Décor For Him And Her – Enjoy Your Home

Home should be a place where anyone who lives there feels great. This is why it needs to be decorated to suit Him and Her.

After Him and Her, in love and inseparable, decide to live together, many problems might arise in decorating and equipping their joint habitat.

Since she was a little girl, she has known what her apartment would look like, which she would share with Mr. Right, and he still regrets not having his bachelor lair where he did not have to put down the toilet seat and where his dirty laundry could freely lay wherever he wanted.

She wants their apartment to be “chic” and her girl friends to admire it, while he is afraid of lace and flowers and fears that he will not be able to invite his friends over to such a decorated place without feeling ashamed.

American interior, furniture and fabric designer Joe Ruggiero, often helps couples with this delicate stage of nesting, Dezignare writes.

Compromise is the key to success

- I have saved many relationships by finding common ground and compromise. When a joint home is created, it is necessary to point out both personalities and both styles in interior design – Joe Ruggiero believes.

A combination of tough, male fabrics like tweed or flannel with stripes or chequered patterns can be combined with effeminate furniture or pillows. The result is a real “unisex” impression.

Such materials are long-lasting and are not dull even after a long time. Also, they are pleasant for Him and Her equally. Young ladies who do not know which patterns are “manly” should look for them on His umbrella, sweaters or socks, Ruggiero advises.

Elegantly male

Furniture covers are the most noticeable part of the living room, therefore caution is necessary while decorating it. Ruggiero advises to avoid décor that is too modern. The best style is a combination of what is classic and modern, because it is the winning and long-lasting combination. Such furniture includes sofas and armchairs of more structural silhouettes that appeal to Him, as well as the softness and details, which appeals to Her.

Elegant furniture pieces that are more feminine can be covered in manly material and be adjusted to him.

Still, if a couple cannot harmonise and agree to compromise, Ruggiero advises to create His and Hers space. Both have their own corner where they can enjoy their own hobbies and have a break from all the daily challenges.
