However, if you insist on doing it yourself, here are a few tips to help you.
• Check out the work of original art nouveau designers like Louis Majorelle, Emile Galle, and Hector Guimard, depending on the elements you wish to incorporate. For example, Louis Majorelle's work will point you on how to be the best art nouveau designer. On the other hand, Emile Galle excelled in making elegant light fixtures while Hector Guimard designed a Parisian house.

Recreating a complete art nouveau setting can be difficult because you have to change many elements, including architecture, wall treatments, and interior décor. Since it is an all-encompassing style, it isn't possible to implement everything at a go.
• Learn to experiment with some accessories: Since it isn't possible to change your home's entire look, going for specific accessories is advisable. For example, you could use art nouveau accent chairs and light fixtures while maintaining everything else as it is.
• It may not work with modern spaces: Art nouveau interiors have a high sense of specificity, making it difficult to use in a modern space. However, that shouldn't be a problem for individuals with more eclectic interiors with design elements in different styles.
• Pick and use beautiful art nouveau pieces: One way to avoid a total overhaul of your home is to use beautiful art nouveau pieces when you spot them. That's is because an instinctively beautiful art nouveau piece can go well with different elements of design. If it could be a fanciful chair or an incredibly beautiful lampstand – don't hesitate to use it.
