Homestyle tips when decorating a condo with a killer view
Investing in real estate with epic views like the property below requires some extra special home furnishing and décor planning. When you pay for a great view, you want to enjoy it, so make sure to choose pieces that avoid competing with the landscape or skyline. Choose transparent, airy chandeliers & recessed lighting, and install low-profile furnishings to keep the scenery and sky unobstructed. Then add neutral and organic accents to complete your relaxed and luxury style.

Home decorating tips to make a space feel spacious and bright.
Urban city life can sometimes mean smaller homes or a townhome. To make your space feel large and open, try these designer ideas:
- Keep upholstered furniture light, adding color with pillows and greenery.
- Add wood and textured accents to warm up the mood.
- If the floors are dark, use soft area rugs to add style (bonus: this will buffer those sound echoes caused by non-carpeted flooring).
- Limit your window treatments to simple shades that invite the natural light in.
