Every space reflects not just the personality
of its occupant, but also tells an underlying story……
… I walked into the porch of a beautiful home
with a serene ambience, knocked on the door and was greeted by the house keeper
who welcomed me in and asked that I wait to meet with the boss, whom I was
going to be meeting with for the very first time. Looking around the living
room which was adorned in an impeccable array of white and beige colour schemes,
lovely pieces of artworks and ornaments delicately displayed all around the
house with so much detail and emphasis. The pieces of furniture looked Italian and
very exquisite, looking outdoor through the large expanse of glass windows was
a beautiful garden, it was breathe-taking and I could tell just by looking around
the magnificent house that the owner was really a man of class and good taste. I
anticipated meeting a man who would look clean and sleek. Then I heard a voice say
“hello” and I turned to respond “Good morning Sir, am here to see Mr Richard,
the owner of this home, I booked an appointment to see him here today”, “I am
Mr Richard” he said. I was completely taken aback as he was a sharp contrast
from the image the ambience of his home portrayed. He looked scruffy, unkempt…

So many times, we make an effort at telling
people about ourselves, our nature, etc. and trying in a lot of words, ways and
gestures to express who we really are, our likes, dislikes, what we are fond
of, our favourite habits, past times etc. All of these traits are always
expressed in our ‘styletitude’ (permit me to use that
word, if there’s any word like that) which simply means ‘our style attitude’.
Our style attitude or
Style personality is
always reflected in our style choices and preferences, which is a psychological
reflection of our personality.
Some people are introverts, hence tend toward conservative
styles, they also most often may prefer antique, traditional, vintage or old
school elements, pieces, attires etc. whilst others are extroverts and are very
adventurous, extreme and outgoing with their style choices. They tend to be very
trendy, love high fashion, contemporary modern styles and are in tune with
eclectic pieces and elements. Others love a mix of both worlds, a little of the
vintage and conservative touch alongside the trendy and modern style.

Our style sense, choices and personalities
most often reflect not just in our fashion style, but also in our interiors as
well. Interior design and décor projects aesthetic symmetry and customized
architecture and remodeling, realizing that these are facets through which a
company’s purpose can be symbolized or an individual’s personality expressed.
If you are a lover of bold, sharp colours,
shapes, patterns, bright lights, busy & occupied spaces with pieces placed
everywhere and little spare spaces, you love to occupy buildings within the
city centre with a lot of hussle and bustle, it’s a reflection that you are an
energetic, vibrant, busy minded, upwardly mobile and socially active person who
pays little attention to cleared out spaces. If you love serene, quiet environments,
the seaside, ancient pieces of arts, lover of nature, vegetation, beautiful
landscapes, sober colours and subtle shapes and patterns, then you are more of
a reflective, cool and calm person, meticulous and very detailed.
