MOST homeowners
today have a sense of
style and already know
what they like.

Often, when they come to
Chalsi Goetz at Golden
Interiors, all they need is a lit-
ue guidance.

“Tdecorate to comple-
ment their decor .., sometimes
just having a fresh eye makes a
big difference. We'll move the
furniture and re-hang the pic-
tures, and thar maybe is all it
needs.”

And having thar fresh (and
professional) cye, is usually a
wise investment.

“There is such a push out

there to do it yourself,” savs
Goetz.

Which is OK. But without
knowledge of all the difterent
elements of design, home-
owners often find themselves
running inte trouble.

“When you have someone
who is good at it, there is a
world of possibilities.”

Golden Interior's range of

services runs “the whole
gamut. From recovering a
chair to a $250,000 renova-
tion.” Goetz will locate sup-
pliers and contractors, buy
fabric, furniture and art work,
and provide information
about carpets, window cover-
ings and wall treatments.

lots to think about. Is your
furniture prone to fading? You
may need to think about what
king of lining you choose. Do
you have pets who can get
tangled in puddled drapery? A
shorter style would be more
appropriate.

“These days we are work-
ing with peuple’s lifestyles.
What we recommend may not
necessarily be the trend, but
what's practical.”

Still, i¢’s not bard to stay
within current trends. There's
ints to choose from in the [at-
est selection of styles and fab-
rics.

Looks that will sake vou
into the next millennium can
be described in two words,
says Goetz: elegant simplicity.

Hard window coverings
such as venetian and vertical

‘ing design help from a pr

blinds are a thing of the past;
instead, look for the softness
and warmth of drapery, sheers
and valences. But not pouts,
she warns. Drapery treatments
should be sophisticated and
tailored to reflect the client’s
personal style.

Sheer fabrics now come in
a range of colors and patterns:
stripes, stars, animal prints and
metallics, to name just a few.
Other fabric Patterns are
clearer, brighter and textured.

Animal print: accents are
hor, savs Goetz; witiie crayon-
colored accents can updare a
neutral or natural decor.

A few colors to look for in
1998: red, celadon, char-
treuse, plum, yellow, clay and
raisin.

Goer has been a designer
for more than 15 years.

THE colors you choose tos
your home may have more
imrict than you realize.

According to research,
most of us have a behavicral
response to color which is
inherited and automatic.

For example, the color
red is a good choice for the
dining room — it raises
blood pressure and stimu-
lates appetite.

Blue, one of the most
popular colors for decorat-
ing, has a calming effect;

while green creates a sense
of comfurt and quietness.

So before vou select col-
ors for the rooms in your
home, consider their pur-
pose. Is Chiiese red the best
choice for the bedroom?
Does Caribbean pink work
in the den?

Perhaps caimer colors
are a better choice for the
rooms you relax or concen-
trate in,

Don’t be afraid of color,
but choose it with care.
