Significant Interior Design Suggestions for Decorating your brand-new Showrooms

Edit Article |

Posted: Dec 17, 2010 |

]]>

Interior design lets you imagine! It’s the procedure that furnishes and enhances the look of your space. This entire process requires you to have inventive, analytical and technical abilities. Throughout the renovating process, the skilled designers think about several aspects like color combos, designs, patterns, arrangements, fixtures, furniture, drapes and other things.

All marketers realize the significance of having a well furnished and elegant showroom due to the fact an appealing background with outstanding display of good quality goods will surely capture the interests of the buyers. The design of the room must be done according to your requirements along with the existing market trend. As a result, various showroom owners employ skilled makers to design showrooms. In case you’re thinking about getting your store’s interiors beautified, simply consider the mentioned requirements.

Theme plays an important part in Interior design. You may select any kind of setting belonging to different time periods, like: Gothic, Victorian, Minimalist, Islamic, Indian, Feng Sui, Chinese, Country, African, Tropical, Contemporary and Western. It describes the appearance of the settings.

“Minimalist” employs little clutter and so the walls are painted with a single shade. No luxurious decorations or items are used in it. On the contrary, trees are critical elements of “Hawaiian” theme. Teal and earthly colors along with tan, creams and whites are the true soul of “tropical” theme. An additional hottest setting ruling the markets nowadays is the royal “African setting”. White colored walls, wooden flooring, beige home furniture with fluffy pink and scarlet blankets, silky shades, orange-red theme and vibrant sunshine are the true essence of Africa! You can make use of styles to design showrooms.

Additionally, you should match up shades with the chosen theme. Violet, crimson, rose red, jasmine, mauve, baby pink, indigo and golden yellow are shades that rule the markets! Besides, match up these colors with stylish, traditional or contemporary textures like, old mahogany wood, braided rugs, Afghan, cross-stitch and beach sand to design showrooms.

Finally, fixtures and furniture sum up the entire look. Make sure your windows are made of soft colored wood and covered with sheer curtains to let in sunlight. You can use jute draperies on light, net made curtains for the showroom. Place heavy but portable, teak made, dark colored display cabinets inside. These cabinets should be lit with vibrant lights while, the rest of the showroom must have dim lights! You may also add oak drawers and chests! They complement your interior design.

Now that you’re acquainted with all these elements, I’m sure you’ll be able to design showrooms!

What Must Know About Home Storage Of Beloved Wines And Spirits

Edit Article |

Posted: Jul 16, 2010 |Comments: 0
|

]]>

Many people hurtle through their lives at warp speed, only to come to its end wondering what it is all about. A few fortunate ones have learned that the art of quietly savoring life makes it seem like they have lived a thousand years when it is time for them to leave this earth.

If you’re one of those lucky ones, you probably have at home a cellar, or at least iron wall wine racks to hold your hoard of Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Merlot, or Chablis. Yes, wine, because wine never fails to warm the heart, making it very difficult for one to be sad or morose with it around. Some people show preference for a Gallo, others like a Robert Mondavi. Still others would proclaim that Australian wines are the best, while still others would say that wines from South African, Chile, or France are the best around. Specific preferences may vary widely, but the means of storing wine at home stay the same and are universal.

Not All Wines Should Be Kept.

How long a wine should be stored depends on the type. Many wines are of the kind that does not keep well for a long time, while others can be kept for twenty, sometimes 30 years. Generally speaking, inexpensive wine would not benefit from long storage. Neither will types of wine that comes packaged in a bottle that is made from any material other than glass.

Other wines of this type include Gallo, Hardy’s, and Jacobs Creek, as well as French wines marked “Nouveau” and “Vin du pays” the German QBA, and all other wines labeled “table wine.”

Keep Only Wines That Have the Potential to Improve Over Time.

While your favorite wine wall decor or wine decor will keep forever, you should seek advice on how long your favorite wine keeps.  As a rough guide, here’s how long the popular ones may be stored:     
Zinfandel 2-7 years
Shiraz 2-15 years
Pinot Noir 2-10 years
Cabernet Sauvignon 2-20 years
Merlot  2-10 years
Chardonnay 2-6 years
Sauvignon blanc 2-4 years
Chenin blanc 2-30 years

Temperature

Place your wine racks where the temperature does not fluctuate wildly – anywhere between nine and fifteen degrees Celsius, with eleven the ideal.

Humidity

About 70% is ideal; any lower and the cork sometimes will dry out, which allows oxygen to get in and turns your wine to vinegar. Allowing humidity to drop too much, while not harming your wine, will cause the labels to rot, making it impossible for you to know which are prized labels and which are not, a prospect too horrible to contemplate.

Light

If it gets warmer than 25 degrees Celsius, your wine will be rendered unfit for even cooking, let alone to be enjoyed off the wine glass, so keep your treasure trove away from sunlight or any other artificial light.

Vibration

Wine is best stored in a vibration-free surrounding, so place your iron wall wine racks in a basement room.

Home Design Sense – Creating Design Styles Or Themes

Edit Article |

Posted: Oct 10, 2008 |Comments: 0

]]>

Many home design styles have evolved over the years and some are more popular than others. Keep-in-mind that design styles can also be trendy styles. This means that any particular trend can become obsolete in a short period of time. Consider this when choosing styles. Do you want to go out and purchase new styles when the old ones fade? Be sure you really like a particular style before purchasing.

Of course; many people like the home design styles for their look and feeling it gives a room. So, what design style should you choose when decorating your home?

That depends upon your own personal preferences. What do you like when choosing decorating items? Do you like painted furniture, American flags, soft and cozy? There are design styles which will fit your type of home. Look around and see what items you already have displayed.

If you are just starting out, it would be a good idea to go on-line or visit the library to see all the design styles available. Of course, your furniture choices could help with that decision.

Are your furnishings modern, traditional, contemporary or tropical? If so, then you are already tuned into a specific design style. Some styles fit specific regions of the U.S. Coastal areas use the nautical themes while those in the mountains and higher elevations prefer the ‘lodge’ themes.

Are you a world traveler? Or do you like foreign destinations? There are many styles that will fit your ideas. There are Moroccan, Tuscan and other exotic themes for you. These themes can bring the far away destinations right into your home without leaving the room.

If you like the warm and home town feeling then you may be ready for the country style. This is composed of quilts, rough furniture, patriotic, wood, metal and craft look items. There are many styles of country; such as Americana, Swedish, English and French. Choosing one style may be difficult be look at all the styles before finalizing your thoughts.

The Modern style is comprised of clean and straight lines with minimal accessorizing.

The Traditional style is the most favorite and preferred because it is handed down from generation to generation. This style has curved lines and carved furniture.

Contemporary is the next most popular because it mixes traditional items in the design.

The Exotic style is becoming more popular because it creates an oasis away from everyday life and its ordeals. This style uses floral materials, wicker and rattan furniture, and other items depending upon which tropical are you are trying to emulate in your design. There is Tropical, African, Moroccan, Tuscan, etc.

Of course; there is the Eclectic style. This is where you can combine many different styles in the same room; but doing it tastefully. You can use antiques with contemporary and exotic themes to create your own personal environment that is unlike any other.

This is just some of the styles available, but there are others such as; Shabby Chic, Oriental, etc.

Many home design styles can be created by using your imagination. Shabby chic furniture is painted white; so all you need to do is find a piece of furniture that is scratched and paint it white. Some pieces can be painted with designs that imitate an exotic location. Find some old luggage or trunks and make some labels of exotic locations (look on the web) to stick on them as if they traveled the world. Be creative and you will be surprised at what you can dream up.

Choosing a home design style doesn’t have to be difficult. Consider the room and it use and the others living in the home. You want everyone to be happy and comfortable with your choices. And make it as relaxing and pleasant as possible and enjoy decorating. It should be fun and not stressful.

African Travel Tips When Visiting Kenya

Edit Article |

Posted: Mar 03, 2011 |Comments: 0

]]>

Blessed with tremendous topographical diversity stretching over four climatic zones and featuring coral reefs, desert landscapes, volcanoes and snow-capped mountains, Kenya has it all in one.

Inhabiting these diverse landscapes and wilderness areas are Kenya’s world-famous wildlife, which can be viewed from horseback, 4×4 vehicle, verandah or on foot. There are over 1000 species of birds and huge colonies of colourful butterflies. Also attractive is the rich history, which dates back to the Stone Age, and the various cultures expressed through the sought-after arts and crafts.

So, if you are lazing on the white sand beaches of exotic Mombasa or gazing at the world’s greatest wildlife spectacle, the annual wildebeest migration, you are sure to enjoy a world-class experience.

CAPITAL:

Nairobi

CLIMATE:

Four climatic zones exist: tropical, equatorial, semi-desert and desert. Only two seasons are identified, namely dry and rainy. Due to altitude and topographical differences of the various regions, these seasons and temperatures are not uniform and vary greatly. However, in general the climate is warm and humid at the coast, cool and humid in the central highlands, and hot and dry in the north and east.

CURRENCY:

The official currency is the Kenya Shilling. Traveller’s cheques are widely accepted and many hotels, travel agencies, safari companies and restaurants accept credit cards. Foreign currency such as US dollars, British pounds and Deutschmarks can be exchanged at banks, bureaux de change and authorized hotels. There are no restrictions on the amount of foreign currency that can be brought into Kenya, but taking out more than 500,000 Kenya Shillings requires written authorization from the Central Bank. Before departure, travellers are advised to convert any excess Kenya Shillings into foreign currency at a bank or bureau de change. Departure taxes can be paid in local or foreign currency.

ELECTRICITY:

220/240 volts, 50Hz. Plugs are 3-pin square.

HEALTH:

A yellow fever vaccination is recommended if the traveller comes from an infected country or area. Visitors are also advised to take pre-arrival precautions against typhoid, hepatis A, polio, malaria and meningitis depending on the area visited and time of year. Other health concerns include cholera, rabies, the Nairobi beetle (don’t touch, threaten or kill), dysentery and diarrhoea.

LANGUAGE:

English is the official language, but Kiswahili is the national language.

PUBLIC HOLIDAYS:

New Year’s Day (1 Jan); Good Friday (09 Apr); Easter Monday (12 Apr); Labour Day (1 May); Madaraka Day (01 Jun); Moi Day (10 Oct); Kenyatta’s Day (20 Oct); End of Ramadan (14 Nov); Independance Day (12 Dec); Christmas Day (25 Dec); Boxing Day (26 Dec)

SHOPPING:

Traditional artefacts, beaded jewellery and decorative items, animal wood and soapstone carvings, furniture, coffee, precious stones, furniture, Khanga and Kikoy cloths, musicical instruments, modern art, basket work e.g. Kiondoo/Chondo sisal baskets, Maasai Shukka blankets, ‘Thousand Miler’ sandals, ‘elephant hair’ bracelets.

SOCIAL CONVENTIONS:

Culture here is a mix of the modern and the traditional, with European habits prevailing throughout the country. Kenyans are a very friendly nation and you can dress informally for most occasions.

TIME DIFFERENCE:

GMT +3

TIPPING:

Not mandatory. Guides, drivers, waiters and hotel staff can be tipped at your discretion.

TOP TEN ATTRACTIONS DESCRIPTION:

Maasai Mara:

National Reserve The world’s most famous Game Reserve due to the annual wildebeest, zebra and gazelle migration over this vast plain offering breathtaking views; home to a profusion of wildlife and birds; activities include excellent game viewing year round, balloon rides and bird watching.

Tsavo East and West:

The twin national parks of Tsavo, totalling 10 million acres of wilderness, form Kenya’s largest National Park, which make it ideal for those who enjoy solitude; of the two Tsavo West is visited more; apart from the wildlife and birds, visit Lugard Falls, the volcanic Mzima springs and a unique underwater observatory.

Mombasa:

One of the world’s most exotic tropical ports with a turbulent history. Visit the magnificent Fort Jesus and harbour, see the Arab architecture in Old Town and smell the scent of spices. Many fine temples and mosques can be explored such as the Shiva Temple, the Baluchi mosque and the Dawoodi Bohra Mosque. Also don’t miss the Mombasa Marine National Park, the Moi Avenue gateway arch, dhow cruises and the beaches.

Amboseli National Park:

One of the most popular national parks in Kenya with a wide range of accommodation; the landscape is dominated by Mount Kilimanjaro and the park is famous for its big game and scenic beauty; bird life is abundant.

Lake Nakuru National Park:

Famous for its flamingoes and so popular with bird watchers and other nature lovers. Make full use of the view point and visit the Euphobia forest.

Mount Kenya National Park:

The country is named after Mount Kenya, the second highest mountain in Africa. For mountain climbers and hikers, it offers easy and challenging ascents with superb scenic beauty. The local tribes believe it is the home of Ngai (God). A number of unique, rare and endangered species can be found here and there is abundant bird life.

Lamu:

A peaceful tropical island with a fascinating history, which can be explored in the winding streets of its medieval stone town, a World Heritage Site partly due to it being the oldest and best-preserved Swahili settlement in East Africa.

Lake Turkana National Parks:

The three national parks serve as a stopover for migrant waterfowl and are major breeding grounds for the Nile crocodile, hippopotamus and a variety of venomous snakes. Turkana is outstanding for the study of plant and animal communities and the Koobi Fora fossil deposits have contributed more to the understanding of paleo-environments than any other site in Africa, it is also the most saline of Africa’s large lakes and a World Heritage Site.

Aberdare National Park:

A must for landscape lovers, where one can view spectacular mountains, waterfalls, rainforest, trout streams, moorlands, thickets of giant heath, caves, abundant bird life, duikers, the black rhino and the elusive, rare Bongo – a forest antelope. This area is ideal for walks, picnics, trout fishing, camping and night game viewing.

Mount Elgon National Park:

One of Kenya’s most beautiful and pristine areas where you can find giant trees, about 400 animals, over 240 bird species and ‘cave elephants’ that venture deep into the four caves at night to feed on the salt rich deposits. Mount Elgon is also a famous botanical locality with a great wealth of Afro alpine flowers. Hot springs occur and sport fishing is popular on the Suam river.

Brighten Up Your Saltwater Aquarium With Decorations

Edit Article |

Posted: Apr 21, 2010 |

]]>

Now for the fun part – saltwater aquarium decorations are one aspect of marine fish keeping where you can really allow your creativity to reign free. A variety of decorations are available – from backgrounds, ceramic, resin or plastic ornaments, real or false corals and shells and even plants the sky is (well almost) the limit when it comes to creating a marine world for your fish and other invertebrates.

Saltwater aquarium decorations are fun to buy because unlike the other inhabitants of your tank they don’t require any special care! You won’t need to feed them, provide special habitats and they can’t get sick or die so they are relatively hassle free! A tank without any décor is dull but that’s not all.

A marine tank without any saltwater aquarium decorations is not very exciting AND it can be unhealthy for your fish. Using tank décor makes it possible to break up the physical environment of the tank and is important both for the biological and psycho-social well-being of the fish in your tank. This is because using tank decorations provides hiding places, areas for food to grow on and microbe activity that keeps your tank healthy.

Add to this the fact that saltwater aquarium decorations are nice to look at and fun to work with and you’ll begin to see that décor is essential in any marine tank. The best way to choose your marine tank décor is to visit a store that allows you to see saltwater aquarium decorations in an actual tank, not just on a rack or a table.

Some examples of saltwater aquarium decorations you might like to try in your marine tank are:

Belching clams and treasure chests – These are bubbling and air actuated action ornaments. Spacemen, submarines, clams, and treasure chests are always firm favorites. Even a frog on a log and airstones, are fun saltwater aquarium decorations. The display should be well lit and there should be plenty of bubbles for the best effect!

So what other options are there for saltwater aquarium decorations? What about different and interesting backgrounds? You can purchase a variety of backgrounds like marinescapes, paint-on materials, foils, mirrors and cork stock. You can even buy an in-tank diorama! Display the background effectively and choose tank décor that suits its theme.

Rocks are another good choice for saltwater aquarium decorations. You can choose from sandstones, volcanic and metamorphic rock or even plastic. Some rocks don’t have any impact on water quality while others improve the water quality. If you aren’t sure of a certain rock, play it safe and leave it out. Try pieces of tufa, igneous, silicious/petrified woods), and brackish and African Great Lakes systems calcareous “base” rock. You can usually but rocks by the pound or the ‘piece’. Some rock types are natural while others are artificial.

Driftwood is a great idea for saltwater aquarium decorations. It might be self-sinking or weighted and wither chemically or physically inert or live. Don’t try to cure your own woods. It’s just too time consuming and expensive.

Corals and shells can also be used as saltwater aquarium decorations. Always try to use those from a natural marine source.

Marbles are traditional saltwater aquarium decorations. They can be used underwater – whole circular to flat, marbles and crushed glass are popular in marine tanks. However marbles don’t make for a good biological substrate. They do provide fantastic color to any tank, though.

Faux natural saltwater aquarium decorations are another way of pepping up your marine tank. You can choose from fake rocks, logs, shells, coral, ships and more. Fake they might be but some look quite attractive when arranged properly; so don’t overlook these decorations.

Plastic plants are another option you might want to make use of for your saltwater aquarium decorations. You can obtain some good likenesses of marine plants like sagittaria-turtle grass and vallisneria-zostera for example so don’t overlook them and use them to supplement your real plants while they are growing.

Your choice of saltwater aquarium decorations is up to you but there are some general guidelines to bear in mind when making a choice.

Always make sure that your saltwater aquarium decorations don’t have any sharp edges on which your fish might cut themselves. Never use any substances (rocks, shells etc) that might give off toxic chemicals into the water. Choose shapes and designs that make suitable hiding places for shy animals and good substrates for the growth of marine plants.

Also make sure that your saltwater aquarium decorations are very clean when you put them into your tank. Never use decorations from a tank where the fish or plants are ill or unhealthy in any way. Make sure that there are no spaces within the decorations where fish might get trapped and die.

The best saltwater aquarium decorations don’t have to be particularly fancy. If you like spacemen and frogs go ahead and decorate your tank with them – it’s your tank after all. If you prefer a more elegant style choose natural, rather than faux ornaments and study natural systems and try to duplicate some of these environments in your tank.

You can easily glean this kind of information from books on marine biology or by doing some research on the World Wide Web. The more you learn the more accurate will be the marine world you create and this will make your fish and other invertebrates happy and healthy. The most important thing to remember is to have fun with your saltwater aquarium decorations.

But don’t forget the health of your marine ecosystem. Try to find the proper balance between the aesthetic value of your tank and the well-being of your marine life. The only way to make sure that your stock stay healthy is to study, study, study the fish, invertebrates, plants and make sure you give them what they need to survive. Good luck and enjoy your saltwater aquarium decorations!

Tips For Adding Grape Kitchen Decor For Your Home

Edit Article |

Posted: Apr 06, 2010 |Comments: 0
|

]]>

The kitchen is a popular spot for a decorating theme, whether you choose cheerful sunflowers or apples galore. One theme that has become quite popular in recent years is a grape kitchen decor, which lends itself to warm hues and can go from homey to elegant with ease. Grape kitchen decor can encompass a complete fruit ensemble or go Mediterranean, with a wine and grape style.

The colors are rich and accessory possibilities are nearly endless with the popularity of this style today. If you are considering “going grape” in your kitchen, we have some ideas to get you started.

Color Combinations

A grape kitchen decor is all about rich shades of plum and green, but you can also add accents of gold or taupe to provide an elegant back drop. In some cases, wall texturing is a popular finish for the walls in a soft gold or terracotta to pave the way for the Old World charm that is to come.

If a complete fruit theme is the direction you are taking, try a pale green on the walls to provide a soft backdrop for the grapes, apples and pears that will fill up the room. You can choose a color scheme that will be to your liking, whether you like deep, rich jewel tones in a grape and wine kitchen decor or soft pastels.

Other Wall Decor

Grape kitchen decor can begin with a wallpaper border of green vines and lush, purple fruit or dangling wine bottles and glasses. Another option is to cover one wall in bright, cheerful wallpaper that will tie into your grape kitchen decor.

If you prefer, add your own artistic flair with a stencil around the top of your walls or along the top of the backsplash. Prints of wine, grapes and fruit are easy to find, and come in all sizes, shapes and price ranges. Hang a few prints on the wall to warm up the space and add interest to the background.

Accessories

Wrought iron looks lovely with grape kitchen decor, whether it is an ornate wine rack or a practical bakers rack in the corner. The black metal provides a nice contrast to the rich colors, and offers storage and organization possibilities to boot.

Try an oversized wire basket as the centerpiece of the table, and fill it with fruit or greenery for an inviting touch. Plants also work well with grape kitchen decor, whether it is a line of silk plant atop the cabinets, or a few African violets on a wrought iron stand in front of the window.

Keep in mind that themed rooms can lend themselves easily to overkill, so if you opt for grape themed dishes, you might want to keep the rest of the table neutral in coordinating linens and stemware in a single shade. By the same token, if you fill your walls with grape covered wallpaper, provide a break from the pattern with solid-colored window coverings and rugs.

What Does “My Decorating Style” Mean? Here Are a Few Tips to Help You Answer That Question

My decorating style. Most people use that phrase without giving it much thought. Its as if each individual had a unique way of expressing their tastes and aesthetics, and have found and combined items which together allow the rest of us to witness their own personal uniqueness. In a way, that’s true, but just how many “styles” can there be?

If you were to search the web for “decorating style”, you’ll come up with millions of results! Millions. Everything from African decorating style to Zen decor. And many websites are today dedicated to defining what all this means and what you need to do to fit in to whatever style category your decorating style quiz says you should. And, if you hire someone, they’ll tell you what you should believe “my decorating style” should be.

All this, of course, will be decided by how you answer specific questions, what you buy and how you arrange those things. Setting arrangement aside for a moment, let’s look into what you buy, specifically your furniture, art and accessories. Our childhood influenced many things, such as our political views, our food choices and our decor directions. For instance, if you grew up in a simple, hard surfaced minimalist home, you might carry on that style or choose soft, puffy furniture and wall to wall plush carpeting as your statement of independence.

Or your parents bought, or helped you buy, much of the furniture you have and you simply purchase things that will “go” with those things. Most of us really don’t know what our own personal decorating style is. So, naming it is nearly impossible! We’ve all heard the terms “Shabby Chic”, “Western” and “Tuscan” and some believe that giving your interior decor a name “certifies” it or makes it legitimate. But most of us change with the seasons, have growing families, move to another part of the country or remarry. This leads to change in our purchasing and decor choices.

A lot of us also still have things that we don’t necessarily like, but they hold some sentimental value or remind us of something or someone special. Some of us have gifts—framed art, accessories or even furniture—given by friends or favorite relatives. And, all of us grew up in environments that shaped us positively and negatively in regard to our homes and furnishings. In other words, our personal decorating style is both created by us and plays a roll in defining who we are.

Now, let’s get back to “arrangement” or how we place those “things” in our homes. Understanding how we came to the decisions we make in regard to the placement of objects in our living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas, along with the hardness or softness of those things IS something we may never change. There are only 4 basic styles of interiors … and, each of us is drawn to one of those, no matter what our personal decorating style is. They are:

CASUAL – Includes cottage, shabby chic, American country and many others which utilize softer fabrics and natural materials. If you like pleats, ruffles and comfort, you could be in this category. Furniture and accessories are sturdy, overstuffed and perhaps slightly whimsical. If your mate is one of the other three styles, remember other styles can be “casualized!”

CONTEMPORARY – Basic and linear. A sleek and fresh, bold personal statement representing a modern, up to the minute, probably tech-smart person who focuses on the dramatic. Smooth lines without skirts and frills. Colors are black, white, some neutrals and bright, bold accents. Plants are large and may have their own lighting.

FORMAL – Also called “old world” is elegant and symmetrical. Antique furniture and original oil paintings (with elaborate frames) will be arranged in pairs and always lead to a focal point within the room. Floors can be tile or wood with Persian carpets and Oriental rugs. A formal living room might have a large window, centered on the wall, looking out over a manicured lawn.

TRADITIONAL – This is the style most Americans grew up in. Classic and comfortable. Rooms might have white crown molding, understated accessories, antiques, drapes with under treatments of pleated sheers and plain colors. You may not even call it a style, as it seems like everything is where it is “supposed” to be and nothing is overdone or out of place.

Once you discover your basic style, it will be much easier to define your “personal” style. And, don’t be afraid to be somewhat eclectic. We all are. A contemporary interior with an antique jukebox? A casual living room with a 56″ wall-mounted HDTV? A formal home with a wild and crazy kid’s room? Why not? This is where your personality gets personal. You should be free to experiment and grow! Free to challenge the system. Free to explore new horizons! If you really need to name it, go ahead. There are a million decorating styles out there with names. Search “personal decorating styles” and see.

But you are you, and are different from the other six billion people. Your home is your expression of the uniqueness of you and should reflect that quirky thing that sets you apart. There’s no law that says you have to name your style, you know. When someone asks you what your style is, why not tell them its simply “your” style.
