In staging a room, the natural focal point is always highlighted. You can also create focal points other than the ones built into the room. Creating a focal point establishes visual interest in a space and gives the eyes a place to rest. Stage a room by adding a "purpose" to a space, such as leaving an open book on the desk or if there is a giant vase on a round table, adding large fresh leaves and flowers to symbolize Every person that walks into the room should naturally look at the focal point first and then understand the purpose.
