Each zodiac sign has a different approach to life, strengths, weaknesses and even interior design style!
Star signs can tell a lot more about you than even a personality test because the placement of the planets at the exact time of your birth shapes a lot of your characteristics and preferences. Depending on if you’re a creative Aquarius or an organized Libra, your interior design can vary a lot. A Capricorn zodiac sign, for instance, likes things that are practical and meaningful, while Cancers like all things that bring comfort to them.
A sensitive Cancer will thrive in a different environment than a bold Aries. In this article we decode how your celestial character can help you create a space where you will thrive.
Aries
Dates: March 21 to April 19
As an Aries you are adventurous and passionate. A born leader, you are forward-thinking and energetic. With so much going on, you need the exact opposite in a living space. Open plan areas with clean lines and minimal clutter are perfect for your no-fuss star sign. Incorporating bold colors such as red, orange and purple foster creativity and match your fiery Aries personality. These can be added through vibrant rugs, pillows or throws. With an entrepreneurial spirit, a home office or work area is also an essential home feature.
Taurus
Dates: April 20 to May 20
The Taurus zodiac sign is ruled by Venus meaning that you’re a sensual being who enjoys beauty and luxury.
Comfort, long-lasting design and aesthetics are essential elements of creating a space you will love. Plush additions like large sofas, soft throws and fur rugs are ideal for a Taurus home. As an earth sign, a color palette of calm browns and greens would be perfect. Wooden side tables with indoor plants such as Monstera or Devil’s Ivy will satisfy your connection to nature.
Gemini
Dates: May 21 to June 21
Gemini’s are social, curious and crave variety. You love being around people so a space for parties and gatherings is essential. As an air sign, you are a breezy and don’t settle on one style for too long.
A Gemini home will be an eclectic mix of colour and pattern, matching your light-hearted and quirky personality. Gemini’s fit perfectly with the eclectic bohemian style that incorporates crazy color combinations, patterns and textures from all around the world. It’s important that this is translated into easily changeable pieces such as rugs, throws and art as you like to change your mind frequently!
Cancer
Dates: June 22 to July 22
A Cancer is a creative and romantic, with a strong sense of family. For you, home is where the heart is so you need a cozy environment with personal touches.
A comfortable couch, framed pictures and quirky thrift store finds are typical elements of a Cancerian home. Cancers are often worried about everyone around them and don’t prioritize self-care. A calming neutral-palette bathroom with candles, indoor plants and a relaxing tub, may give you the space you need to unwind.
Leo
Dates: July 23 to August 22
Leo’s are the ‘royalty’ of the zodiac signs. You are the most dramatic, proud and passionate. A Leo demands an opulent and extravagant home.
The bedroom is the most important room in the house for a Leo as you like to relax in style. A lavish bed accented with plush pillows and high-thread-count sheets would make you very content. A suede headboard, golden side lamps and marble surfaces will help achieve the luxurious room you desire.
Virgo
Dates: August 23 to September 22
As a Virgo you are perfectionist and take pride in your home. You hate clutter and feel most relaxed in a clean and natural environment.
A room influenced by Scandinavian design would be the perfect fit for you. Think neutral tones such as cool greys, white and pastel greens. The room can be accented with natural elements to add a ‘zen quality’. A flat woven rug, leafy indoor plants and small pops of colour in pillows and vases would complete your room.
Libra
Dates: September 23 to October 22
You are a social star sign that likes to build your home around entertaining guests.
A large table, comfy couches and outdoor seating are ‘must-haves’. You prefer the finer things in life and appreciate decor that exudes beauty and glamour. The most artistic of the zodiac signs, fine art would balance your creativity while also meeting your expensive taste. The Libra star sign is all about balance so different materials and colours should be used in moderation. A soft palette of soft pinks, greys and lilacs paired with metal and wood accents would create a light and calm environment.
Scorpio
Dates: October 23 to November 21
You enjoy spending time alone and your home is a safe haven where you can mentally and physically unwind. A powerful star sign, you should decorate spaces with darker colours, strong contrasts and opulent pieces.
The bedroom is a sanctuary for you, a place you can truly relax and heal. The decor should be kept minimal, to calm your busy mind. However, sensuality can be added with velvet curtains, silk pillows and candles.
Sagittarius
Dates: November 22 to December 21
The nomadic Sagittarius is optimistic, honest and curious. You feel trapped if you are in one space for too long.
Bohemian is the perfect theme for a Sagittarius home, allowing you to mix all of the different travel treasures you have collected. Tribal rugs, macrame wall-hangings, bold patterned throws and eclectic knick-knacks will create a worldly space for you to thrive.
Capricorn
Dates: December 22 to January 19
Capricorns are no-nonsense. Everything in your home must have a purpose for being there. You prefer traditional decor such as vintage clocks and leather sofas. Practicality is essential so furniture should be high-quality and arranged to make efficient use of the space.
A color-scheme of light woods, greys and charcoals would match your down-to-earth
nature. This palette can be enhanced with different textures such as marble and
sandstone, aesthetically beautiful but hard-wearing materials.
Aquarius
Dates: January 20 to February 18
As an air sign you are a free-thinker who thrives in large open spaces that allow you to express your creativity.
You prefer industrial-influenced rooms that are accented with bold graphics and modern materials such as glass and brick. A palette of pale blues, greens and silver, influenced by the ocean, will make you feel right at home. With a strong connection to nature, plants are an essential addition. You also have an appetite for the unique so bold patterns, interesting sculptures and one-of-a-kind market finds may be found around your home.
Pisces
Dates: February 19 to March 20
Pisces are imaginative, sensitive and creative. Your home is a sanctuary where you can relax and express your creativity.
You seek a calming space with a cool palette of ice blues, lilacs and greys. This palette works well when contrasted against warmer wood tones. You like a sensual feel in your living space which can be achieved through indoor
waterfalls, mood lighting, plants and silk curtains. The overall vibe should be dreamy, allowing your whimsical Pisces mind to wander.
