Think you know your interior design style? You might actually be surprised...

Good morning home lovers,

Ever thought about why your home doesn’t fit neatly into one aesthetic?

One of the first things designers notice is that most people aren’t just one style — they’re a mix.

You might love clean lines and soft curves → Modern Organic/Soft Contemporary

Warm woods and minimal palettes → Japandi / Warm Minimalism

Classic silhouettes and modern simplicity → Modern Classic/Transitional

Individually, each choice feels right…

But when you can’t see everything together visually, it’s hard to understand what your true aesthetic actually looks like as a whole.

That’s why rooms often feel “almost right” — close, but not completely cohesive.

Here’s how designers solve this problem ↓

And if you want the same design clarity for your home, try our tool:

1. We look at shapes you repeat

Your eye leans toward certain silhouettes even before you notice it.

• Curved sofas, rounded tables, arches → softness, flow, organic

• Straight-lined sofas, angular chairs → modern, minimal, architectural

• Organic, sculpted forms → earthy, artistic, nature-inspired

2. We pay attention to your material habits

• Linen, bouclé, soft cottons → comfort, warmth, relaxed minimalism

• Oak, ash, unfinished woods→ organic calm, Japandi influence

• Matte ceramics, plaster, clay → earthy, handmade textures

• Brass, aged metals, marble→ quiet luxury, modern classic

• Glass, polished stone, chrome→ modern simplicity and clarity

3. We listen for the feeling you want to live in

The emotions you describe translate directly into style direction, even if you don’t use design terms.

• Calm: Japandi, Warm Minimalism

• Airy: Scandinavian, Light Contemporary

• Warm + inviting: Modern Organic

• Grounded: Natural Modern

• Elegant: Modern Classic, Quiet Luxury

4. We look at how your pieces relate to each other

A room feels cohesive when the shapes, colors, and materials you choose naturally support one another. Cohesion comes from alignment, not matching.

• Shapes: curves with curves feel harmonious; curves with sharp angles feel tense

• Materials: mixing wood, ceramic, fabric, metal = balanced; too much of one = heavy

• Scale: your rug and furniture need to be sized in harmony so the space feels balanced.

When those elements feel disconnected, the whole space can feel a little “off,” even if each item is beautiful on its own.

5. We look at what you avoid

Surprisingly, what you consistently reject is just as important as what you love.

If you skip glossy finishes, bold colors, ultra-minimal pieces, or heavy patterns, that tells us exactly what doesn’t belong in your space — and helps define what truly does.

So…what’s your real interior design style?

Most people realize they’re not the label they’ve been using — they’re a combination of consistent preferences that have never been seen together in one clear vision.

You’re not “eclectic.” You just haven’t seen your true style in one place yet…until now.
