Design
Staging should have impact at first sight and portray the home's theme. Inviting interiors that exceed expectations and inspire a buyer to say, “I could just move right in,” help buyers see themselves in their new home.
LIVING COLORS: NEW HUES BRING YOUR HOME TO LIFE
Black is back, white is right, and gray is just getting started.
CHANDELIER: CROWN JEWELS OF A HOME
Vintage crystal chandeliers may seem superfluous when staging your home, but, like all home staging, you only have one chance to make a first impression.
INSIDE STORY: LESS REALLY IS MORE
Balance, emphasis and harmony create attractive, inviting interiors that inspire a buyer to say, “I could just move right in.” They work, and make do-it-yourself staging easy and fun.
Decor
Elegance and simplicity are guiding principles in home staging. Remember the first rule of staging: anything that doesn’t add to the message, takes away. Everything you see in a staged home has a purpose, even objects that look random, like they were just left where they accidentally fell. Tell your home's story, with decorative accessories.

Display
Buyers are looking for a home that is worthy of them. The successful seller understands that the best way to do this is to exceed expectations, which delights buyers with the unexpected message that they are worthy of living in such a beautiful home. Successful staging presents the house, not the decor, as the product.

Restaraunteurs know an empty tabletop can be barren and uninviting, which does not enhance the dining experience, and, as any Realtor will tell you, certainly isn’t going to sell a house.
HOTELS USE WHITE LINENS, AND YOU SHOULD, TOO
It’s true; if you want to change the world, start with your bed.
PLANTS GIVE LIFE TO A HOME
Living plants are dirt-cheap, valuable assets that, like natural light, have subtle, yet powerfully positive effects on mood.
