylish look for your windows. This can enhance the overall aesthetic of your room and add a touch of elegance! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What we offer: Custom blinds & drapery Furnishings & decor Bed linens & bedding Design services In-home consultations Commercial ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg #windowcoveringswinnipeg
Design is not just about aesthetics, but also abou Design is not just about aesthetics, but also about functionality and efficiency. A well-designed space should address a particular need, challenge or issue in a way that is effective, efficient and satisfying for the end user.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What is the purpose of a space? Who uses this space and why? How does it relate to the rest of its surroundings? How can this space function better?​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ The essence of good design lies in the ability to identify and solve problems. A successful solution creates a space that is comfortable, practical, functional, aesthetically pleasing and that works in harmony with the surrounding environment.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What we offer:​​​​​​​​ Custom blinds & drapery​​​​​​​​ Furnishings & decor​​​​​​​​ Bed linens & bedding​​​​​​​​ Design services ​​​​​​​​ In-home consultations​​​​​​​​ Commercial​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg
Why is this the perfect recipe for any corner, esp Why is this the perfect recipe for any corner, especially an entrance or foyer? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Light, height, storage, seating and texture. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let’s expand! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Light: The alcove light and the mirror are both key for bringing this little corner to life. Lamps, lights and mirrors brighten up dark spaces, draw you in and create a focal point. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Height: Arranging the right combination of heights is important for a balanced and stylish look. Our eye prefers certain groupings and graduations in the scale and size of items - from furniture to accessories. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Storage: Good design is functional as well as aesthetically pleasing - and storage is something we all need plenty of. Cabinets and drawers keep your items tidy, organized and close at hand - and any clutter hidden away! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Seating: A beautifully upholstered chair, stool or bench is also a practical choice. Equally welcoming for sitting a moment or for being an elegant catch-all for everyday activities! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Texture: We always talk about texture, but its such a vital aspect of interiors. Texture is multi sensory and is a major contributor to how comfortable we feel in a space. Again, balance is always key! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What we offer: Custom blinds & drapery Furnishings & decor Bed linens & bedding Design services In-home consultations Commercial ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg
