Establishing your spot in your home is more than just an unconscious ritual; it is the act of dropping anchor amid an environment that is at once familiar, personal and inspiring. Creating your perfect nook is therefore an exercise in channeling all the ideas, thoughts and impressions, which are undeniably you, into a harmonious and coherent spatial design. Each nook presents thus its own mood and character, drawn from your innermost sensibilities and aesthetic preferences. If it is elegance that you seek to capture and crystallize, then here are fifteen uber-stylish nook ideas to inspire you.
Whether carving out your spot amid an open-planned space or looking to put a residual space to use, infuse your nook with a hint of sophistication through delicate scale and motifs, restrained color palettes and generous strokes. The cleaner your lines and layout, the more uncluttered and elegant your impressions are sure to be. Infact, when creating graceful nooks, co-ordination is key in order to minimize on visual weight and maximize on effect.
Another handy tip is to offer a clear, uninterrupted background to your composition, in order to weave the space together. This surface can be accessorized with coordinated wallpaper or art to further integrate it with your palette of nook ideas.
