Designing my own room my own house has been one of my long time dream. Most of us also do? But I may be far from my goals yet, as early as now, I’m trying to keep all the ideas that I could get to make it possible. That is why I’m already collecting pins over Pinterest (Check out my collections), read magazines and sometimes attend seminars too.
Recently, I was able to attend an intimate gathering hosted by moodboardManila, where beauty, lifestyle and fashion sophisticate Cat Arambulo delighted all the guest with the intricacies of designing for clients and aligning it with the owner’s lifestyle and personal taste.
moodboardMANILA, a design agency that offers expert space consultancy services, set everything at La Creperie in Burgos Circle, BGC. I was able to get a preview of how the character & lifestyle of a person plays an important role into the overall design of his place.
I got a mixed idea on how I picture my future room. Part of me want a clean, white space, minimalist kind of room, while another part of me likes it busy and urban with dimming pin lights and big paintings in the wall. I also do like having that boho feel with textured sheets and greens with hammock in the middle. Another part of me likes having wooden furniture mixed with vintage items. I could be a difficult client I may say, but in general I guest I just want t mixed of everything that could satisfy my ever changing moods everyday.
“When you talk about your space, it’s all about you. It’s about your personality,” Cat shared, as she presented how an individual’s preference over fashion, colors, patterns, and elements bled into the aesthetics of his or her interior design.
Trends in Fashion & Design
As per Cat, fashion people are more inclined to creating beautiful spaces. “When you’re into fashion and you enjoy the details of a particular clothing, style, or trend, you can easily apply it to how u decorate your space,” she said.
As for trends Cat mentioned Copper/Rose Gold. Green and Marble are set to make waves in the design landscape this year.
“Marble is always in and so is mixing and matching textures, like corduroy mixed with leather,” Cat shared. “You can even do five different textures in one color. Put in something silky, something leathery, suede, something fluffy. It creates more drama and character that way.”
As part of the program, moodboardMANILA’s in-house interior designer Kristel Poyaoan treated the guests to a fun activity that determines the design style that works for them.
When asked about what it takes to come up with their unique designs, Kristel shared that familiarity with the client’s character is crucial. “You need to, at least, have a sense of what appeals to them, what they respond to, and why,” she explained.
To moodboardMANILA, crafting designs that exude a certain harmony that flows around the pieces curated to enliven a particular space is something of a priority.
At the end of the day, different styles work for different people. Having the services of the likes of moodboardMANILA could make everything easier of making a blank space to a work of art.
