The Go-To Design Toolkit for Your Home’s Most Common Styling Elements

We created the Home Styling Guide to give you the exact architectural standards and design rules we use at Mabel Lane to create balanced and cohesive spaces. Designed to be a staple in your design library, a resource to be referenced over and over again as your home evolves through different seasons and projects.

This 30-page digital resource is an illustrated deep dive into the essential math of a well-designed home. Whether you are hanging the perfect piece of art or choosing the right size rug for your living room, this guide ensures every element in your home works together. Stop second-guessing and start styling with the confidence of a designer.

  • The Rules of Furniture & Rugs: Learn the essential spacing, scale, and layout guidelines that make every room feel balanced and livable.
  • The Rules of Window Treatments: Discover how to select and hang drapes for maximum architectural impact.
  • The Rules of Light Fixtures: Master the art of layering light with proper heights and placement for fixtures that are both functional and beautiful.
  • The Rules of Artwork & Mirrors: Follow these tried-and-true measurements for hanging art and mirrors to perfectly complement any space.

This guide is most effective when adding the finishing touches to your home. If you are struggling with a direction for your space, we recommend starting with our Room Audit to gain baseline clarity before applying these finishing standards.
