A while back I was asked how one can use animals in Interior Design.For most people the first thing that comes to mind is how people kill animals and hung the skulls on the wall . So away from the tacky skulls on the wall and hello animal sophistication.Nature has always found a way of constantly inspiring us with great ideas.One of the recent trends is animal print.

It is best to use the animal pieces as accents.Having vibrant animal prints in small quantities on furniture,textiles or even simple table accessories could greatly liven up a room. Ottomans , throw pilllows and side chairs good pieces for animal print.

If you are looking for that one unique entertaining piece to complete your home and bring in life, calm and beauty, then an aquarium it is. Whether it's your bachelor pad,family home or apartment,everyone has something to gain from having an aquarium.Psychological studies show that watching fish in an aquarium makes you relax. In this day of technology, fast busy life, stressful jobs one needs something to go home and relax to every evening. The sound of running water has a wonderful calming effect. For this reason in most places where you have to wait like doctors’ offices, hospitals and hotels you will often find aquariums. One of the best world class restaurants Al mahara in The Burj al Arab has a huge aquarium.

One of the essential elements of interior design is colour and not just for its aesthetic value.Its important to know how to use colour to enhance light and create appropriate moods and energy in different spaces.  The worst part about it is that there are thousands of colours to chose from.It can be quite a task figuring out which colours go together let alone which to chose. There are basic rules in using colour in interior spaces but every space is different and  several other factors must be considered.Ever wondered why your mood changes when you go to certain interiors, why the neighbours house seems bigger yet they are the same size or why your house always feels cold even in the hottest seasons or maybe you find it hard to sleep... all these could be a result of the colours you have in your rooms..

I always dreamed of being a lawyer.With my love for languages history and business it totally made sense. I mean,what else could I possibly be? It had to be Corporate Lawyer or Company Secretary.Everyone cheered me on from friends to family and teachers, going on about my confidence,to how I loved arguing to my excellent public speaking skills just anything that made me feel like a born lawyer .
