You can invite the same charm and noblesse into your own condo if you can recognize the focal point of your apartment and more importantly of each room. Soon you will also find your guests inclined to those beautiful windows, failing to notice the small crack over the wall. It is more than easy to find the focal point of a room. Find out how.
* Take a good look at the room and try to notice the biggest feature in the room that is attracting your attention. Anything from a stupendous archway or the wide windows can be the focal point. In most of the cases it will be the large architectural features that make the focal point.
* Sometimes a focal point could be those large sized furniture pieces like a leather sofa, a noteworthy dining table or a king size bed. Furnishings like the wall painting or an expensive carpet that attracts your attention for its fabulous color scheme can also be a focal point...
* You can find a focal point in a beautiful flower vase with lovely flowers kept on the center table.
* If you do not find anything of that sort in your room, make the wall the focal point. Paint the wall in any color that is in contrast with respect to the rest of the room. In this way that particular color will attract the attention of the onlookers.
