Do you find it difficult picking new furniture or selecting items for your home? Perhaps you enjoy buying new things but regret your purchase once you bring it home. Whether you find yourself unsure or changing your mind last minute, these are all signs that it might simply just be a lack of understanding of your own design style.

As an interior design firm, one of our fundamental and ongoing tasks is to identify and produce the design style and aesthetic that is desired by our clients. While some of our new clients come to us with their style narrowed down to a tee, more often then not, they are completely  clueless.

While Pinterest and interior design magazines can be helpful, it can be pretty overwhelming to sift through hundreds of different design styles and pick just one. So to make things that little bit easier for you, we have complied a design style cheat that lists our top 10 favorite design styles below. All that’s left is for you to decide which one’s most you… and if you’re still stuck after that, we’re always here to help!
