In order to truly capture the essence of a room, you need to have a focal point. A focal point should immediately grab the attention of anyone that walks into the room and can range from a captivating piece of artwork to a fireplace mantel with ornate detailing. Houzz shares some inspirational ideas for picking a room’s focal point:

  • Mirrors have long been used to create the illusion of a larger space, and they also work incredibly well as focal point as well. Consider hanging a decorative mirror over a fireplace or headboard to immediately direct eyes to this space.
  • For a more neutrally toned room, incorporating a bright, patterned area rug is sure to capture anyone’s attention and add a pop of color.
  • Shelving is an excellent way to divide up a space, and including an unusual bookcase in a room can provide a nice, decorative accent while accomplishing a task.
  • A one-of-a-kind heirloom coffee table piece can help to add character to any living room, and the focal point can be further highlighted by displaying a centerpiece.
