Transform Your Home into a Luxury Oasis

With decades of experience creating luxurious spaces for our clients, we bring you our best tips on creating a luxurious boutique hotel atmosphere in your own home! As an interior design firm specializing in high-end spaces, we have plenty of tips for making any room feel lavish, opulent, and travel-inspired.

It all starts with the lighting - install dimmers throughout to control the mood and ambiance. Use strategically placed lamps to create a soft glow during the evenings. Hang a sparkling chandelier as a statement piece to evoke luxury. Next focus on plush textures such as velvet upholstery, silk pillows, and cozy throw blankets to up the coziness factor. Introduce ornate touches like gilded mirrors, carved wooden furnishings, marble tabletops, and abstract metal sculptures reminiscent of a worldly art collection.

Fragrance can transport you, so take inspiration from exclusive hotels and incorporate signature scents. Try gentle wafts of lemon verbena, refreshing eucalyptus, or soothing lavender to relax the senses. For evenings, go for richer notes like sandalwood, amber and soft florals. Use scented candles, incense sticks, essential oil diffusers, or fresh flowers to permeate the space.

Don’t be afraid of bold color palettes and patterns to emulate an eclectic boutique aesthetic. Jewel-toned velvets, exotic wallpaper prints, Moroccan-inspired tiles, and Turkish kilim rugs add loads of character. Mix and match styles from different eras and cultures for lots of visual interest while maintaining a refined look. Add a touch of sparkle with metallic accents and crystal embellishments.

Curate your own “art gallery” by displaying photography and paintings from your travels on the walls. Hang interesting objects like masks, fans, or musical instruments collected from all over to inspire conversation amongst guests. Place fresh flowers everywhere - exotic orchids or elegant roses placed in decorative vases transport you.

Pay attention to exclusive extras that high-end hotels provide, like luxury bedding, high-end bath products, Nespresso machines, and well-stocked minibars. Provide magazine spreads showcasing your interior work for visitors to flip through. Let us know if you have any requests for creating luxury spaces by booking a consultation.
