Find Your Design Style
Choose One of These 8 Home Photos to Find Your Signature Look
How do you define your style? This is a question I ask every client, and I often get suprising answers. Most clients identify a particular style as their favorite, but their current interior says otherwise. Others give me a puzzled look and return the question to me, "What do you think is my style?" There are a number of ways to pinpoint your personal style, one easy way is to browse through images saved in your Houzz ideabooks.
Since I began writing for Houzz, I've directed potential clients to the site to create ideabooks that display their design aesthetic. I review them, find common threads throughout their chosen images and quickly move forward in designing a space they will love. What's your design style? Take a look at these 8 white rooms to find out.

Casual: Wash and wear not only appeals to your fashion aesthetic, it is also symbolic of how you live in your space. Easy-care fabrics drape your windows and furniture, keeping the maintenance of your home fuss-free and fabulous.
Cool: Creating a home that is youthful and unpretentious is important to you. Sturdy furnishings with a hint of an industrial vibe make your space just as suitable for a teen hangout or Saturday morning coffee with your girlfriends.
Contemporary: Always on the cutting edge of design, you lean toward the best the market has to offer, from Calacatta marble waterfall countertops to the timeless trend of mid-century furnishings — updated in a polished white finish of course.
Country: Sweet nostalgia runs rampant in your home with items both familiar and unfamiliar to your past. You have an appreciation for time-worn objects and find beauty even in its decay.
Colonial: Steeped in tradition, you maintain the original history of your home even if it means replacing a missing crystal doorknob with one you found at an antique salvage yard. Elements such as a farmhouse sink and cup pulls on cabinetry makes your home feel time-honored and authentic.
Clean: Stylish simplicity is the focus when decorating your home. Only the necessary essentials find a place under your roof, but it doesn't mean that they are void of form and artistic interest.
Eclectic Accessories And Decor
Cultural: You have an appreciation of worldly travel and foreign customs. Whether you collect items from your personal travels or from those of someone else, your treasured possessions find a prominent place in your home.
