How to choose a style for your room

  • Start with what stays. Floors, windows, big furniture and the light in the room limit which styles will look natural. Decoratly keeps your real walls, windows and proportions, so you see a style working with your room, not a stock photo.
  • Pick two or three, not one. Most people like elements from several styles. Try your top picks on the same photo and compare them side by side.
  • Match the style to how you live. A calm Japandi bedroom and a bold maximalist living room can both be right, for different rooms.
  • Use the quiz if you are stuck. The free interior design style quiz matches ten quick answers to a style, with no email.

Interior design styles: FAQ

What are the main interior design styles?

The most searched are Scandinavian, Japandi, minimalist, modern, contemporary, mid-century modern, industrial, farmhouse, rustic, coastal, boho, eclectic, transitional, art deco, glam and shabby chic. The table above compares them and links to a guide for each.

How do I find my interior design style?

Look at which rooms you save or feel calm in, and note the colors, materials and shapes they share. Or take the free interior design style quiz, which matches ten quick answers to a style with no email required.

What is the difference between modern and contemporary design?

Modern refers to a specific look rooted in early to mid 20th century design: clean lines, honest materials and function first. Contemporary means whatever is current, so it changes over time.

Yes. Upload a photo of your room to Decoratly and see it restyled in about 30 seconds, with your walls, windows and proportions kept. You get 1 free design in 6 starter styles with no signup and no card, and free results are watermarked. All 75+ styles are part of Pro.

Can I mix styles in one home?

Yes. Most good homes do. A shared palette, consistent flooring and a few repeated materials make different styles feel like one home.
