Decor Tips for your Lakefront Home Owning a lakefront property is in itself a statement. The next step to truly making the statement into a beautiful impression is by decorating it right. The fact is your guests will immediately be drawn towards the view of the lake from your apartment. To further enhance the overall experience, there is only one logic to stick with- and that is keep things simple. Here are a few ways to create the right lakefront décor for your home: 1) One room at a time: Decorate one room at a time to meet the best results. 2) Color palette: Rooms with a neutral or soft color almost flows with the scenic view seen from the windows. See if you can use colors like cream, tan or beige that reflect the shores, or light blue which echoes with the colour of the sky. Sea foam green, coral or other coastal colors would also be great for a lake view apartment. Avoid stark white unless you intend to pair it with dark blue hues of accessories and window frames; that would give the quintessentially nautical look. 3) Rugs and floors: For ease of maintenance, have throw-rugs around and it is always better to have wooden floors to enhance the lakefront experience. 4) Furnish the room with comfortable seating areas and practical furniture in cream, beige, turquoise or light blue to complement the natural look.
