Insider Advice
Transform your home in a weekend
After a long winter, many of us are tired of staring at the same four walls. Refreshing your space doesn’t have to take a lot of time. Every day, Bianca Zorzi and her Staging and Styling team transform spaces by layering and refreshing what’s already there. Follow their tips to give any room in your home a completely new look this weekend.
Reduce, Rearrange, and Re-use Before you make any new purchases, shop your house. Collect all accessories you have in one place, like your dining room table, and create your ‘store.’ This will help you purge and declutter at the same time. Vases, jars, pillows, artwork and books are all great items for breathing new life into another space. A decorative bowl from the kitchen can add a sense of variety to your living room. A smooth stone found on the beach can add visual interest to a stack of books. From there, rearrange your accessories into groupings or vignettes. Follow the rule of threes: odd numbers of differently sized objects create the most dynamic arrangements. Start with larger pieces first and then fill in the gaps with smaller objects. Keep in mind size, shape and depth to achieve an effect that is thoughtful and curated.
