What our furniture says about us....

In today's world furniture has become a reflection of any individual's personality.People choose their furniture with as much precision as they choose their clothes or their shoes.

The "rich and the sophisticated" choose furniture with clean lines and expensive finishes....furniture that either is colonial in style or has shining solid wood surfaces which have been polished to perfection even if it has a more modern design.They choose upholstery that are expensive and top of the line.They desire their furniture to excude as much "class" as their watch or their car would.This is a house where the parties are social gatherings aiding business and the furniture is an expensive collection which is aiming to do the same rather than being comfortably inviting.

The "cool and casual" choose furniture that is low and comfortable with the most modern designs and colours.These people are the trend setters and require their furniture to also carry the hue of the "Season". Lacquers and veneer finishes find their way easily into such homes....the look of comfort is carried forward to all the rooms.This is a house where the furniture invites you to try it out..where the parties are for fun and frolic and the furniture as comfortable as the environment in the house.

The "young and sporty"choose furniture that like them,has no frills attached.They want furniture that fulfils their basic requirement of storage and is super easy to maintain as they have no time to put in extra effort.Simple colours and laminates go well with their lifestyle.This is a house where a party is a bash which will go on till the morning and the only requirement from the furniture is that it should be easy to clean the next morning and have enough space to store all the clutter fast!

Now that I have spelled it out so clearly,I have started wondering....what category am I in???
