- Leather sofas can be expensive, don't hold accessories well, and can be uncomfortable due to poor breathability and susceptibility to scratches.
- When decorating a space with a lot of wood elements, incorporate contrasting colors, rugs, and reflective elements to break up the monotony and add visual interest.
- Including cultural artifacts in your home through accessories like vases, wall hangings, throw pillows, and family photos can add a personal touch without overwhelming the space.
