Accessorizing adds texture and layers to the space. To break the monotony of the subtle neutral tones, a burst of contrasting colours enhance the drama of the overall setting.

A mirror-shelf can be considered in a study space where you wouldn't want something too jarring and bulky. You can stash journals and stationery and the big round mirror does a wonderful job in adding depth to your study room.

Nestip: The same mirror can be alternated as a decor accent in the balcony. Line up Bamboo plants just below the mirror. Align them neatly with the wall or the grill and adorn the shelf with flowers from your home garden itself.
