		The goal of interior decoration is to provide a certain "feel" for the room; it encompasses applying wallpaper, painting walls and other surfaces, choosing furniture and fittings, such as light fixtures, and providing other decorations for the area such as paintings and sculptures.
		This is generally achieved by passing the original object as a parameter to the constructor of the decorator, with the decorator implementing the new functionality.
