How to decorate your home based on your star sign
Tailoring your space to your star sign's personality can be an easy way to discover your personal decorating style. By choosing decorating techniques that fit in with your star sign's typical traits, you'll be sure to create a space where you always feel at home.
There are four elements in astrology: fire, earth, air, and water. Each of the 12 zodiacs falls into one of these four elements, meaning there are three signs ruled by the same element. Knowing which element rules your sign can help you understand your nature and provide inspiration for your next homewares shopping trip to Westfield Coomera.
Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Fire signs are passionate, bold, and creative. These signs don’t mind receiving praise and attention, making them delighted to host friends and family in their home with compliments encouraged. For all fire signs, bold bursts of crimson or hot pink and magenta will help ignite excitement and joy. Adding vibrant hues will grab attention and can be done through accent pieces such as candles, books and cushions through to high impact pieces such as sofas or artwork. Fire signs love to try new things – think mixing and matching the latest trends together.

Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Grounded and practical, earth signs are the organisers of the zodiac. Their detail-oriented nature makes them perfectionists, meaning each piece of furniture is carefully thought out. They adore elegant and classic styles with symmetry taking centre stage and a dash of minimalism thrown in. Top tip: focus on ensuring all the essentials are easily organised and hidden away from view, with only the best collectables on display. Natural, earthy tones such as sage, sand, taupe, fog and classic light buff will appeal to them to feel centred. Accent pieces such as vases, ottomans and cushions will help to add a touch of neutrality, or make a statement with a dining table or kitchen cabinets in muted tones.

Air Signs: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
The element of air is one that allows for freedom, liberation, and is simply best described as: a breath of fresh air. People born under an air sign are adventurous, curious, fun, and full of life. They take a different approach to life, and some may describe them as ‘quirky’. These signs will do well to play around with different colours and patterns, to keep their space engaging and interesting. This could be a lively patterned bed spread through to bold, bright and on-trend glassware. Air signs are drawn to modern designs, so incorporating clean lines and futuristic shapes will help them feel right at home.

Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
The water signs are the feelers of the zodiac. Sensitive, sentimental, and a little bit psychic, their ability to sense and understand the world around them is unmatched. Much like their element of water, these signs tend to absorb the energy of the environment around them, making it even more important to ensure their home space is truly a haven to rest and re-energise. It's not a surprise that these signs lean toward coastal-inspired decor such as natural materials and colours that soothe the soul, to create a calm and peaceful space.
