I learned to solve all my Interior Design problems by dancing. This is Part 2 of my revelations from dancing, on how to create a dramatic focal point.

As I reflect on my journey, it becomes increasingly clear that the threads of artistic expression weave a tapestry that transcends individual disciplines. The principles that animate the magic in Interior Design are akin to those that breathe life into any art form. The key lies in our ability to perceive, to truly see, listen, and feel.

At the heart of this revelation lies a profound alignment—an exquisite dance—between art, science, and energy. Here, art signifies the wellspring of creativity, where the soul’s expression takes form. Science, in the nuanced palette of color, offers the brushstrokes that breathe life into our visions. And energy, the connective force, weaves these elements into harmonious compositions.

This alignment is the crucible from which beauty emerges, both in the graceful movements of dance and in the curated aesthetics of interiors. It’s a testament to the universality of artistic expression, reminding us that the magic is not confined to one domain but is a living, breathing tapestry woven through the human experience.

Let’s start with an example, how to create a dramatic focal point.

Center Stage- The Focal Point of any Dance

In the realm of dance, center stage holds an undeniable allure, for it is the very heartbeat of a performance. Its significance is paramount, for when it is not graced by something truly captivating, the audience’s attention naturally drifts away, seeking the magnetic pull of that central spotlight.

When you dance solo, center stage becomes your anchor, your gravitational core. Even as you traverse the expanse of the stage, this central point acts as your compass, drawing you back. However, in a group dynamic, the center stage takes on an amplified significance. It’s the magnetic focal point, where eyes naturally drift. Thus, it’s imperative that the most pivotal dancer or the crescendo of the performance resides there, ensuring that the audience remains riveted to the narrative’s heartbeat.

As the solo performer, you are the focal point, and you command the spotlight. The audience is instinctively drawn to you, recognizing that you are the heart and essence of the show. Their gaze doesn’t need to wander or decipher; instead, they can comfortably immerse themselves in the narrative you present, free from the fatigue of scattering their attention. Your presence centralizes the experience, ensuring that every movement and emotion resonates profoundly with the viewer.

Center stage is the dance’s emotional epicenter. Here, passions surge, stories unfold, and souls connect. This pivotal space isn’t just a physical location but an intimate realm where dancers bare their essence, inviting the audience to step into their world. As the spotlight illuminates this sacred ground, it’s not just about showcasing talent but opening up, revealing raw vulnerability and authenticity. It’s a heartfelt invitation that says, “In this space, I lay bare my soul, seeking a shared moment of understanding and connection. Here, in the very heart of the stage, we become one.”

Your costume isn’t merely attire; it’s an extension of your narrative, a radiant beacon that accentuates your message and adds layers of depth to your story. Meanwhile, the lighting doesn’t just illuminate; it acts as an ethereal partner, magnifying each nuance of your movement, casting shadows and highlights that dance alongside you, echoing the cadence of your emotions. Together, they frame the performance, enhancing the magic and transporting the audience deeper into the tale you weave.

From that pivotal point at center stage, you become the conductor of an unspoken symphony. With the fluidity of your hands and the intensity of your gaze, you navigate the audience’s focus, orchestrating their journey across the stage’s expanse. It’s more than just the physical space—it’s an emotional and narrative landscape that, under your guidance, blooms from the stage’s heart to its furthest edges, spilling into the room, encompassing the entirety of the theater. For the exceptionally gifted, this sphere of influence doesn’t end at the theater’s walls; it reaches out, extending its tendrils into the vast, limitless theater of the mind, beckoning the audience into worlds uncharted, yet deeply felt.

There is a lot going on in the center of the stage.

The Center Stage of Your Room is Your Focal Point

The focal point of a room is its crown jewel, the undeniable epicenter of allure. It acts as a magnetic force, effortlessly drawing one’s gaze towards the most mesmerizing, elegant, or impactful element within the space.

Much more than just an aesthetic centerpiece, the focal point has the power to infuse the room with character, weave its narrative, and even manipulate its spatial perception, akin to a window framing a breathtaking panorama that seemingly extends the room’s boundaries.

While certain focal points naturally emerge from a room’s design, like grand fireplaces, panoramic windows, or distinct architectural nuances, the beauty lies in the potential to curate your own. Through deliberate color palettes, the transformative touch of energy art, evocative backdrops, or statement pieces of furniture, one can sculpt the heart of a space, ensuring it resonates with intent and style.

Create Drama with Your Focal Point

In my office Edesign, the focal point unequivocally revolves around the desk space. Here, the vibrant hot pink desk, juxtaposed with the captivating green fractal art adorning the wall, doesn’t merely catch the eye—it resonates harmoniously with the magnificent view that lies just beyond the windowpane.

This design doesn’t stop at aesthetics; it functions as a magnetic force, drawing you deeper into the room’s essence. Simultaneously, it orchestrates a subtle ballet of attention, guiding your gaze outward, where the interior drama converges seamlessly with the breathtaking grandeur of the outdoors. In this symphony of design, the boundaries between inside and outside blur, creating a holistic experience that marries the artistry of the interior with the awe-inspiring canvas of the natural world.

The focal point artfully encapsulates the essence of someone who is undeniably unique, artistically inclined, and pulsates with vivacious energy that’s inextricably tied to nature’s rhythm. Each supporting element is not merely decorative but intentional. The flower vase, breathing life into the room, and the lamp, grounded with its earthy, stone-inspired base, contribute effortlessly to this unfolding narrative.

More than individual elements, it’s the symphony they create together that captivates. The graceful lamp, with the soft luminescence it casts, works in tandem with strategic lighting to emphasize the art’s nuances. Meanwhile, the natural daylight doesn’t just illuminate, but it enriches, heightening the focal point’s color palette. In this harmonized ensemble, every component sings in chorus, celebrating the individual’s vibrant spirit and deep reverence for nature.

You may think that home staging is just cleaning, reducing clutter, fixing things, painting, and putting your house on the market.

Those things are all important and are all things you can do to help save money in preparing your house for sale.

You can also clean your yard, put things away, trim your trees and shrubs, and repair things. Get a fresh welcome mat for the door.

So why bother hiring a home stager when you can do all those things yourself?

There are a lot of decisions to be made that can make or cost you money. Do you have the confidence you know the right answers to the following questions?

• What paint colors should you use for a higher sales price?
• Who is your target market based on a variety of factors related to the real estate market?
• How should your home look compared to others in a similar price range so you can outshine the competition?
• What do buyers in a different age group than you really want and what will attract them to connect with your house?
• What repairs and upgrades will give you a good return on your investment and which ones will just cost you the money you will never get back.
• What things can you do to emotionally connect with buyers, without looking like you are trying to do that?
• Will your furniture and current decor really work for staging and attracting buyers or do you just think so because you are not seeing things objectively?
• Is your furniture perfectly arranged to highlight the space and best features of the house?
•  Can you get furniture, art, and more for staging if needed, without having to buy it? After all, you are moving. Who wants to buy more stuff.
• Do you know good, reliable tradespeople to do the work needed for you in a timely manner for your home sale?

If your answer is no, it is really worth it for you to hire a professional home stager. They want to make sure you get the most for your home sale!

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows ! I am Mary Ann Benoit and am with you tonight from Seward Alaska! So excited to be with you tonight to share some of my new Aligned Energy Art,, called “Attachments”, and three fractal art pieces I would like to share.

Thanks to Saturday Night Live Art Shows creator, artist Brooke Harker and her co-hosts Joan Marie of Joan Marie Art, Sheryl Benjy, and Nichole McDaniel for making this possible.

Be sure to check out all the other artists from around the world,   having art shows in their Facebook and social media feeds at 6-9 pm in their time zones. Follow Saturday Night Live Art Shows on Facebook by searching #snlartshows.

 

Introducing “Attachments” Aligned Energy Art

Budda said “the root of suffering is attachment”.

 

I learned from my teacher Jim Fortin, that the biggest cause of suffering in our lives comes from our attachments, or expectations of the way we think things should be. When we don’t get what we want or how we want it, we are unhappy. Maybe we can release attachment to the idea of how things should be and just allow them to be what they are.

 

If they are not how we want or expect, maybe that is a good thing that is opening the door for something more wonderful to come into our lives.

 

This art was inspired by the energy of attachment in our lives and all the chords that bind us to the outcomes we expect and want. 

As you can see, there are chords of attachment between every part of the design, creating one interconnected whole.

Although the greens and blues are colors of nature and often are calming and relaxing colors, these pieces have a sense of high energy because of all the endless linkages.

As I usually do, I created 2 more pieces to go with it, so you can see the movement between pieces and use three together over a sofa t create a focal point in a room.

How can you use Aligned Energy Art in your space?

If the message of “Attachments”, or future concepts I plan to create resonate with you, then adding art that is meaningful as well as beautiful is a great way to create your perfect space and remind yourself of what is important in your life each day when you see it.

Art like “Attachments”  can be added to your living room,  meditation, or workout area or wherever your intuition guides you to put it.

Because this art is digital, it can also be put on a variety of home decor products such as pillows, bedding, serving trays, coffee mugs, notebooks, and more. So you could think about “Attachments”   as you sip your morning coffee out of a “Attachments”  coffee mug while writing things you want to release your “Attachments”  journal, for example, drinking out of your travel cup on the way to work or doing yoga on a “Attachments”  mat.

 Aligned Energy Art  is another layer of meaning beyond the visual beauty in creating your perfect space that is  aligned with who you want to be.

An Example

I created this Edesign, or virtual design as an example of how you could create a space using this art and express the energy of “Attachments”  in your space. Note the “Attachments”  fractal art on the framed canvases on the wall, the serving tray on the coffee table, the pillow on one of the chairs, and the place settings on the table.

Your selection of art determines the energy you want to surround yourself with.

How do you want to feel?

What is Fractal Art?

Fractal art is digital art I create on my computer. I love creating fractal art because it allows me to work with brilliant colors, interesting textures, and incredible detail.   of the process. See examples at my store on Society 6 or Pixels.com. I also create mosaics of AI art and fractal art. See some examples in the video below.

Previously, I showed you how flat lays create endless possibilities for creating a perfect space and three flat lays inspired by bird feathers.

Birds provide endless inspiration for creating beautiful designs with the intricate patterns,  colors, and textures of their feathers!

In my article Birds of a Feather- What Birds Can Teach Us About Designing the Perfect Room, I shared some ideas for one of those flat lays inspired by realistic photo art of Pintail duck and eagle feathers. I designed a room with a calm and earthy feeling that reminds me of being in the forest using the feather art and colors of nature.

This second flat lay, to me, evoked a much more glamorous style and feeling, like a cross between Modern Global Style and Hollywood Glam.

I am not sure what bird the feathers in the photo came from, but the art is less realistic and more stylized.  The black and gold color combination felt very luxurious, and like a great place to add a variety of metallic finishes.

The natural theme of bird feathers still evoked a sense of nature, inviting wood, stone,  and natural materials such as velvet, leather, and cotton.  I selected green, which is a wonderful color of nature, for the fabrics and added plants.

I decided to create a living room, that was dark and moody, with black or deep chocolate walls, and lots of different gold-tone metals. Dramatic lighting enhances the art and brings out the shine of the various brass and gold-toned lights and accessories.

Instead of the photo in the flat lay, I found several other art prints of feathers in black and gold that I used as inspiration.

I could see this combination in a living room, master bedroom, master bathroom, or powder room. How about you?

I decided to try a living room. A flat lay can first evolve into a drawing or floor plan to get a feel for how the room will work spatially.

To get the feeling of drama and glamour, I decided to try the idea of a black wall. I love it! It beautifully highlights the feather art and sets off the beautiful greens in the furniture. Of course, lighting, strategically placed and lots of it, is important when using black.

For variety, I tried a textured light-colored wallpaper similar in color to the feathers to give the room a more light and airy feeling. I think I like the black better for a glamorous feeling.

And here is it in a shade of off-white. While still pretty, I like the black walls best, and the feeling of dimension the textured wallpaper gives over the white walls. How about you?

The moral of this flat lay tale is that you can use natural elements like bird feathers to inspire glamorous, dramatic, modern, and sleek designs while still bringing the outdoors in. And, don’t be scared to use black!

Bird feathers can inspire many design styles. Look for my next article on the design for my third flat lay inspired by bird feathers.

The energy of Turkish style is deeply rooted in its rich cultural heritage, reflecting it’s position at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. Turkish interiors harmonize Byzantine, Ottoman, Persian, and Central Asian influences, giving it a wonderful exotic feeling. Turkish style is known for it;s beautiful rugs, lighting, and symbolism including tulips, the evil eye, and fish. 

My art captures that energy and those symbols. 

My designs are collages of AI and layers of fractal energy art, reflecting Turkish style and supportive energy messages. See my art on the wall and chairs of my Edesign. This art is infused with layers to inspire you to live on the path with heart, and to release attachments to what you do not need. Some of the art is hard to see but it is there, with subliminal messages. Even if you don’t see it, your brain does. 

Raise the vibe in your space today. Great design starts with energy. Surround yourself with art that reminds you what is important and enhances the energy of your space and your potential. When your space is better, you are better. When you are better, the world is better. The world needs you.

What is Globally Inspired, Soulfully Aligned?

Globally Inspired and Soulfully Aligned is a New Design Frontier. I have created a collection of collages created with AI and fractal energy art that combine Global Design styles worldly charm with the energy, alignment and emotional nurturing of my Aligned Design’s holistic approach. It’s a marriage of external beauty and internal harmony, ensuring that your surroundings are not just aesthetically pleasing but also soulfully enriching.

 

Each piece has subliminal energy messages from layers of fractal art designed to uplift and support you. My Heart of Morocco collection includes four layers from my Path with Heart collection and also my Attachments of the Heart Design.

 

My Path with Heart series emphasizes “All paths lead to the same place in the end. The important thing is that you pick a path with heart, do what you love, and enjoy the journey.” If you look closely, you will see numerous hearts from this collection throughout the design.

 

Each piece is also overlayed with my “Attachments of the Heart” design. The meaning of this piece is “Buddha said “the root of suffering is attachment”. The biggest cause of suffering in our lives comes from our attachments, or expectations of the way we think things should be.When we don’t get what we want or how we want it, we are unhappy. Attachments of the heart to our lovers, family, pets, and friends are often the hardest attachments to release. The key is to love, but not be attached to the outcome. Let it be what it is”.

 

While you may not see this large heart because of the transparancy of the design, and you may not notice all the small hearts, the subliminal message still comes through. The message is to live the path with heart without being attached to things for maximum well-being.

What is Turkish Style?

Turkish style is warm and inviting, earthy and exotic. There is an abundance of warm earth tones with pops of beautiful color. lots of patterns and texture and there is a slightly more rustic feel. It is simple, soft and relaxing.

The energy of Turkish style interior design is deeply rooted in its rich cultural heritage, reflecting the country’s position at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, bridging diverse civilizations over the millennia.

Learn more about the details of Turkish style in my article “Get the Look- Turkish Style Interior Design”.

“Heart of turkey” Aligned Energy Art

Everything is energy. The energy of your space affects how you feel and can support you in reaching your potential. Energy art can serve as the basis for the design of the room, and how it feels.  My “Heart of Turkey” energy art serves as the foundation for the style, colors and energy of this Edesign of a living room.

My “Heart of Turkey” Collection

 Aligned Energy Art  is another layer of meaning beyond the visual beauty in creating your perfect space that is  aligned with who you want to be.”

What is Energy Art and How Can it Change Your Life?

How Much Can Paint Color Increase Your Home’s Sale Price?

The impact of paint color on a home’s sale price has been the topic of numerous studies and analyses, primarily conducted by real estate companies and platforms who have access to vast amounts of sale data. One of the most cited sources on this topic is Zillow, an online real estate marketplace. Zillow released an analysis in their “Zillow Paint Color Analysis” that looked at how certain paint colors in specific home areas impacted the sale price compared to homes with white walls.

 

Painting walls in fresh light, neutral colors help buyers picture themselves living in the space because they are neutral enough to go with most buyers furnishings and they make the space look larger. Zillow found some colors in specific rooms, particularly light blues, increased the sales price in homes, and a lack of color or certain colors decreased the sales price. Why? Color affects emotion and buyers buy because of emotion!

 

Neutral colors are generally gray or beige. Picking the right paint is really about making sure the neutral colors and whites work with your fixed finishes. “Greiges” are a mixture of gray and beige that are versatile and will work with a wide variety of floorings, countertops and other finishes. Greiges are great for living and family rooms and exterior colors.

 

This color data makes sense when you think about the fact that universally, blue is a favorite color worldwide, and that the easiest way for most people to match their existing belongings to a color without having to replaint is if it is a neutral color.

 

 

Here are some highlights from Zillow’s findings over the years:

1. Front Doors:

1. • Homes with black or charcoal gray front doors sold for as much as $6,271 more than expected.

1. Living Rooms:

1. • Homes with living rooms painted in light taupe saw an increase of approximately $2,793.

1. Kitchens:

1. • Kitchens painted in light blue to soft gray-blue boosted the sale price by about $1,809.
   • However, homes with straw yellow or marigold kitchens reportedly sold for $820 less than expected.

1. Bedrooms:

1. • Homes with light cerulean to cadet blue bedrooms saw an increase in sale price by about $1,856.

1. Bathrooms:

1. • Bathrooms painted in powder blue to periwinkle had homes selling for $5,440 more than expected.
   • On the other hand, homes with white bathrooms sold for an average of $4,035 less than similar homes.

1. Dining Rooms:

1. • Slate blue to pale gray blue dining rooms boosted the sale price by roughly $1,926.

1. Exteriors:

1. • Homes painted in greige (gray + beige) on the exterior sold for $3,496 more than similar homes painted in a medium brown or with tan stucco.
   •  

These figures are averages and may vary depending on the local market, the overall condition of the house, and other factors. The numbers are also based on Zillow’s data and may not reflect the broader market as a whole.

Which Colors Are Best?

Several studies and real estate analyses have shown that certain paint colors can positively affect a home’s sale price. Here are some colors that have been recognized for their potential to boost home value, along with specific brands and color names where applicable.

 

Colors that become top sellers are often influenced by the annual “color of the year” selections made by major paint companies, as well as broader design and decor trends. I have added some additional choices similar to those recognized to boost home value based on top selling paint colors, color trends and personal experience. 

Front Doors

Navy Blue or Dark Gray: Houses with doors painted shades of navy blue to dark gray reportedly sold for a higher price. Here are top selling navy blue and dark gray colors that are popular and  could be good choices. Example: “Hale Navy” from Benjamin Moore.

The color trends for door colors in 2023 featured a lot of black and natural wood tones. Trends for 2024, you will see pops of color as well as traditional black and wood.  Personally, I think the front door is a great place to add a pop of color and make your home more memorable to buyers.  It is something they can easily change if they like.

Living Rooms:

Light Beige, Pale Taupe, or Oatmeal: Neutral colors in the living room can be appealing. Example: “Accessible Beige” or “Repose Gray” from Sherwin-Williams.

I have used Accessible Beige many times for home staging and found it to be a great color that works with a variety of fixed finishes and flooring.

Kitchens

Light Blue to Soft Gray-Blue: These colors in kitchens reportedly increase home value. Example: “Smoke” or “Pale Oak” from Benjamin Moore.

.

Bedrooms

Light Cerulean to Cadet Blue: These are reported to increase selling prices when used in bedrooms. Example: “Breath of Fresh Air” from Benjamin Moore.

Bathrooms

Powder Blue to Periwinkle: Homes with bathrooms this color reportedly fetched a higher selling price. Example: “Bit of Sugar” from Behr or “Atmospheric” from Sherwin-Williams.

Dining Rooms

Slate Blue to Pale Gray Blue: They can reportedly increase the sale price. Example: “Palladian Blue” from Benjamin Moore.

Exterior Colors

Greige (Mix of Gray and Beige): Homes painted this color often sell for more. Example: “Perfect Greige” from Sherwin-Williams.

Home Office

Light Gray: This can boost the selling price. Example: “Gray Screen” from Sherwin-Williams.

Putting it All Together

You might be wondering if you can simply choose your favorite colors from the recommended list and expect a higher selling price. The answer is not quite that straightforward. These recommendations serve as guidelines, but your entire color palette must work cohesively, starting from the exterior of your home and flowing seamlessly to the interior. Both exterior and interior colors should align with and complement fixed finishes that you don’t plan to change much, such as your roofing material, stonework, interior countertops, fireplaces, and flooring. It’s like solving a puzzle where each piece must fit together to create the whole picture.

When executed correctly, your color choices can be extraordinary, enhancing the overall appeal of your home. However, if the colors clash or feel disjointed, even if you can’t pinpoint the issue, potential buyers may sense that something isn’t quite right. The most effective strategy is to enlist the expertise of a certified color strategist who can curate a harmonious color palette based on your fixed finishes. By following these guidelines and working with a professional, you can increase your chances of selling your home faster and at a higher price.

When I say, “Up your Game”, I mean take care of all the things that you have not had time for in the past because you were too busy with customers. You know, things such as maintenance, painting and re-decorating. Why? When things open back up, people will likely be more than ready to want to get and travel, visit new places or family in other areas. Many vacation rental owners may be running special deals, trying to make up for lost income. You want your vacation rental to stand out from the crowd and your competition.

While you may be reluctant to spend any money on your vacation rental right now, if it is possible for you to do, it could reap future rewards and then some. I know from experience. See my article, Does Your Vacation Rental Stand Out from the Crowd Online for some tips.

Re-designing your Vacation Rental Can Reap Big Rewards

• • Double your bookings and income
  • Attract your ideal customer
  • Create listing photos that give you a competitive edge online.

Things to Consider Before Redesigning Your Vacation Rental

• • Who is your ideal customer? What do they want? What kind of activities do they enjoy? Are they looking for budget accommodations or something more luxurious?
  • Take an honest look around. Is your décor way out of date? You may be used to seeing it this way but that shows up loud and clear in your listing photos.
  • What kind of comments have you received in customer reviews about the comfort of your space? Have you taken action to address every single negative comment?
  • Have the bedspreads, pillows, blankets, sheets or towels seen better days and need replacing?
  • Are the colors in the room conducive to providing a calm and restful atmosphere?
  • Is everything in perfect running order? You know, no sticking toilet handles, loose drawer handles or lights that need replacing? Are all your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors up to date and working with fresh batteries? Fire extinguishers inspected and ready to go?
  • Do your online photos look better than your competitions photos? Are they professional photos?
  • Does your website not just talk about the room details, but portray an “experience”? If so, is that experience what your ideal customers are looking for?
  • Are you charging a price that is within the budget of your ideal customer, and are you providing the experience, amenities etc. that they want and expect?
  • Are you charging enough? Do you want to charge more? How can you increase the value in terms of looks, comfort and experience so you can charge what you want?
  • Have you considered what new procedures you plan to implement to deal with keeping yourself and guest safe from the virus? We know it will still be present in a most countries for quite some time.
  • See my article, Designing your Bed and Breakfast to Keep You and Your Guests Safe.

How Interior Design Can Really Up Your Game

• • Update your color scheme to create a mood and atmosphere that will appeal to your guests.
  • Update your furnishings, accessories, lighting and bedding so it looks current, fresh and new.
  • Consider whether your current layout could be re-arranged to provide more space or ease of movement, which is really important in a small space.
  • Attract your ideal customer. We all have our perfect guests. Wouldn’t you like to attract those people all the time?
  • Create an atmosphere and “experience” that will attract guests more than just a nice looking, comfortable room.
  • Increase your nightly price and overall bookings. I increased my price by $40 per night and more than doubled my bookings after re-designing my Bed and Breakfast.
  • Set your property up to get great professional listing photos. Your online photos should be more appealing and better quality than your competition.
  • Improve your customer reviews.

I started my Bed and Breakfast over 20 years ago. After I became an Interior Designer, Home Stager and Color Strategist, I learned a lot of things that I was able to use to make a huge difference in my Bed and Breakfast business that I had never considered before. Every year, I had always made improvements to make my business better. Of all the things I tried, redesigning the way it looked to appeal to my ideal customers had the greatest impact by far.

2. Architectural Details: Arched doorways, domed ceilings, and detailed cornices reflect the influence of both Byzantine and Ottoman architectural styles.

3. Textiles: Turkish design boasts a rich tradition of textiles, from thick kilims and dhurries to ornate silks and brocades. The patterns often include geometric shapes, stylized nature motifs, and medallions.

4. Turkish Rugs: World-renowned for their quality and craftsmanship, they come in a vast array of patterns, colors, and styles.

5. Ottoman-Style Seating: Low sofas or divans, often without legs, placed around a room’s perimeter, accompanied by low wooden tables and floor cushions.

8. Carved Wood: Intricately carved wooden furniture and panels, sometimes inlaid with mother-of-pearl or metal, are common.

10. Market-Inspired Decor: Items like colorful ceramic bowls, embroidered textiles, and ornate metalwork, reminiscent of the bustling bazaars of Turkey.

Incorporating Turkish design elements into a space brings with it a sense of timeless beauty and a rich tapestry of cultural influences, from the bustling streets of Istanbul to the serene beaches of its coastline. Each piece, pattern, and color tells a story of Turkey’s diverse heritage and tradition.

 

The Nazar Boncuk or evil eye, symbolizes the jealous and envious look of others, which can cause misfortunes to a person or his property. Turkish people believe that this amulet protects its holder from these types of bad energies by absorbing them.

In Turkey, the tulip symbolizes feminine beauty, perfection, paradise, the Turkish native homeland and collective cultural identity, and also has a spiritual dimension. 

In Turkish culture and interior design, the fish carries multiple layers of symbolism, much of which is deeply rooted in history, religion, and folklore.

 

The fish symbolizes protection against the evil eye, abundance, prosperity, and spiritual significance rooted in Islamic narratives. It also reflects a harmonious relationship with nature and Turkey’s rich artistic heritage, especially in ceramics and tiles.

The Energy of Turkish Style

The energy of Turkish style interior design is deeply rooted in its rich cultural heritage, reflecting the country’s position at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, bridging diverse civilizations over the millennia. Here’s an exploration of the energy and ambiance this style evokes:

 

1. Cultural Fusion: The energy in Turkish interiors speaks of synthesis and harmony, amalgamating Byzantine, Ottoman, Persian, and Central Asian influences. This union of styles exudes an aura of both familiarity and exoticism.

2. Warmth and Hospitality: Turkish culture values warmth and hospitality, and this sentiment is palpable in their interior design. Spaces are meant to be welcoming, with comfortable seating, inviting colors, and an emphasis on communal areas.

3. Sensory Depth: Turkish design provides a multisensory experience. The textures, from plush rugs to intricate tiles, combined with the rich aromas of Turkish coffee and incense, create an atmosphere of sensory immersion.

4. Historical Resonance: There’s an energy of timelessness in Turkish interiors, reminiscent of grand palaces, bustling bazaars, and serene hammams. Elements like Iznik tiles or Ottoman motifs connect spaces to a storied past.

5. Mysticism and Spirituality: Turkey’s Sufi traditions and spiritual heritage bring a mystical energy to its interiors. Elements like ornate lanterns casting patterned shadows and the intricate geometric designs often have deeper spiritual meanings, promoting contemplation and introspection.

6. Natural Connection: Many elements of Turkish design, from the colors to the materials, draw inspiration from nature — the seas, landscapes, and flora. This connection brings a grounded, earthy energy to Turkish interiors.

7. Dynamic Vitality: Just as Turkey’s bazaars are lively and dynamic, Turkish interiors have a vivacity to them. Bold colors, varied patterns, and the play of light and shadow make spaces feel alive and vibrant.

8. Balance and Harmony: Despite the rich patterns and bold colors, there’s a sense of balance in Turkish design. This harmony is achieved through thoughtful arrangement, symmetry, and the strategic use of neutrals and open spaces.

 

In essence, the energy of Turkish style interior design is a harmonious blend of history, culture, and sensory richness. It evokes feelings of warmth, connection, and timeless beauty, resonating with both the heart and the senses.

Turkish Style Design

Here is an Edesign I created to express the art, science and energy of Turkish style that is based on energy art I created. I used the colors of Turkey, and the symbols of the tulip, fish and evil eye.

See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on this design below.

The design highlights Turkish tiles on the floor, Moroccan lighting,  and a beautiful Turkish rug. Arched windows, and a Turkish chandelier add to the look.  Kilim inspired and global style pillows against a modern sofa create a nice contrast. The simple Bamboo tables have a rustic feeling and are eco-friendly.

Energy of Turkish Style Design

How is Turkish Style different from other global styles? 

Turkish interior design, deeply rooted in the country’s rich history and diverse culture, embodies an energy that’s both vibrant and tranquil. This design aesthetic, influenced by Ottoman palaces, nomadic traditions, and cross-continental exchanges, carries an energy that can be described in the following ways:

1. Historical Resonance: The energy evokes a sense of history, drawing from centuries of art, architecture, and craftsmanship. Spaces often feel like they’re telling stories of ancient times, of sultans and their courts, and of the vast empires that once were.

2. Cultural Fusion: Turkey’s position as a bridge between Europe and Asia means its style is a blend of East and West. This convergence creates an eclectic energy, combining the mystique of the Orient with the sophistication of European design.

3. Warmth and Hospitality: Traditional Turkish homes are designed with hospitality in mind. This welcoming energy is palpable, with cozy seating arrangements, plush textiles, and an overall ambiance that invites relaxation and connection.

4. Sensory Stimulation: The vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and diverse textures typical in Turkish design evoke a dynamic and stimulating energy. This is reminiscent of bustling bazaars filled with colorful textiles, spices, and lanterns.

5. Spiritual Tranquility: Islamic art and design heavily influence Turkish interiors. The absence of human and animal figures in favor of geometric patterns and arabesques, as seen in tiles, carpets, and architecture, imparts a meditative and spiritual energy to the spaces.

6. Nature-inspired Harmony: Whether it’s the blue and white evoking the Aegean sea and sky or the earthy tones of Anatolian landscapes, there’s an inherent natural balance in Turkish design that brings a harmonious energy to interiors.

7. Craftsmanship Pride: The energy of handcrafted artisanship—be it in woven carpets, hand-painted ceramics, or intricate woodwork—adds authenticity and a touch of human connection to Turkish interiors.

In essence, the energy of Turkish interior design is a harmonious blend of history, cultural intersection, warmth, spiritual depth, and artisanal pride. It invites those within the space to both celebrate its vibrant character and find moments of reflective tranquility.

Moroccan Style

Moroccan style design is a melting pot of Andalusian, Berber, Persian, and many other cultural influences, resulting in a rich and distinct aesthetic. It’s renowned for its vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and luxurious textures. Here’s a deeper dive into the colors and design elements of Moroccan style:

Colors:

1. Rich and Vibrant Hues: Deep blues, fiery reds, emerald greens, and sunny yellows are prevalent.
2. Earth Tones: Warm terracotta, beige, and browns, reflecting the country’s desert landscapes.
3. Cooler Tones: Reflecting the Mediterranean coast, you’ll see aqua, teal, and turquoise.
4. Metallic Shades: Gold and silver accents often embellish decor and fixtures.

Design Elements:

1. Zellige Tiles: These are traditional hand-cut tiles used to create intricate mosaics. They are often used in flooring, walls, and tabletops. Their geometric and floral patterns are a hallmark of Moroccan design.

2. Archways: Moroccan architecture often features horseshoe and pointed arches. They can be found in doors, windows, and alcoves.

3. Tadelakt: This is a waterproof plaster used in Moroccan architecture, especially in baths and kitchens. It offers a smooth, luxurious finish.

4. Riads: Traditional Moroccan houses often feature an interior garden or courtyard, which serves as a private oasis and a focal point of the home.

5. Textiles: Rich, tactile fabrics like silk, wool, and velvet are common, often in intricate weaves and embroideries. Think of kilim rugs, plush cushions, and flowing curtains.

6. Lanterns: Often made of metal and glass, Moroccan lanterns can be hung or placed on surfaces. Their intricate patterns cast beautiful shadows when illuminated.

7. Furniture: Low-slung seating and carved wooden furniture are typical. Inlaid bone, metal, and mother-of-pearl often embellish these

 

Here is an Edesign I created using the art of a blue staircase in Chefchaouen, a blue city in the north of Morocco as the inspiration. The place is named after the mountain tops behind the village which look like two horns of a goat (chaoua). I loved the bold colors, interesting textures and peaceful feeling of this image which I tried to capture in my design.

The design highlights Moroccan tiles on the floor, Moroccan lighting,  and a beautiful hand knotted wool rug from the Tullu region of Morocco. Arched windows, hand carved Moroccan tables and pottery add to the look.  Colorful Moroccan and global style pillows against a modern sofa create a nice contrast. 

Here is the same design using my energy art, designed to capture the artistry and feeling of Moroccan design with an overlay of fractal energy art to support you to be in alignment with who you truly are.

Here are some of my Heart of Morocco designs in my Globally Inspired and Soulfully Aligned collection.

To get the look, you could go all out and incorporate all the elements or you can add some key elements to your existing decor.

 

The Energy of Moroccan Style

Moroccan style interior design, much like other global styles, has its distinct energy and essence. However, the particular nuances of its energy are shaped by its unique cultural, historical, and geographical context. Here’s a comparison of the energy of Moroccan interior design to other global styles:

1. Historical Richness: Moroccan design is imbued with centuries of cross-cultural influences, including Berber, Spanish, French, and Arabian. This fusion creates an energy that feels both ancient and cosmopolitan.

2. Warmth & Comfort: The use of warm, earthy colors, plush textiles, and intricate carvings creates an ambiance of coziness and sanctuary. This contrasts with some minimalist or cooler global styles.

3. Sensory Depth: Moroccan interiors are known for engaging all senses, from the tactile experience of Zellige tiles and plush rugs to the visual feast of intricate patterns and the ambient glow of lantern light. This multi-sensory appeal may be less pronounced in other global styles that might focus predominantly on visual aesthetics.

4. Intricate Detailing: Moroccan design heavily features detailed geometric patterns, ornate carvings, and elaborate metalwork. While other global styles might also use detailed patterns, Moroccan patterns have a specific energy that speaks to Islamic art’s avoidance of human and animal forms and instead focuses on abstract and geometric designs.

5. Connection to Nature: With its earthy palettes, natural materials, and the incorporation of indoor plants and water features, Moroccan design fosters a deep connection to nature. Some other global styles, like Japanese interior design, also emphasize this connection, but each does so with different elements and principles.

6. Spirituality: The presence of items like ornate lanterns and archways reminiscent of mosque architecture subtly hints at Morocco’s deep-rooted Islamic traditions. This spiritual undertone might differ from other global styles which could have other religious or philosophical underpinnings.

 

In essence, while all global styles resonate with the energies of their origins, Moroccan interior design is characterized by its warm, inviting, and multi-sensory experience, layered with historical and spiritual depth. It’s a style that doesn’t just look good – it feels good, enveloping inhabitants in an ambiance that’s both exotic and comforting.

Here is an example of several Edesigns. The first I created using the typical Greek color palette of whites and blues with fuscia accents. The second highlights some of the other colors used in Greek design. 

 

Both designs highlight the Greek key pattern in the rug, arched windows, white washed walls, columns, colorful glass lamps and simple furniture. 

 

The first uses my unique fractal art, the “Sea” collection which works wonderfully with Greek design because of the color and connection with nature and the sea which is also prevalent in Greek design.
