As interior designer there is certain level of obsession in the appreciation and creation of beauty and how this can be expressed in the interiors of homes.
For me this is not a shallow aspiration.
Beauty can aim to have qualities that go beyond a self interest or narcissistic approaches.
Beauty can be created as the fulfillment of a need for achieving harmony, balance and respect for others’ comfort and wellbeing not just visually but physically.
In this sense every home should have the responsibility to provide to its occupants moments of happiness, serenity and comfort.
This beauty can be achieved in many ways from the use of humble materials up to the most exclusive and expensive products.
Whatever the kind of beauty you have created in your house or flat you can still go to the next level so to have what we may define as the perfect home, a truly perfect home where your manners and behavior are completely aligned with the beauty you are surrounded by.
A refined home
Refinement implies taste, culture, etiquette, respect, discretion and of course elegance.
In every room of your home your level of refinement can be tested but there are there elements in special that will express it clear as crystal:
_How you dress your dining table
_How fragrant is your home
_And of course how well equipped is you bar
I will be talking in detail about every one of these three aspects of a refined home in the next posts.
You will see how connected they are to a deep understanding of a well designed home, to its interiors and to the understanding and enjoyment of life when shared with others in your house.
