  2. TUSCAN INTERIOR DESIGN 

It draws inspiration from old rustic villages in Italy. It features a rustic, sunbaked look characterized by tone patios; sturdy furnishings with elegant iron accents; terra cotta tiles; textured wall finishes; detailed murals. The colour palette leans heavily on earthy, unpretentious hues evocative of a Tuscan hillside. The floor should be terracotta tiles, stone with mosaic inlay and worn wood covered with antique rugs. 







The accents should be wrought-iron accessories like candle sconces and light fixtures can reinforce the rustic theme.

  3. ARABIAN INTERIOR DESIGN

 It consists of Ornate print, silk fabrics in extravagant colours, utilizing a vast variety of accent pillows, Persian rugs, using valances for window treatments and lamp shades.










  4. SHAKER INTERIOR DESIGN

 Shaker are a religious sect that originated in England in the 1700’s. today they are mostly known for their cultural contribution (especially their style of music and furniture). A neutral color palette is the key. Stick to muted tones like oatmeal,off white, grays, and light browns. Bright and bold colours do not work. Bare untreated wood floors work 

best. Simple design like ladder-backed for chairs.






For the fabrics, go for natural materials like wool, cotton and silk for your window treatments or throws. 

  5. JAPANAESE INTERIOR DESIGN 

It inspires the simplistic, natural essence found in minimalist architecture and Zen design. Bare essential furnishings keep the living spaces from feeling cramped or cluttered, letting the beauty of its wood and colour elements reflect and bounce natural light.sliding doors allow the exterior and interior of Japanese lofts to organically meld into the other. 







Negative space is valued highly in creating a sense of clarity and freedom within the style inspired home. 


  6. INDUSTRIAL INTERIOR DESIGN 

Industrial interior design is popular for decorating lofts and old buildings converted into living spaces, although it can be used for traditional apartments and houses too. What you need for this style is to create an illusion of rough surfaces and materials that suggest an industrial past. Your color palette should steer clear of bright, bold colors; instead you should look for warm, neutral tones to fill your space. Shades and tones of gray work well when mixed with white to add a crisp, clean look. Exposed bricks, steel beams or columns, exposed concrete, unfinished wood, and stainless steel work well for this style. Walls should also incorporate large pieces of art. The most used floor option for an industrial style is polished concrete. 












It can be as rough and patchy as you want it to be. Timber or stone flooring are also good finishes that will help you achieve the industrial look.You should find big comfortable sofas and large scatter cushions to work alongside ‘industrial’ artwork and accent pieces. Plants will also inject life and color into any environment so look for a few really great large leaf plants and some significant pots to house them. Free standing floor lamps in a metal finish are a great source of lighting for this look.   

  7. SOUTHWESTERN INTERIOR DESIGN

 Southwestern interior design mainly captures the environment and heritage of the New Mexico and Arizona areas. Natural elements and colors and accents inspired by the Spaniards, Mexicans and Native American Indians are distinctive of Southwestern interior design. Flat roofs, open floor plans and extensive courtyards and gardens are hallmarks of a Southwestern home. For the colours, Earthy tones in terra cotta, brown, tan, cream and white set the stage for the bright pops of color brought in through plants and Native American Indian-inspired accents and textiles. furniture Should be simple, unpretentious and made from natural elements. Rough-hewn wood with decorative carvings, natural textile coverings and soft leather are all acceptable choices. Southwestern interior design generally uses adobe exteriors, and interior walls are roughly plastered over the adobe. 







 



Stucco or smooth stone can be used in its place. Hand-painted tiles lend color and warmth to otherwise drab walls, and are frequently used to cover kitchen back-splashes or as individual accents throughout the house. Terracotta tiles, usually honey-colored, are the most common flooring material in Southwestern decorating. Use natural accents to decorate your home. 

  8. VINTAGE INTERIOR DESIGN  

Vintage interior design is all about creating a sense of charm and history through old eclectic pieces. By adding antiques, collectibles, flea market finds, and estate sale items you can develop a vintage atmosphere. 







Vintage interior design is about embracing the things of the past and enjoying them just as they are by repairing or refinishing them. Excellent places for sourcing vintage finds include flea markets, estate sales, salvage shops, consignment shops, and antique stores. 

  9. SPANISH INTERIOR DESIGN 

Spanish interior design is a vibrant, colorful Mediterranean style that brings to mind rustic villas, sunny patios and an old-fashioned, solid sense of family. Walls generally finished with a smooth-touch stucco texture or a faux finish–a paint technique where brush strokes, sponge patterns or varying shades of the same color are used to add dimension. Typical colors include Mediterranean-influenced warm and cool shades and earth tones such as taupe, burnt orange, chocolate brown, indigo blue, deep red and mustard yellow. The most traditional flooring choice in a Spanish-style home is hardwood, though budget-conscious designers can choose alternative flooring options such as slate, a heavy, matte-finished ceramic or terracotta tile with dark grout. 






Spanish interior design accessories include fabrics, wrought iron and pottery. Fabrics can be incorporated into the design with woven cotton throw rugs and window treatments made of cotton in muted colors. Wrought-iron rods can be used to hang window treatments.  


  10. FRENCH COUNTRY INTERIOR DESIGN

French Country interior design is rustic, old-world, and welcoming. Wood beams, furniture with delicate, carved details, stone or brick floors covered with rugs, and fireplaces are prominent features. Copper pots, baskets, iron candle holders, pottery, colorful linens, old paintings, and clear glass vases are common accessory choices. 










You may also see window boxes containing clay pots of geraniums and lavender on window sills.
