Ever walk into a room and think: “Hmm… it’s nice, but something’s off”?
You’ve got the furniture. The walls are painted. There are candles, maybe even a cute planter or two. But it still doesn’t feel like you.
That’s because styling isn’t just about filling space. It’s about choosing pieces that say something—about your personality, your mood, and your energy.
At House of Avana, we believe your space should be as meaningful as it is beautiful.
So let’s fix the five most common styling mistakes holding your home back—and show you how to elevate your vibe with statement Avana pieces.
1. Cluttered Chaos > Curated Calm
The Mistake:
Overcrowding surfaces with too many small items—making everything feel messy and disconnected.
The Fix:
Less is more. Choose one bold accent piece to anchor the space and let it breathe. Our Brass Cheetah Figurine is fierce, elegant, and turns heads—no extra fluff needed.

2. Same Height = Same Boring
The Mistake:
A tabletop or shelf where every object sits at the same level = zero visual interest.
The Fix:
Play with height! Stack books, add a tall piece like our Hemp Rope Vase, and layer shorter items around it. This creates depth and balance.

3. Colour Overload Without a Plan
The Mistake:
Too many colors fighting for attention—and not enough harmony.
The Fix:
Stick to a palette. Start with earthy or neutral tones, then add one accent. Our Earth Toned Abstract Sculpture blends seamlessly into any calm, grounded colour story.

4. Dead Corners & Entryway Neglect
The Mistake:
Empty corners and neglected entryways miss an easy chance to make an impact.
The Fix:
Give them a purpose with a soulful sculpture like our marine decor. It instantly sets a calming tone the moment someone walks in.

5. Styling with... No Soul
The Mistake:
Using pieces just to “fill space” instead of choosing what actually feels good to you.
The Fix:
Add meaning. Our Bronze Elephant Decor Isn’t just decor—it symbolises wisdom, strength, and grounding energy.
