Words are leaving the pages of books and catching our eye in unexpected corners of our homes. Whether a single word, a sentence or a long story, text used in decoration expresses your outlook on life through its meaning. This is why it is important to choose carefully.
Using Words and Letters in Décor
Words and sentences, even whole passages, are stepping out of books and finding a place in décor. In textiles, pictures and neon lights, we embrace the power of words.
Which words should you choose?
Bring words that motivate you, energise you or connect with your emotions to corners of your home, walls and cushions, creating décor that makes you smile throughout the day.A short paragraph from a favourite story, a line of poetry or just a few key words can put your own signature on your living spaces.
How should you design the lettering?
When using words in décor, you can choose ready-made options such as wallpaper and printed textiles, or create a framed artwork in your own handwriting, make a mosaic wall panel, or commission a neon sign in your chosen wording and font.
A place for words
If you are adding words to your home, first decide where they belong. Placing them above the bed, in a music corner, in the kitchen or in the bathroom may change the words or message you choose. Make sure their meaning makes you feel good, smile and feel happy, because the power of words works in decoration too.
