The New York Times Magazine has a great article about staging a home today. Eventhough the article is about staging for selling purpose, there are some great tips that you can pick up for your daily life as well...
For example:
1) Start with a white sofa and go from there, as you can change the look quickly by changing the pillows.
2) Have a story, or a theme, and build from there.
3) Do and reedo until it's right.
4) Avoid matchy matchy.
5) Build characters and personality by adding pieces that reflect your lifestyles.
