We love large windows. Like a frame for your beautiful view, large windows don’t only showcase the beauty outside! Large windows are a great way to illuminate rooms with natural light, which is always flattering. Another reason we love large windows is how spacious and airy they can make a room feel. After years spent making the most of your homes, we’ve learned a thing or two about showcasing your large windows. Take a look below for more inspiration and to learn how you can make the most of them:

Limit distractions. Avoid cluttering your space or covering the windows with furniture whenever possible.

Make smart design decisions that give your floor-to-ceiling windows room to shine! If you want the atmosphere to feel warm and cozy, use warm colours such earthy tones such as beige, brown or red. You can also use wood as a main material.

Use neutrals for the interior and create a simple décor. Let your windows to do the work when it comes to spicing up your space!

Home Styling 101: How to Decorate a Room With a View

Staging by Urban Presentations’ Senior Property Stylist Roya Akbari.

If you are lucky enough to find yourself submerged in a dream view like this, you’ll want to do it justice! Here are our top tips on how to decorate a room with a view:

Less is more! Keeping your room design airy and uncomplicated is key. This way, the eye will be drawn to the beautiful view outside without distractions taking away from your incredible view. Here’s how to keep it simple and airy to let your view take centre stage:

  • Stick with an op​en layout and limit the use of furniture and accessories. This will keep the eye on the prize (AKA that gorgeous view) and away from any distractions.

  • Keep the view unobstructed. In line with having an open layout, it’s important to keep larger pieces out of the way when making the most of a room with a view.

  • Be neutral! Colour schemes play an important role in the design of a room with a view. Giving your view a neutral colour scheme gives the view a chance to be a true centrepiece. This will allow your surrounding furnishings to compliment, but not take away from, that gorgeous view.

5 Reasons Why Neutral Colour Schemes Are Always a Good Choice

Urban Presentations’ Senior Property Stylist Caroline Roussy’s recent project working with neutrals.

  1. Neutrals are not only reliable for use in decorating, they also play a critical role in providing visual relief, backdrops, and an overall calming atmosphere.

  2. Neutral colours highlight architectural elements, unlike bold colours that draw the eye away.

  3. Neutral colours are classic. This is one of the most appealing aspects of a neutral colour scheme; it never goes out of style!

  4. When your home decor is built around neutral colours, trendy, vibrant colours and prints can be seamlessly incorporated. This way, your home can remain on-trend as your personal taste changes and evolves over the years.

  5. Neutral colours are appropriate and effective in any style of space. Whether you prefer modern or old-world style, traditional or eclectic, contemporary or farmhouse – neutrals are versatile and reliable.
