When it comes to any kind of decor, the visual touches are absolutely influential on the mood, and can influence people in rather remarkable ways. It might seem obvious that the eye will catch details and respond accordingly, but there are levels of reaching family and guests that are likely deeper than expected. People are visual as well as linguistic in nature, and tend to respond to images and words with their own internal images and words. It’s one of the more exciting findings in psychological response, and can be very useful toward creating a perfect environment in the home.

In language theory, the idea is that people construct a world for themselves with words . In the current visual information age, there is also evidence that some people, perhaps half the population, thinks in images rather than words. Some tend to think in both at the same time.

For design, this information can be used in uncountable ways. It suggests that the perception of the viewer plays an active role in reading information on multiple levels. Fountains in a garden can add an instant sense of being refreshed, because the relationship that everyone has with water is so deeply rooted. The eye sees the fountain, and it sets off a series of visual associations along with a complicated narration about the feeling of water. Having candles in a room don’t simply make one feel romantic because the light is soft, but because they are related to heat, and the mind registers this, and begins telling itself stories in words as well as images.
