How to Create Caribbean Home Decor - Interior Design Video Lecture - Interior

so Caribbean decor is actually something
that's really close to my heart because
I am Puerto Rican so from the islands
per se and color is a really big thing
for us we love color and a lot of people
from the Caribbean love color and so
infusing it into your home is really
easy just remember we're you know more
on the mainland here in America you do a
lot of the creams and topes and that's
what you find predominantly so just go a
little bit bolder so if you have an
accent chair make sure that it's a
really fun material make sure it's got a
bold texture to it and pattern wall
colors are really great you'll also find
a two-tone as' in the wall color so it's
not like perfect you know you'll have a
chair rail without the wood of just a
two-tone color on a wall so let's say
you have a really vibrant ocean blue on
the bottom and then on top you have like
a buttery yellow or white you find that
kind of look in the Caribbean quite a
bit also you have a lot of sheers and
whites for curtains not really heavy
material so you don't have like what you
would normally find you know in the
cooler climates you don't have a lot of
Velvets and things like that so just
make sure that the window treatment
fabric is really Airy it's really
breathable adding your pops of color
pottery we love pottery so pottery in
different places and just get really
ethnic with it so if you have something
that maybe you know you're really pulled
to a certain Island or something that's
really interesting to you bring that out
a little bit in the artwork make sure
that the woods feel very tribal and very
earthy no sleek and no lines that are
you know just very clean edge you want
to make sure that there's some knots and
some wormholes in the woods that you
choose so I think that if you stick with
some of those basics you'll have a home
that at the end of the day you'll feel
like you're on vacation
