Saturday Night Live Art Shows- Increase Your Personal Power with “Solar Plexus Chakra” Energy Art
Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows. I’m Mary Ann Benoit, an energy artist and Interior Designer from Seward, Alaska. In this show, I share four fractal art designs in my “Solar Plexus Chakra” series and show you how you can increase your personal power and sense of well-being with energy art and the design of your space.
Would you like to enhance your self-confidence and feel more powerful?
Do you worry about what people think of you, and seek constant approval?
Do you often doubt or mistrust people? Do you have digestive issues?
The energy of your solar plexus chakra may be blocked.

Everything is energy. This chakra is also called the Manipura chakra, which means a beautiful gem. My fractal art shows gem-like qualities and contains the energy and color of the solar plexus chakra.
Yellow inspires happiness, optimism, energy, creativity, and sharp thinking. I infuse my energy into my art and designs, to help give you what you need. Mixing that with your intention to heal yourself, makes for a powerful combination of energy in your home.
Use this art to create new beginnings, stand in your power, boost your self-confidence, and proudly shine your light. See how to use this art in these Edesigns I created for this show.
Everything is energy. My fractal art is sacred geometry. It represents the building blocks of life and what energy might look like if you could see it. Why not raise the energy around you to a higher level with art, for your health and well-being? Surround yourself with art that reminds you what is important and enhances the energy of your space.

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. Learn more about how it is created in my Saturday Night Live Art Show, ” A Passion for Purple” where I show some videos of the process.
Create an Exotic Global Style Living Room with a Gorgeous Blue Rug
Bohemian style celebrates warm earthy colors, metals and jewel tones. Bohemian decor often uses deep browns, greens, grays or other neutral colors for base colors, then accessorizes with saturated purple, fiery orange, and electric blue and other jewel tones.
Bohemian style lovers are often carefree, dislike rules and want to follow their heart’s desire!
Do you like vintage furniture and light fixtures, globally inspired textiles and rugs, and love displaying your collections of cool things found at markets. thrift stores and in your travels?
I bet you like glamorous fabrics, lighting and accessories with well-worn items, antiques or cool pieces from other styles. Anything goes if it makes you happy. More is more!
Bohemian style is a global design style. Global styles are all about your worldly adventures and telling your story! They are usually very colorful, rich in bold designs and natural textures, patterns, colors, and arts and crafts of various cultures.
Get the Look and Celebrate Your Favorite Color- Blue!
A great way to get the look of Bohemian style is with a beautiful area rug. It can become a focal point for your room and help guide the color scheme and your choices for accents and accessories such as throw pillows, art, lighting, and more.
Celebrate your favorite color by picking a rug that highlights it and build the rest of your room around the work of art you picked for your floor.
One of my favorite colors is blue, so here are some examples of my favorite blue Bohemian or global style rugs.
My Favorite Blue Global Style Rugs
I changed the look of the following living room by changing the rug and sometimes the paint color. See how the room changes its look and feeling just by changing the pattern of the rug and shades of blue in the room, while still using the same art, furniture and accessories.

Let’s Create Your Global Style Design
Are you ready for your house to go to the next level where your house looks great, feels great, and supports you to be great?Imagine that.
What’s it like when you are living in the perfect space for you?
My philosophy of great Interior Design, which I call Aligned Design, considers three key factors; art, science and energy. The intersection of the three is where the magic happens.
Creating a space that envelops you in your vision of beauty and color, while fine-tuning the energy of your space to promote wealth, health, love, and perfect self-expression aligns you with the universe, allowing you to live your best life so you can make a positive impact on the world.
Global style Interior Design is part of the art of great design and one of the things you are really going to love about creating the perfect space for yourself. Are you ready to immerse yourself in rich beautiful colors and truly tell your story?

I Learned to Solve All My Interior Design Problems by Playing Music- Every Part Must Do Its Part
Every Part Must Do Its Part
Music is made of parts and every part is critical to making the magic happen. When they work together perfectly, then you have created a masterpiece!
All music has a structure. This usually includes a series of parts in order such as an introduction, a verse that is repeated several times with variations, a chorus or bridge that is different, and often the memorable highlight of the piece, a few more verses, and an ending. Often there are solos in the chorus.
All of these parts help build and tell the story and create something “delicious to the ears” as my drum teacher Amir likes to say.
Mary Ann Benoit playing a frame drum for a Middle Easter dance show in Eagle River, Alaska.
Within the structure, there are more parts. These are the instruments, which layered together create a rich, delicious song for your ears. Eash has an important role to play in the final result.
The drums keep the rhythm for all the instruments. The bass is the bridge between the drums and the melodic instruments, playing both rhythm and melody. And there are several melodic instruments.
The melodic instruments usually take turns supporting each other with one or two playing the main role while the others back them up playing supporting roles or harmonies.
In the video below I created a 13 beat piece of music and played all the parts myself. Even as a one-woman band, I needed to make sure all the parts would work perfectly in harmony with the others and each supported the whole.
Mary Ann Benoit performing all the parts of her composition, For the Love of 13’s.
In many pieces, every instrument has a chance to be the star for a short time during a solo or by playing a more prominent part, while the others back them up. But, there should only be one star (at least at a time).
The magic happens because of the layers, which work in harmony for the greater good of the musical composition. The collaboration creates something much more beautiful than any particular part or instrument on its own.
Even if all the instruments are the same, the layers of all working together to create one piece is magical.
Khoda, performed on Dafs and Frame Drums by students at Amir’s School of Music.
Yet, every part has a chance to shine. The piece needs just the right number of parts, no more or less.
Interior Design Lessons from Dance
What does this have to do with Interior Design?
Your perfect space has a structure, tells a story, and is layered with pieces that all have their supporting roles and time to shine. When done in perfect harmony, that is when the magic happens.
This is Part 2 in my revelations from lessons learned from playing music on how to create your perfect space.
The older I get, the more I realize the connections between all things artistic. The same principles apply to making the magic happen in Interior Design or any other art form. You just need to open your eyes, listen, and feel it to notice.
It always seems to come back to the alignment between art (creativity), science (color), and energy (connection) that makes the magic happen. I use this alignment to create both beautiful dance pieces and interiors.
Like a piece of music, your design also has a structure. You can think of it as an introduction, verses that lead to the dramatic chorus, more verses, and an ending.
As you enter the room, the flow to your focal point is like your introduction. All the supporting pieces that create the meat of the room and the story are like your verses. The focal point or main attraction is like your chorus or bridge and then you have an exit or end. All working together, tell the story of the room.
Play Your Part
Like instruments that each add a different sound and unique character to the music, your design parts include your flooring, furnishings, accessories, art, and lighting. They all need to coordinate and work together to create something more beautiful together than any individual part. The parts all have roles to play. If they are not contributing to a better “whole piece” than it may be “clutter” and should be removed.
Some of my many drums.
Take a Solo
Musical compositions often allow the instruments to take a solo and have their time to shine while being supported by the other players.
Your art is often the focal point or soloist. Why not take a cue from music and change out your art to change the look and feel of your room from time to time. It creates a more interesting composition.
Original fractal art, “A Passion for Purple” by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design.
Here is an example of this same room (an Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design), with different art or “soloists”. See how the energy of the room changes by changing the art?
One playing with a group of similar instruments, each piece still needs to add to the overall texture of the compositions in the Daf arrangement for Khoda above.
This neutral living room is an example of a musical piece with all the same instruments, due to the similar neutral colors. Each part stands out with its different patterns or textures to add to the final design.
This monochromatic and neutral design as the same feeling in that all the parts are very similar, but the subtle but interesting differences of the individual elements creates a beautiful layered final design.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
In the Edesign below, all the parts are very different, as when you have a musical piece with many instruments. When the parts are so different, extra care must be taken to make sure all the parts work in harmony (such as with your color palette).

Are You Ready to Create Your Masterpiece?
Now that you know some of the elements that work together to create your perfect space, are you ready to take action to make it happen in your home? If you knew absolutely for certain that creating a perfect space would create a better life for you, you would do it, wouldn’t you?

I Learned To Solve All My Interior Design Problems by Playing Music
Contrast is the Key to Striking Beauty
While in my doumbek class last week, my drum teacher Amir Etemadzadeh, who is a native of Iran was talking about the importance of being able to distinguish clearly all the notes we can make on our drums. The more notes, the better. The more clearly they are different from each other, the better and more beautiful it sounds to the listener.
Amir describes it as creating a beautiful and delicious meal and all the notes are like the spices and layers that make it delicious to the ears.
Mary Ann Benoit of Tavus Dance Company performing on her doumbek for a show in Anchorage Alaska.
As he waxes poetic about the beauty of contrast and how critical it is to distinguish the doum from the slap, and how the Teks and Kas should be as bright and high as possible, my mind wanders to Interior Design and the importance of contrast there as well.
In music, if the notes are not easily distinguishable, they can all start to sound the same, and some notes will make others sound muddy or dull because each is not living up to its full potential. Your playing becomes boring for the audience.
Interior Design Lessons from Dance
What does it have to do with Interior Design?
Just as a drummer wants their music to sound delicious to the ears, we want our rooms to look delicious to our eyes. Contrast is one of the keys to creating great beauty.
This is Part 1 in my revelations from playing music on how to create your perfect space.
The older I get, the more I realize the connections between all things artistic. The same principles apply to making the magic happen in Interior Design or any other art form. You just need to open your eyes, listen, and feel it to notice.
It always seems to come back to the alignment between art (creativity), science (color), and energy (connection) that makes the magic happen. I use this alignment to create both beautiful dance pieces and interiors.

How Does Contrast Relate to Interior Design?
Contrast is important in creating interest and making you feel something in the room. You can create contrast with color, texture, shapes, lighting, levels, patterns, sizes and more.
The more contrast between things, the more they each stand out and shine with their own inherent beauty, complimenting each other, rather than one stealing the spotlight and making the other look dull.
There is a lot of complexity to this subject. Today, I will focus on color.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
Creating Contrast with Whites and Neutrals
As my teacher spoke about the sounds of the drum, the first thing that came to mind was how important contrast is when using the color white.
White. How seemingly simple but how complex. Many, when confused about color will say, lets just paint it white and be done with it. Haha, well, that just opened a big can of worms.
The Beauty of white. Photo by Robin Schreiner on Unsplash.
There are so many whites out there, it is amazing. Why? Because white is a color, just like any other, and is ultimately, the least saturated or a low saturation of a hue. Example, take a blue and reduce its chroma until it looks white, It is still that same blue, but with very little chroma. That is why all whites look so different.
P. S., it has nothing to do with so called “undertones”, which is just a word people use that do not understand color science to subjectively describe what they see.
No big deal, until you decide to mix whites in your space. One white can make another look muddy, or dirty, or just “off”.
Why? You need to make sure there is enough difference in chroma to easily distinguish the two whites. And there should still be some color harmony between the hues the whites come from. Whites that are opposites on the color wheel look better together than ones that are so close to each other that they look off.
Neutrals are the same as whites. They just have a little more chroma.
Finding the beauty of a neutral palette using various shades of whites, off whites and neutrals with enough contrast to see all the variations can be gorgeous. Throw in a variety of shapes and textures to add even more interest and variety.

Get the Look
Here is an example of a beautiful and relaxing Edesign I created using whites and neutrals with contrasting colors and textures.

Creating Contrast with Opposite Colors
Of course, you can get maximum contrast with saturated hues. The highest degree of contrast comes from either using black and white, or opposite colors on the color wheel, which creates a complimentary color scheme.

Maximum Contrast with a Complimentary Color Scheme
Blue and yellow are opposites or compliments on the color wheel. Each makes the other look even more vibrant.

I Learned To Solve All My Interior Design Problems by Dancing- Bring on the Bling
Bring on the Bling
A dance performance needs some bling.
It can be sparkly and glittery jewelry or fabrics that create magic under the stage lights. It can be accessories that make musical or percussive sounds as you move. It might be the tassels and sparkly bits that show off your movements. It could be or a costume with cultural elements that tells the story of the dance or the culture it came from. The bling adds depth, excitement and the final touches.
It is about more than beauty. It’s about the story it tells and the mood it creates.
It’s like the jewelry that completes the perfect black dress. The jewelry says who you are, how you are feeling, and the mood you are setting for your evening.
It is also like the elements or accessories that finish off the perfect space in your home.
Me taking a bow after performing a classical Persian dance. I designed the coat with a peacock on it to represent our dance company, Tavus, which means peacock in Persian.
For example, I am in a dance company named “Tavus”, which means peacock in Persian. The peacock is a sacred bird in Persian mythology and a symbol of royalty and power. The peacock has been sacred and revered throughout history by many cultures.
We designed classical Persian coats by attaching beautiful peacock appliques to sequined blue material to tell the story of our dance company. We designed hats that have a peacock and peacock feathers. Our jewelry highlights the peacock colors and resembles a peacock tail. Everything sparkles under the lights, shows off movement, and a variety of textures.
Our bling tells the story of who we are, and adds depth and texture, like adding the shadows in a painting so you bring out the three dimensions.
The custom classical Persian hats we designed to go with our costumes.
The older I get, the more I realize the connections between all things artistic. The same principles apply to making the magic happen in Interior Design or any other art form. You just need to open your eyes, listen, and feel it to notice.
It always seems to come back to the alignment between art (creativity), science (color), and energy (connection) that makes the magic happen. I use this alignment to create both beautiful dance pieces and interiors.
As in dance, bling, is what finishes off the room, creates the mood, and helps tell the story. Bling is the special elements, accessories, and accents.
Here are some examples of some favorite accessories or elements that can help create your perfect space. Some contain affiliate links. This means I may earn a small commission if you buy something at no additional cost to you.
It is about more than beauty. It’s about the story it tells and the mood it creates.
Fire Can be the Best Bling
Fire adds light, sparkle, warmth and a magic all its own. It can be your best bling. A fireplace is perfect in a bedroom or living room. Candles can create the same effect on a smaller scale.
In the Edesign I created below, the fireplace and candles are the main bling. Additional accessories which would highlight the colors and natural elements of this beach front bedroom are listed below.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
Natural Elements Make Great Bling
Nature is great bling. A spectacular view highlighted by natural decor elements creates an inspiring and relaxing space.
While accessories made of natural elements such as wood, stone, plants, metals, and more are not often shiny, sparkly, or dramatic, they add warmth and texture and align the energy in your space with the outdoors.
In the Edesign I created below, the view is the bling, highlighted by natural elements for the decor such as the wood table, stone lamps and planter and plants. Everything is very simple, letting the view stand out as the main decor element.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
Lighting is Great Bling
Lighting adds beauty, color, style and creates the ambiance that can really make a room. Layers of lights create the magic. Use overhead lighting, floor lamps, table lamps, and spotlighting for art and other elements. Learn more in my blog article, How to Make Magic Happen in Your Home with Lighting.
Below are some of my favorite table lamps. Some contain affiliate links.

What You Do With Your Five Minutes of Infamy Shows Who You Are
Some time or another, we all get our five minutes of fame, or infamy depending on what you do with it. I think your choices tell a lot about who you are.
I have had many chances for my five minutes of fame on the radio, on the dance or music stage, in publications and more. This time felt a little different, maybe because the audience seemed so big!
I thought I would share my experience, in case it helps you when your five minutes comes around:)
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
The Experience
I had a call from the Podcast Business News Network in New York City, inviting me to do an interview on home staging and Interior Design. The man I spoke to gave me the impression the interview would be about 20 minutes and it would happen either the next day or the day after. They found my name on the Staging Diva Directory of Home Stagers. They mentioned how they had 21 million listeners live and 40 million listeners total. There were about 100,000 in Alaska where I live (mouth drop).
I asked if I would know what the questions were in advance and they said yes. They also said it was free, and there was no obligation. The interview would be live and then I would get a link to the recording to share on social media or wherever I wanted.
I thought OK, what the heck. What could go wrong other than saying something dumb when 20 million people could hear me. Why not. Sign me up.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
I was transferred to someone else who was to schedule me. Then I was told it was only 5 minutes and they would send me a questionnaire to fill out. Hmmm, OK, well that is fine too.
I got my questions quickly by email, took the evening to consider my responses, and sent them in the next day. I considered what message I really wanted to get across, and practiced, timing myself to make sure it could be said in under 5 minutes. Not easy! There was a lot of editing.

Other People’s Reaction to the Upcoming Interview
Now it gets interesting. I posted some info about the interview, the day and time, and how people could tune in. I hoped a few people might be interested and it would be easier picturing some friendly faces listening.
Friends on Facebook were all very supportive.
Crickets from anyone on my Facebook business page.
Some colleagues downplayed it or warned me about it. One said, oh I got one of those messages and deleted it. Another mentioned the red flags to consider, such as the reviews made it sound like the show was a bunch of infomercials and it may just be about selling me something. Others just ignored my post altogether. After all, most of us are busy with our own stuff with no time to waste listening to interviews.
The Facebook group I am in for a business class was incredibly supportive, with all kinds of positive things to say and suggestions on how to make the most of the interview, especially the call to action at the end.
My mom said, oh I will be busy then so can’t listen. You will do fine.
After all that, I had mixed emotions, running from nerves to excitement to wondering if I was being taken in by some too good to be a true scam.
Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
What Would You Do?
What would you do?
I started thinking, if I help 1 person out of the supposed 41 million just by jabbering on for 5 minutes, it is all worth it.
Whatever happens, I can share it in a blog article and help others as well.
All the preparation for the interview helped me clarify how I describe my new Aligned Design system to people which will help me with my website copy.
I learned a lot from my business class friends about how to make the most of these short interviews when the opportunity presents itself.
I also learned to consider what the red flags might be and if they were worth not doing it for.

The Interview
Please give a description of your company and the products/services you offer.
Northern Lights Home Staging and Design offers Color Consulting, Edesign, Interior Design, and Home Staging, for homes and businesses in south-central Alaska and everywhere online. I also create a one-of-a-kind fractal art home décor. My unique method, called Aligned Design aligns art, science, and energy to create the perfect space for you or your customers. Considering these three key things together what makes the magic happen.
2. How long have you been in business?
7 years.
3. Tell us about your background and business.
Homeowners hire me to collaborate with them to create the perfect space for them, which makes them happy and it supports them in being their best selves. I think of this as creating “expansion”, or the look and feel of a “better, happier life”. Who doesn’t want that!.
Business owners also hire me to create that perfect space to attract their ideal customers. People buy when they think you are offering something that makes their lives better or happier in some way, whether it is an experience or a product.
Home sellers hire me to create that perfect space through home staging. I portray the possibility of that “better life” which makes an emotional connection with buyers so they make an offer.
Creating the Look and Feel of Something More, and a Happier, Better Life
To create the look and feel of something more, and happier, better life, I use a holistic approach, that aligns art, science, and energy,
Art is the creativity I use to express your style, tell your story and create a room that is beautiful to you.
Science is the color science which I use to help you create your perfect color palette. As one of the few color strategists in the country, I measure your colors and use color data as well as what looks great to give your extraordinary color.
Energyis the connection I create between you and your space and surroundings using tools like Feng Shui, and biophilia or connecting to the outdoors.
Example of Creating Expansion
Imagine, a master bedroom that looks like a calm, relaxing sanctuary with great views of the ocean and a fireplace. The design and colors connect with the outdoors. It had beautiful furniture and art, soft rugs and a fireplace with 2 chairs and a bottle of wine. For a homeowner, this “perfect space” would provide a sanctuary at the end of the day. For a business owner, say a Bed and Breakfast owner, the room would offer an experience of a “better and happier” life that people would pay for. For a home seller, a room staged this way would offer the buyer a glimpse of a better life they would have if they bought the house.

What Do You the Listeners to Know About You?
I believe that your space has a huge effect on how you feel every day. When your space is aligned with who you truly are or want to become, you feel better. And that feeling can spread to other areas of your life, and to everyone around you. Your surroundings influence who you are and can become. It is worth investing in yourself by creating your perfect space.

During the Interview
I was a little nervous, not too bad. All was going well. Then, they threw in the surprise question.
Seriously?
Why oh why do they do that? But guess what. I rolled with the punches. The question was, tell us about your background.
Ahhhhh, no. That will take the whole 5 minutes and no one cares. I would rather tell people about my business which could actually help them. So what did I do?
I answered with one sentence and then proceeded to tell them about my business. In other words, I took charge of the interview and talked about what I wanted to:)
I felt a little bad about that , but not that bad. Anyway, it was over in a couple minutes so I didn’t feel bad for long!
Over all, I think it went pretty well.
After the Interview
One friend listened that I know of, and was very complimentary.
I got a call from their executive producer who wanted to share the feedback from the show. She mentioned 8 people tried calling in, they had numerous compliments and three people inquired about it. It was funny, when she said this I thought this is probably the sales pitch they give everyone. But, when she opened the conversation she said they had an amazingly good response, and the tone in her voice made me wonder if it was really true and it surprised her. Or maybe she was just that good.
In any case, she did try to sell me on more. She said the free shows were a way to see who was a good candidate for a longer show and judge audience response. They had a variety of show packages you could do ranging from $500 for one show to 5 weeks for $7500 with individual commercials created, and the podcasts being listed forever on the site. I did not pay much attention to all the details because I was not interested in doing that.
This might be a good opportunity for you, however, regardless of the business you are in, so you can check out their website and see if you want to get your free 5 minutes of fame and go from there.
FYI, my mom actually listened to it after all. She is generally more critical than complimentary on just about anything I do, but in this case, was gushing with praise. That made it all worthwhile for me:)
How about you? What would you do? Take it, leave it, make the most of it or pass it by? Let it scare you? Rise to the challenge? Think about it….maybe they will call you tomorrow!

If you love feeding and entertaining guests, this might be the style for you, as this is very important in Turkish culture and reflected in their designs.

Turkey is known for their Kilim rugs and decorative coffee sets.
Turkish style is an example of global style Interior Design. Global Style Interior Design is all about telling the story of your life and adventures through your decor. Each piece has a story and becomes a conversation starter. Treasures, old and new are displayed from various parts of the world and layered in a rich tapestry of color, texture, art and history.
Colors of Turkey
Here are some of the varied colors used in Turkish design.
Warm and Earthy Tones: Terra cotta, burnt orange, and deep browns, reminiscent of the country’s landscapes and architecture.
Jewel Tones: Sapphire blues, emerald greens, and ruby reds, drawing inspiration from the vibrant bazaars and royal history.
Mediterranean Blues: Aqua, turquoise, and teal, reflecting the hues of the Aegean and Mediterranean seas.
Soft Neutrals: Creams, beiges, and soft grays often serve as base colors, providing balance to the vibrant hues.

Design Elements- The Art of Turkish Style
Here are some of the design elements Turkey is known for.
Iznik Tiles: These are highly decorative ceramic tiles, with intricate designs often featuring tulips, roses, pomegranates, and hyacinths in bright blues, reds, and greens.
Architectural Details: Arched doorways, domed ceilings, and detailed cornices reflect the influence of both Byzantine and Ottoman architectural styles.
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.
Turkish Rugs: World-renowned for their quality and craftsmanship, they come in a vast array of patterns, colors, and styles.
Ottoman-Style Seating: Low sofas or divans, often without legs, placed around a room’s perimeter, accompanied by low wooden tables and floor cushions.
Lanterns: Turkish lanterns or “mosaic lamps” are often made of colored glass set in metal, casting warm, colored light.
Copper and Brass: Hammered copper bowls, trays, and coffee pots (like the cezve used for Turkish coffee) are popular decor items.
Carved Wood: Intricately carved wooden furniture and panels, sometimes inlaid with mother-of-pearl or metal, are common.
Marble: Used extensively in architecture and interior elements, from floors to hammam (bath) interiors.
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 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:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 are some examples of Edesigns I created to express the art, science and energy of Turkish style using my own art.

This design was inspired by the photo of Byzantine architecture and the Turkish area rug I also incorporated my Great Conjunction Fractal art. as the colors and shapes were perfect for Turkish Style.
My Great Conjunction Fractal Art.
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.

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.
If you want to get the look with more neutral colored walls, you could go with an off white or sand color to keep the look of the colors of the desert, and emphasize the grace and light of Byzantine architecture.

How is Turkish Style Different?
How is Turkish Style different from other global styles? See my blog articles on the other styles to learn more.
Your takeaway is that by changing some of the elements in your existing design, you can work towards creating a certain global style. Or you can have a mix of elements for a more “Bohemian Style”. More on that to come.

The key to beauty, whether it is a beautiful room, a poem, a dance, a piece of art or music is doing nothing. Create silence, emptiness, and space. The silence is nothing and everything. Without it there is nothing.
The silence allows the thing within it, before it and after it to shine, to align and have meaning, so it does not get lost in the racket of life.
Creating silence or space is hard. It is not easy or natural for us. Our minds are constantly going with monkey chatter, all day, every day and we have a hard time turning it off.
When was the last time you tried sitting in total silence for a day? 4 hours? An hour? A minute? Does that make you uncomfortable, like the silence in a conversation that must be filled?
Does sitting silently with yourself, highlight you in the space around you and who you really are?
Fellow drummer and Professor Nükhet Kardam taught me that the period of silence between when one person speaks, finishes and another starts is related to culture. For example, in England, there is a pause between speakers. In the US, there is no pause and people just jump in before you are sure the speaker is done. In Brazil, Italy and Turkey, speakers do not wait for you to finish before they start talking.
I don’t know about you, but I find it exhausting to not be able to finish my point or thought before being interrupted. And I know I do it to others, much as I do not mean to. And how often are we really listening to others rather than just thinking about what we are going to say when it is our turn?
I have been thinking a lot about the magic of silence lately.
What motivates us to express or be silent, in our spaces, words, art, music, or dance?
Is it to convince, show power, be known, connect, or show that we matter? As much is said in the silence as in the words, if not more since our imaginations fill in the space. I think the reasons for both are varied and tell us a lot about the person.
Sometimes we experience moments of silence in the midst of lot’s of activity and movement, and other times you can hear a pin drop in a silent room.
I remember the moment in the picture below, a moment of peace and internal silence amidst the swirling movement, colors, noise, music and people at a performance at a large festival.
The Drama of Silence in Dance
As a dancer, I know that the most dramatic moments of a dance are often in the silence, where you just totally stop in a pose, and look at the audience. That moment of total vulnerability and connection between you, alone on the stage while baring your soul to them. It is the place your heart is open and they can love you or throw tomatoes, and whatever they decide to do you must accept gracefully. Yes, people actually do this for fun?
Silence and Music
As a musician, as I read the music and play my drums, I know how important every rest, or silence is in making it possible to even have a beautiful rhythm. Otherwise, it is an endless series of meaningless notes. And it is not just the rhythm, but knowing when to add my notes to what others are playing and when to be silent, so the whole is something beautiful we have created together, rather than a piece being overwhelmed with one person’s ideas or need to express. The magic happens in combination of notes and silence.
Beethoven’s 5th would just be a bunch of meaningless notes without the silence.
Silence and Personal Transformation
In my personal development journey, I have silence homework as part of the Transformational Coaching Program with Jim Fortin (TCP) I am taking. I recently finished my second assignment of sitting in silence for 4 hours. I did not find the idea scary, although many of my fellow students had lots of excuses why they could not do it. I enjoyed it. The first time my mind was filled with monkey chatter until the last hour. Finally, when the silence became comfortable, meaningful thoughts were allowed in.
Where do they come from? Universal mind or energy, or from my true self? I don’t know, and it doesn’t really matter. The second time, the flow started almost right away. It is well worth it.
The word silence in Arabic means inner peace, heart ease, trust, calmness. When was the last time you experienced that? It is something we all need.
Writing and White Space
As a blogger, I am very aware of the importance of white space. When you see a long email with no breaks, what do you do? I delete, set aside and never come back to it, or say things I can’t repeat here and read if I have to.
If you want to share a meaningful idea, let it shine with a little space around it.
Silence and Interior Design
As an Interior Designer I often see what could be a beautiful room destroyed with too much stuff. It is like the owners have taken what is going on in the inside of their heads and put it all in the room. Too much information
As a Color Strategist, Color science tells me the way we see a color is affected by the adjacent colors. To see the beauty of a color in all it’s glory, give it a little space or contrast with the absence of color- white- next to it.
The picture below is an example of too much stuff, not giving anything room to shine, or a place for the eye to rest. There is also too much color chaos going on here. I love lots of colors when they work together harmoniously and in the right proportions. This room has no silence and it seems like you could never relax here.
Too much information.
Creating Your Perfect Space with Silence
Creating silence in your Interior Design is one way to get that “inner peace” in your home. I started thinking more about this after one of my TCP coaches, Jill Renee Stevens, mentioned how “white space is everything” in the brain for your own personal power, or in a beautiful home.
As an example, the Edesign I created below of a Moroccan style dining area is rich with warm color, texture, pattern and excitement, typical of this global style.
Edesign of Moroccan style dining room by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design
How can you create silence in a design style like this?
In the same room, I toned down the colors and created physical white space on the walls, and simplified the table setting. Notice how in the design below the two sweet little bird sculptures now stand out, where they were lost in the other design.
This design feels more peaceful and relaxed. The extra “space” allows you to notice the window and lighting details more, as there are less other things to look at. The eye has the ability to rest more here.

The same concepts apply to the adjacent living area. This design was inspired by the art, and contains lots of color and pattern on the walls, floor, decor, windows and lighting. There are interesting things to look at everywhere in the design, and it feels rich, and exciting, but no particular design element stands out more than another. The rich blue next to the white sofa looks even more dramatic.

Below, to create “silence”, I used white on the walls, neutral colors on the pillows, a simple white floor, more subtle colors on the chairs. The result is that now the art (my own fractal art called the “Sea”) stands out and becomes the highlight of the room. This room has more silence and white space, feels more relaxed and it highlights the art in it’s own right, rather than as an inspiration to tie the room together as in the first design.

Below, I changed the wall color, creating a more monochromatic color scheme. Notice how the white sofa and green plant now stand out. You can still create silence or white space without having to use the color white. Space and silence has a look and a feeling.

Creating that perfect space for you may include doing nothing….and giving your design some silence.
Even if you crave more excitement and drama in your design, you can still add silence through perfectly placed art or accessories by giving them room to shine and through expert use of color.

My philosophy of great Interior Design, which I call Aligned Design, considers three key factors; art, science and energy. The intersection of the three is where the magic happens.
Your home is like your body, a system that works together. To be healthy, you need to consider all the parts as a whole.

Do you want a beautiful, healthy home that looks and feels great without spending tons of time or money? Do you wish your home was a sanctuary and perfect space for you?
Your perfect space can support you in your journey to BE the person you need to be to live your perfect life.
The Perfect Space- Who Cares?
Most of us think our house or space is OK, but we wish it was better. If pressed, we would admit we really wished it felt like a sanctuary, a place that took our breath away with it’s beauty, a place that brought us joy, peace, well-being. A place that was comfy, yet exciting. A place that supports our dreams and that we are proud of.
Is it really that important?
YES.
You deserve to have your perfect space.
When your space is better, you are better. When you are better, the world is better.

How Does Your Perfect Space Make Your Life Better?
Our perfect space is an alignment of art, science and energy that supports who we truly are. Below I describe some ways that “energy” contributes to creating your perfect space, and to making your life better.
Our Perfect Space Supports our Growth
We all grow, change and evolve. Hopefully for the better! We are not the same person we were ten or five years ago. Our space needs to change to reflect that, Our tastes and interests change, our families grow, everything changes. Why should our space stay the same? If it does, is it still supporting us to live our best life?

Our Perfect Space Supports our Peace and Well-Being
A sense of well being is one of the highest states of mind we can achieve. Our space can support that. When we have too much clutter, or things that no longer serve us it can feel overwhelming and chaotic. Getting rid of things and re-organizing helps bring a feeling of peace and renewal.

Our Perfect Space Supports our Self Care
We all need space and time to nourish and care for our physical, mental and emotional needs. Our perfect space can provide that whether it is a quiet comfortable place to read and learn, a place to meditate, room to lift weights, dance or do Tai Chi, the perfect spa like bathroom, or whatever supports you.
Aligned Design- Our perfect space supports our self-care.. Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design.
Our Perfect Space Connects us to Nature
Wherever you live, whether in the city, suburbs or country, feeling connection to nature and life beyond ourselves is important. Biophilia, which translates to “love of life,” describes our connection with nature as a biologically-driven need to interact with other life such as animals and plants. Our perfect space can support that need through color, accessories, art and, sounds, smells and more. Learn more in my article, Feel Good with Biophilia, or The Colors of Summer- Bring the Outside In.
Aligned Design- Our perfect space connects us to nature.. Edesign by Northern Lights Home Staging and Design.
Our Perfect Space Connects us to our Environment
Our environment includes more than just the natural world outside our walls, and the parts we bring inside. We have a connection to the physical space and building, and the objects around us. The arrangement of things and how we interact with it can affect how we feel. Feng Shui is the study of time and space and considering it helps harmonize natures forces within your space and the surrounding environment. This can help improve your health, wealth and relationships.

Our Perfect Space Supports Getting to Know Ourselves
Many of us do not know ourselves well, and maybe are scared to. When was the last time you took 4 hours of silence to be with yourself and allow the monkey chatter in your brain to turn off so you could allow meaningful information a chance to make it through? Taking time to get to know yourself is important. Our perfect space can support that by providing comfortable, quiet spaces for our personal growth.
Our perfect space supports getting to know ourselves.
Our Space Supports our Transformation
Are you on a journey to transform your life and BE the best you can be your best self, so you can DO the things that create the life you want to HAVE?
Transformative design can support that journey by providing space for learning, evolving and aligning your self with your higher purpose.
If you are interested in transforming yourself, I highly recommend Jim Fortin’s Transformational Coaching Program, called TCP. It has been an ongoing journey and learning experience for me. You can read about my first round of this program in my article, Lose Weight, Quit Smoking, Get Healthy and Peaceful Without Pain.
My philosophy of great Interior Design, which I call Aligned Design, considers three key factors; art, science and energy. The intersection of the three is where the magic happens.
The “Energy” is all about connection and is what I described above in ways our perfect space can support us.
Connecting to yourself, your story, who you want to be and what you need in your space to support that journey (transformative design). Connecting to the energy around you in and surrounding your home (Feng Shui) and to nature (biophilia). This connection creates another level of “feeling good” that is hard to put into words, but when you feel it in your space you will love that it is there.
The “Art”, is what most of us think of as “Interior Design”, and includes beautiful furnishings, decor, lighting, finishes, color and architectural details, all artfully arranged to look beautiful and function perfectly with our lifestyle.
The “Science”, is about using color science to take your color to the next level. Color has power and affects the way your design looks and how you feel. Science contributes knowledge and products for sustainable and eco-friendly designs that help you stay healthy and protect our planet.
It is important to consider all three together at the same time, as they all affect each other.
Your home is like your body, a system that works together. To be healthy, you need to consider all the parts as a whole.
Start with an Aligned Design plan that considers the art, science and energy of your home together, and then implement as time and money allows.
Go from being a Perfect Space Seeker to Loving Your Home!
An Aligned Design consultation to create a holistic plan is a great first step to map out your journey to a perfect space.
Imagine what that would feel like.
