Eclectic: Use different colors, patterns and textures to create a cohesive look.
Cottage: A casual, inviting environment makes cottage style a great choice for guest bedrooms. An easy way to add a cottage feel is to repurpose items.
Mediterranean: This style features bold color and texture to create a unique look. A hand-painted bed and whimsical chandelier would represent the region’s culture.
Romantic: Soft hues and delicate fabrics characterize this style. An ornate headboard, silhouette bed pillows and white draperies would bring a feminine touch.
Contemporary: Think sleek furniture, solid colors and chic furnishings.
Asian: Elements might include a warm color palette, nature-inspired furniture and Japanese shoji screens. All work to create a calm, serene feel.

Modern: Minimal design is the epitome of this style. Minimal furnishings and a neutral color palette enhance the look.
Old World: This style has a luxurious, regal look. Wooden ceiling beams, intricate wall sconces and textured walls are key design elements of the style.
