Eclectic Interior Design Style

A creative individual, you connect with nature and people equally. You could step outside in a variety of environments and feel completely comfortable in each one. You express yourself in many ways and easily attract others. You know how to live in the moment and take advantage of spontaneous opportunities. You see potential and life in everything. You have many interests and probably always are working on some new hobby. You are open and embracing and mixing colors and patterns are no big deal to you.

Design-wise, you probably find it hard to focus on one cohesive design that incorporates all your interests. Your home is probably always messy and cluttered. You tend to work all over the house without a designated space to create. You want your awesome finds on display, but they often get lost in all your stuff. You don’t want your home to be boring and feel constricted with too much organization.

Fun Facts:

The Eclectic interior design style refers to furniture, decor and color that is hugely diverse yet mixed together within a space. This style emerged from an architectural style that flourished in the 19th and 20th centuries, referring to traditional motifs, styles and ornaments that originated from other cultures. The combination of different styles, colors and patterns is what makes eclectic interior design today.
