Take pride in
adding a touch of pizzazz to those corners. Here are five great ways to jazz up
these oft-neglected nooks in your home…

Feng Shui expert,
Dr. Lizia Batla says, water symbolizes wealth and is a great feature in rooms. Taking
a cue from this globally-acknowledged science of well-being, why not place an
earthen, marble, wooden or the traditional Indian brass urli filled with water with perhaps a few petals or floating
candles to enliven a corner of your living room? It makes for a lovely
statement and adds some freshness to the interiors as well.
A corner can
easily be transformed into an intimate magical space. And especially so, if it
abuts a window. Use some mattresses, cushions and perhaps your favourite book, and
the corner becomes a favourite nook in your room!
Instead of bulky
sofas or bookcases, try going for space savers and customized lightweight
stuff. Like in the picture above, the corner has been utilized effectively, yet,
is not heavy on the eyes. With a hint of personalization and a cheerful colour
combination, the corner becomes your pride!
Indoor plants are
rejuvenating to look at, a healthy and environment-friendly initiative and a
very aesthetic way to decorate corners. In many homes, indoor plants are
relegated to just the window sills. But feel free with them and dot the home.
They make a statement anywhere! This place is the choicest location for the
morning tea. As Ar. Rupande Shah agrees, a good way to brighten up a dull
corner is through verdant foliage.
There is certain
minimally-invasive furniture like porch swings or patio chairs that can be
placed in the corner to spice the place up; simultaneously contributing to the
act of decluttering. A good option to soak up the heat on a Sunday winter
morning or reminisce on a rainy evening!
So, what’s your
mojo?
