"My personal style honestly changes on a daily basis. But I’m most drawn to contemporary pieces that have an eclectic, rustic, or coastal, vibe. I like mixing lots of textures, finishes and shapes together to create something that is interesting. I also like to keep the colours very neutral various materials in my designs to create depth and dimension.
The living room concept I've created below is light and airy and definitely pulls more from the coastal style. When doing a coastal design I like to add contrast by having some black in the space. Again, I put less emphasis on colour and focus more on adding texture and shape to a design. For instance, let’s talk about this table lamp for a sec - I could have added a simple white lamp, but instead I chose one with a unique shape that has a fun raised polka dot detail on it. It adds interest to the space while keeping the colour palette calm and neutral. And lastly, I always love to include some greenery in every space because it adds life and just the right amount of colour.
In the dining room I put together I love the texture of the cane-backed chairs and the unique shapes on the doors of the sideboard. I also mixed metals in the decor and the lighting for added interest. This space is a bit moody which I love for a dining area because it makes it feel more cozy and sophisticated.
When I was putting together this bedroom design I really noticed I had a more specific style than I thought LOL. I offset the whites and creams with black accents. I added a really unique bench that had texture and an art piece with lots of dimension. I love how this space came together."

Alyssa Wright - Certified Interior Decorator & eDesigner
"My personal style is a jumble of styles all rolled into one. I feel each style compliments each other nicely and works together to create a welcoming, neutral and grounded space. My style can be defined by a mixture of classic contemporary and rustic with influences of coastal and modern mediterranean elements. Essentially, I love the look of streamlined shapes in furniture with plenty of texture and character. My favourite elements in a space are linens, stone, vintage ceramics and pottery with a touch of natural woods and greenery!
In the living room that I put together using some of my favourite items from our shop, I was heavily influenced by Restoration Hardware and the luxe, neutral, earthy feeling that their company remains true to. I used a neutral colour palette and used contemporary shapes with the sofa, sideboard (which could be used as a media console), light fixture and side table. I love the coffee table as it brings in a rustic and reclaimed element to the space and contrasts the dark colours in the rest of the space! Also, the faux olive tree is one of my favourite elements because it brings in colour and an earthy element!
The dining room design I created has a more formal feeling - although it still feels inviting. I love the chairs that I chose for this space since they have a more classic feeling to them. I feel they contrast nicely with the more rustic, casual feel of the table, area rug, and sideboard. I also added pops of dark metals to complement the dark table in the light fixture and decor pieces. To finish it off I added a large centerpiece bowl on the table with the moss balls which add a natural element uniquely!
Continuing with a neutral and airy feel, the bedroom I created is just that. I used very muted tones in this space and mixed and matched the wood in the dresser, nightstand, and bed to create more visual interest. I kept the decor in this space minimal, but intentionally matched them to the dresser hardware and chose decor elements that replicated the dark tones. The art helps elevate the space while keeping the neutral, calming feeling."

Irah Acaban- Certified Interior Decorator & eDesigner
"The Midcentury Modern design style is all about clean, sleek lines (organic/geometric forms), contrasting materials, and subtle mixtures of patterns and textures. Some characteristics of Scandinavian design are minimalist aesthetics, wood furniture, wood accents, and statement lighting, which I've included in my living room design concept.
The midcentury modern elements I chose for this dining room design include a vintage rug and a sleek, dark-tinted sideboard with botanical line drawing art to be placed above. I also chose a clean-lined wood dining table and an upholstered cane dining chair to coordinate the dark finishes. Lastly, I selected a linear pendant above the dining table to create balance and enhance the modern design.
The bedroom I chose to design is a mix of mid-century modern and scandinavian styles. I used natural linen material for the bedding and a mix of patterns and textures to create depth within the design. Keeping in line with Scandinavian design, I went with a lighter wood tone nightstand and a minimalistic pendant with a small wooden accent to create repetition in the space and thus make it cohesive. Lastly, the dark-stained wooden chest drawer not only added interest to the space but also contrasted well with the other pieces."

Val Malnar- Certified Interior Decorator & Principle eDesigner
"I always say my style is Contemporary Coastal with a hint of Farmhouse. I love coastal colours along with the laid back, relaxed vibe. I also love clean lines and favour a minimalist approach to design that feels cozy and comfortable which is why you’ll often see contemporary and farmhouse elements in the designs I create.
This Contemporary Coastal living room embodies my favourite way to decorate a space. A strong focus on comfort is demonstrated by the oversized sofa in an easy to clean crypton fabric and lots of pillows to cuddle/lounge with. I’ve also used warm wood toned tables and decor to bring coziness to the design and a muted, neutral colour palette with blue accents to emulate the colours you’d see at the beach on a hot, sunny day.
This Contemporary Coastal dining room focuses on texture and finishes. Light wood tones, rope-backed chairs and cane details are the essence of this coastal design. While the smooth finishes of an antique brass chandelier, limestone bowl and glass vase bring a bit of modernism for a more contemporary feel. And for a little bit of life and farmhouse comfort, an art print of a misty forest and added greenery complete the space.
Admittedly, this Coastal Contemporary bedroom doesn’t include the “hint of Farmhouse” I typically like to use in my designs, but I love it just the same. I’ve used a sandy colour palette with a hint of blue and added rattan lamps and beach art to keep up with the coastal vibe.”
