How to Create the Perfect Look

When choosing decorative film for your Chicago home, it’s important to select a film that complements your interior and existing décor. Of course, you want the style or pattern to appeal to you personally. But you should also think critically about what would look best in your space. Here are some tips that can help you create the perfect look:

Avoid Clashing Colors & Patterns

Patterned and colored films are fun to work with, but they should be selected carefully. When choosing a patterned or solid color film, you’ll want to select a style that matches the existing color palette and ambiance of the room. If your home has a more contemporary vibe, opt for a modern-looking film. If you have a lot of vintage furniture or an older home, you’ll want to select a film that harmonizes with those features.

Start Small, then Work Your Way Up

If this is your first time using decorative film, it might be helpful to tackle a smaller project instead of a larger one. Instead of re-doing all of the walls in your bathroom, pick a single window or accent wall. That way, you can get an idea of how your home looks with decorative tinting. Once you’re more comfortable, you can move onto bigger projects.

Call in the Pros
