If You’re a Sagittarian, Here’s How You Can Create a Perfect Home

By - August 01, 2024

Are you born between November 22 and December 21? This puts you under the sign of Sagittarius. Many astrologers say that Sagittarians are unique. They’re the last sign of the zodiac, and often the most free-spirited.

In her famous book Sun Signs, Linda Goodman says that these people are honest, purposeful, and restless. They are frank and loyal, as well as “lovable, likable, intelligent idealists”.

In a nutshell, some characteristics of a typical Sagittarius are:

  • They value independence and don’t like being tied down
  • They take a big-picture view of things and set large goals
  • They are adaptable
  • They love travel and adventure
  • They like learning and seeking answers

Does that sound like you? If so, you can use your knowledge of these traits to create interiors where you will truly feel at home. Let’s dive into how to make this happen.

Keep Open Spaces

As a Sagittarian, you hate being cooped up. In your home, you should try and create as much open space as possible. Remove the furniture you don’t need and keep only essential, hand-picked pieces. If you can, aim for an open-plan system with folding partitions. Bring in the outdoors with large windows and green plants.

With such a layout, you get a better connection between spaces, more natural light, and wonderful views. If you’re thinking of renovating an old house, it makes sense to live in one for a while before deciding which walls need to come down and which ones have to stay.

Naturally, you also need to consider the structural implications by consulting an expert. Either way, you could aim for a minimal style, coupled with elements from Scandinavian design for an open yet comfortable vibe.

Create Learning Nooks

Sagittarians love to learn and explore. Often, such learning is linked to their lives in a practical manner. For example, you may want to find out about all aspects of a subject before embarking on a new task. Or you could want to read all you can about a country before travelling to it.

You can scratch this itch by creating a learning nook. If you have a large enough space, you can design a library area, with a seating arrangement. Even with smaller spaces, you can dedicate a corner to such pursuits. This could be a place for a collection of books and magazines, your laptop, and cosy rugs and cushions. In such spaces, a no-furniture look also works well. Include a few poufs and a distinctive coffee table, and it may become your favourite spot in the entire house.

Stay Organised

As we’ve pointed out, Sagittarians love to set large goals and look at the big picture. This means that there could be a danger of ignoring day-to-day practicalities. In the home, this may be reflected in increasing clutter. That’s why you should first of all get rid of unnecessary items, and then make sure that you have a plan to handle the rest.

You can do this by creating enough storage space. Ensure that you have the right size and type of wardrobes, for a start. Elsewhere too, you should have no reason to run out of storage options if you have proper kitchen cabinets and dual-use furniture. Then, you can create daily and weekly plans to keep your home clean and clutter-free. Come up with a simple routine you can stick with. It will pay dividends.

Don’t Stay Neutral

Sagittarians are warm, large-hearted and bold. Why not reflect this character in the colours you choose for your interiors? You can opt for dramatic accent walls, for example. These will add drama and style to any room in your home. Apart from the colour, there could even be a different texture for different walls.

Other ways to create pops of colour are through accessories that complement or contrast the rest of the space. You can choose a rug that is a refreshing contrast to the wall paint, or you can have sofas and cushions that are bold and stand out. In your kitchen, too, you can opt for black stainless steel appliances with yellow or red cabinets to complement them. There are so many ways to make interiors come to life through the use of colour, and you should consider all of them.

Try an Eclectic Style

In an eclectic style of interior décor, you blend different aesthetics to create a signature look. For example, you can use knick-knacks, posters and other items that you have picked up in your travels. This will let you mix visual elements in a way that is curated and appealing.

You can also create a pleasing boho vibe. This has carefree layers of pattern, texture, and colour, with no hard and fast rules. Handmade furniture, wall-hangings and quirky pieces of art enhance the effect. The idea is to create a personal and relaxed space that reflects your Sagittarian spirit.
