Applying your favourite colour is the easiest way to give a personal touch to a room. You can express your creativity to suit your character while improving the aesthetics. You can do this through wall paint, wallpaper, or decorative accessories. To make a monotonous room look more attractive, you can also mix and match colours with the help of a colour card. Careful planning will prevent undesired outcomes such as odd combination of colours.
Furniture

Your choice of furniture can be a distinctive personal touch in a room. There are various unique pieces of furniture that can become the main attraction in your room, and it can surely be suited to your characteristic. For example, if you like a simple and chic style, you can choose Scandinavian furniture. In contrast, if you fancy something elegant, classic designer furniture or modern furniture can be your choice. You can also order a customised furniture to create the look that is not only functional but also goes well with your preference.
Focal Point

When you are decorating your room, don’t forget to present a focal point—an area that attracts attention for its uniqueness. A focal point can be a feature wall, a set of furniture in your living room, or even a patterned carpet in the middle of a plain room. Adding a personal touch through the focal point can also be tailored to your hobby. For example, if you play music, you can adorn the room with your beloved guitar or framed record album covers of your favourite musician.
Memorabilia

Displaying your family photo is a simple way to give a personal touch to a room. Family trip photos and other photos that are memorable for you and your family will conjure up a special ambience in the room.
Those memories can bring warmth to your home. The photo frames can also be matched to the room’s interior design. The easier way is by choosing a simple design frame in white, black, or a combination of patterns to display your photos.
A touch of art

If you are a big fan of art, either it’s a painting, sculpture, or any other forms, your favourite artwork can be personalised into a room decoration. Setting the artwork that you admire as a part of your home decoration can bring you a sense of satisfaction and feel more comfortable at home. A touch of art may also bring prestige for homeowners, and it distinguishes your home from others’.
