Respect the Spaciousness of a Space

I have been a lover of beauty in all and everything around and I cannot live without decorating. Even if I have to live in a space with one floor mattress, in a shared room, for 2 weeks, I will decorate it. For me it does not matter if the space is owned or rented. If I am living in it, it is loved, transformed and decorated creatively for those moments.

Home is a space which must be enriching and rejuvenating. A space from which we do not get bored or want a break from. That is possible only if we transform the space into a loving, meditative buddha-field.

When it comes to decorating home, there are two aspects to it 

1. Decorating the space with objects (furniture, furnishing, art, plants, etc.)

2. Transforming the space with vibration of love, soothing sounds, fragrance, laughter, creativity. No TV, No unwanted noise, no clutter, no unnecessary objects, etc.

In the next few posts I will share my knowledge and tips for both. Since I have also worked as a professional photographer and a painter, I tend to use the learnings from both these artistic pursuits in Tattva Home Harmony.

Tips on decorating the space with Objects:

1. Respecting the spaciousness of the space

It is important to remember that every object has energy and we must add objects to our space carefully and not just because we go shopping a lot.

The word 'Room' simply means 'Space'. If we fill the room with objects completely, we cannot survive. Keeping that in mind, the objects (furniture or furnishing) must be added so it makes the space look more spacious and not cluttered. 

Some examples of the spaces decorated by me:

Tip on making the space look more spacious by adding an object:

I have learnt this particular tip from photography. Our eyes have a tendency to see the objects and not space as is. In order for us to experience the complete space, add an object like a large plant, or colorful flowers or anything to the end of a large empty space. If we see an object at the very end of a large space, we see the entire space with it compared to when not adding any object. This will make the space look and feel bigger even after adding the object.

For example, in the above pic you are bound to see the orange ottoman from the other end of the space too.

And the Christmas tree while moving your eyes from the front of the space to the back.
