More is always better when it comes to interior design, and an English woman not only elevated the aesthetic of her home but also gave it economical advantages.
But the procedure has also served as therapy. Lois Connors, a 39-year-old content developer who lives close to Manchester, was diagnosed with ADHD when she was 37 years old. According to the Mirror, after hearing the news, she went out to remodel her house in order to accept having the disease and how it affects all of her decisions.
As a result of her ADHD attracting busy patterns and textures, she created a stylish space complete with leopard-print wallpaper and furnishings. She can now negotiate her situation and, in some ways, even embrace it thanks to the elegantly decorated crib, but the remodeling also helped her increase the home’s worth by roughly $109,000.
The three-bedroom terrace house was bought by her in 2021, and as of just one year later, it is apparently worth over $483,000. Not bad considering she used hand-me-down and second-hand things to save almost $15,000 on the decorations.
Images of the interior of the house reveal leopard-print wallpaper next to exposed brick, a statement leopard-print couch next to an antique mirror, and leopard-print throw pillows and lampshades all over the place. She also has a sizable porcelain leopard figurine that she named Priscilla, as well as bedding and a bedroom rug with a leopard print.
According to Connors, who said that leopard “fits with everything,” “this absolutely effects my design decisions as my brain wants dopamine.” So I particularly like busy wallpapers, odd home design items, textured furnishings, and color contrasts.
Although it has a grand appearance, the late Ivana Trump’s New York City property, which was advertised for $26.5 million in November and has, among other things, a library with leopard print furnishings, is more opulent.
In addition to the abundance of leopard print and antiques, Connors also incorporates louder designs using vintage fireplace mantels, a variety of pink and black posters, gilded frames, and a lot of plants.
She subsequently said, “I am a’more is more’ décor lover and have never been frightened of color and pattern. My taste has always gone towards vintage and maximalism.
She also understands that not everyone would like her unique style; over the years, she has heard others describe her as “tacky,” “offensive,” “color blind,” and “too feminine.” None of that, she claimed, has ever affected her.
