Decor or interior decorating is considered the art of designing a room that will look good and be functional. Also you will need to create a feel for each room or your whole house. Popular items used to decorate a home are wall paper, paintings, paint color, furniture and of course accessories. Accessories can include sculptures, paintings, pictures and other art pieces.

Interior Decorating can be traced back to William Kent. Kent was an architect and a landscaper. He took hold of complete rooms, adding furniture and paintings to rooms. Other early decorators include Syrie Maugham, Sybil Colefax and Dorothy Draper.
Often time`s decorators concentrate on a theme. Popular theme choices include Art Deco, Victorian and Louis XV. As of late decorators and home owners have revisited the designs of the 50`s.
