Whether it is a modern and spacious home or a small townhouse we Indians are so much into decorating and celebrating stuff, that there seems no end to it. Be it an occasion or a small function, we have a habit of over- showing things to our friends and relatives. Now here again celebrations lead to decorations. No matter whatever it is;Diwali or a birthday party Indians want everything glittery and highly decorative. If we look a bit deeper into it then we will find out that not all Indian homes are cheap or down class looking in terms of decoration. I mean it might be cheap but won’t look cheap. How? Well, that’s what Indians are famous for. There are so many Indian homes that are small enough but can be decorated in easy and cheaper ways.
Talking about interior designing then we Indians do not hire interior designers for our homes. Actually, many of us don’t even know that they actually exist and the others don’t care. That’s just a joke. Here the interior designing department goes to the ladies of the house be it your mom, your sister, wife, sister-in-law or any female member of the house. Because simply what we think and believe it’s not men’s job. Ladies of the house are the one who maps up all the things from the curtain’s color to bedsheet.
With this new generation, Indians have also emerged like their sense of fashion or decoration has improved. Nowadays what we see is the integration of modernity and traditional ways of decorating homes. For example,if a kitchen is nowadays seen a smart kitchen with all the modern tools and appliances installed then the direction of the stove and color of the kitchen will be kept according to vastu shastra. This shows that Indians never forget their beliefs and their traditions in order to adopt modernity. And the combination of this two rocks are almost in every Indian home.

- Lighting is the key: I don’t think anyone would like to enter a house which either has dim lights or no light. Everyone loves the brightness and according to research, it is said that one who has dim lighting in their house tends to give a bad impression on guests.

- Show some creativity: if you are a child or a teenage then this is simply your thing. Try to show your creativeness on the wall like drawing a sketch and hanging it on the wall or making some hang able handmade toys or picture. And one of the best creativeness is done with the lights. Covering your wall with lights and paintings with some decorative plates and mugs makes your wall super chic and the best part is they are super cheap.
