In the last 50 years, Home Décor has evolved with the rise of the metropolises. Apartments are getting smaller and more expensive, but the human need for a space that feels like home is ever present. Whether you are a young college student moving into the big city of your dreams, or a young professional trying to liven up a starter apartment- these are the 5 must haves as a new apartment owner:
- Candles/ Diffusers
Coming home after a busy day to no natural light and limited ventilation can give anyone the blues. A simple scented candle or diffuser can help keep your place feeling fresh. Try unique blends like the warm Ebene Fume Candle by Tom ford, or the gorgeous rose shaped ceramic diffuser in a refreshing Lime Basil by Rococo™ for an aromatic home.
- Flowers
The concrete jungle may be where dreams are made of, but humans crave a slice of nature. The easiest way to add life back to cold apartments is to bring home some lovely flowers, City life can make regular upkeep and refreshing your florals a hassle, so opt for luxurious everlasting arrangements from Rococo™ for flowers that last for years.
- Art
Whether you are a fan of realism, or a lover of the modern- having at least one work of art is a simple way to add personality to your space. Buy something that truly speaks to you as this is a great opportunity to invest in your future, way to support artists, and something that could be passed on as a future heirloom. Visit local galleries, meet new people, and if you are up for something truly personal to you, grab a canvas and make your own!
- Coffee Table
Next on the list is the most versatile and underrated piece of furniture. No matter how small or big your apartment, you can always find the right coffee table to truly elevate your living room. Display your current reads, small desk arrangements like La Calice from Rococo™ and your Nan’s signature candy dish. A coffee table is THE symbol to show the world you have entered adulthood. The best part? It’s a small enough piece of furniture that you can store and carry with you no matter where you move.
- Picture Frames
Life is made worth living and measured in all the relationships we have with people. Pictures are the evidence of a life well lived, so bring your phone’s photo gallery to life with your own collages or beautiful prints in fun frames to hang on your well, or display on your desk. For a frame that truly embodies the spirit of beauty and forever, bring home Rococo’s Le Mémoire. Forever in a frame, this unique is made with 18 forever roses and available in 10 vibrant colours to match any colour palette.
