Scene stealers: the best homeware to add drama

Texture! Colour! Fringing!

Adding some razzle-dazzle to your home is all about a more is more mentality. Indulge in lavish materials — think velvet, cut crystal, gold — and look out for decadent dark florals and regal prints.

Mirrors are a must for creating illusion and sense of depth (very Rada, no?). As on the stage, drama begins and ends with brilliant lighting, so cram in the lamps — candlelight, chandeliers and all.
