Styling Items: Decorative Pieces for Interior Design Projects in Hospitality, Commercial, and Residential Spaces

At Fringe Interior, we understand that the right styling items can elevate any interior project, bringing character, warmth, and a polished look. From hospitality and commercial spaces to residential interiors, styling items significantly create a cohesive, inviting atmosphere. Styling items in diverse styles, materials, and forms complements various design themes, from contemporary and Scandinavian to rustic and industrial.

Types of Styling Items: Artwork, Sculptures, Mirrors, Plants, Cushions, Decorative Trays, Books, and Vases

Artwork and Wall Decor

Artwork is a core styling element that adds personality and a focal point to any space. Wall art, framed prints, canvases, and tapestries can be customised to reflect the interior’s theme, from modern abstract prints in a commercial lobby to classic portraits in a luxury hotel suite. Art contributes to visual interest and sets the mood, often forming the centrepiece of a design scheme.

  • For Contemporary Spaces: Abstract paintings, line art, and geometric prints work well, adding a modern edge.

  • For Traditional or Classic Spaces: Framed landscapes, vintage prints, and gallery walls bring sophistication and charm.

Sculptures and Figurines

Sculptures and figurines offer a unique, three-dimensional way to style surfaces and corners, adding texture and visual interest. These items are everyday in hotel lobbies, commercial reception areas, and even residential living rooms. They range from sleek, minimalist designs to intricate, ornate pieces, fitting a variety of aesthetics.

  • For Minimalist and Scandinavian Styles, Choose sculptures with clean lines and muted tones.

  • For Eclectic or Bohemian Styles: Look for figurines with a natural or cultural touch, such as wooden or clay pieces.

Mirrors

Mirrors are versatile styling items that add depth, light, and a sense of spaciousness. In addition to their functional role, mirrors enhance decor and act as decorative accents. Large mirrors make smaller spaces appear more open, while smaller decorative mirrors add visual charm in entryways, lobbies, or above console tables.

  • For Contemporary Interiors: Go for frameless or geometric-shaped mirrors with metallic accents.

  • For Industrial or Rustic Spaces, Choose mirrors with metal frames in black or bronze.

Plants and Greenery

Plants bring a refreshing, natural element to interiors, adding life and colour. Popular in both residential and commercial projects, indoor plants can soften harsh lines, provide natural texture, and contribute to a welcoming environment. They range from tall potted plants for floor decor to small succulents and tabletop arrangements.

  • For Scandinavian and Eco-Friendly Spaces: Use a variety of indoor plants with light-coloured pots.

  • For Contemporary and Minimalist Designs: Go with low-maintenance plants like succulents in sleek containers.

Cushions and Throws

Cushions and throws are essential for comfort and warmth, especially in lounges, waiting areas, and residential spaces. They enhance texture and colour, allowing designers to incorporate seasonal or thematic accents without a significant commitment. Cushions in rich fabrics and varied textures create a layered look that fits well in cosy or luxurious interiors.

  • For Bohemian and Eclectic Styles: Mix patterns, colours, and textures.

  • For Contemporary and Minimalist Styles: Stick to monochromatic or geometric patterns in neutral colours.

Decorative Trays and Bowls

Decorative trays and bowls serve as both functional and decorative pieces, adding organisation and style to surfaces. They work well on coffee tables, console tables, and bathroom counters, providing a cohesive way to display items like candles, small plants, or personal accessories. Trays and bowls are versatile, coming in materials like metal, marble, or wood to fit various aesthetics.

  • For Modern and Minimalist Spaces: Opt for marble or matte-finish trays in neutral colours.

  • For Industrial and Rustic Spaces: Wooden trays or metallic bowls with rustic finishes add texture and warmth.

Books and Magazines

Books and magazines are classic styling items that add sophistication and character. Placed on coffee tables, bookshelves, or consoles, they bring visual interest and a personal touch to the room. Choose topics or covers that reflect the space’s purpose, like art books for a creative workspace or nature photography for a spa or wellness centre.

  • For Luxury and Traditional Interiors: Leather-bound books or vintage magazines provide elegance and history.

  • For Modern Spaces: Coffee table books with monochrome or bold graphic covers fit well.

Vases and Decorative Jars

Vases and decorative jars add elegance and functionality to interiors, perfect for displaying fresh or dried flowers or standing alone as decorative accents. Available in various materials, from glass to ceramic, they can match the interior’s colour scheme and style. Tall floor vases add visual height, while smaller tabletop vases bring subtle charm to side tables and counters.

  • For Contemporary Spaces: Clear glass or matte ceramic vases with clean lines.

  • For Eclectic and Bohemian Interiors: Colourful ceramic or intricately designed jars and vases.

Selecting Styling Items for Different Spaces

Hospitality and Hotel Spaces

In hospitality, styling items should enhance the guest experience while aligning with the property’s branding. Artwork, decorative trays, and indoor plants work well in hotel rooms, lobbies, and dining areas, creating a cohesive and inviting ambience. Choose colours and styles that reflect the brand's aesthetic, such as sophisticated neutrals for luxury hotels or vibrant accents for boutique properties.

Commercial and Public Spaces

Styling items in commercial spaces should support a professional yet welcoming atmosphere. Abstract artwork, metal-framed mirrors, and sleek sculptures fit well in offices, retail stores, and waiting areas, providing a polished look. Opt for durable materials that can withstand high traffic and are easy to maintain.

Residential Interiors

In residential interiors, styling items add comfort, warmth, and personality. Cushions, framed photographs, and decorative vases create a lived-in feel, while plants and unique sculptures add character. Choose items that reflect the homeowner’s style, whether that’s modern, rustic, or Bohemian.
