1. Determine Your Style
What do you want a room to feel like? Here's a tip to help you define your style: Look through your closet. Do you prefer fitted clothes or those that are more relaxed and comfortable? Do you have a preference for particular colors or patterns? Another technique to figure out your style is to develop a list of key phrases that describe how you want a room to feel. Traditional, formal, and sophisticated? Playful, amusing, and inviting? Monochrome, sleek, and contemporary?
2. Determine what you dislike.
It is much easier for people to communicate their dislikes. We may remove certain things and focus on others by factoring dislikes into the equation. A large-scale print, for example, can remind you of anything from your upbringing that you don't want to see in your home. On the other hand, a wingback chair can conjure up images of being put to time-out for pulling your sister's hair. Similarly, a specific hue may remind you of a previous design trend that you don't want to replicate. These experiences and responses are deeply personal and unique, but they also shape our preferences.
3. Customize Your Space
Space planning is crucial since it affects size. People frequently use furniture that is either too big or too small for the room. I like to blame the large-scale table that fills today's spaces on a specific retail brand. Build your room around the stuff you have. Consider the equilibrium of a room. Consider creating zones for different activities in bigger rooms, such as a conversational seating area, a television viewing area, and a workspace with a desk or table for crafts or games.
4. Take a Paint Sample
One of the most significant and cost-effective decisions is which paint to choose. Paint selections that harmonize rooms are essential. Consider the entire structure. If you paint one room at a time, you risk creating fragmented spaces. Consider how colors influence our emotions. Colors may make individuals feel joyful, tranquil, or angry. Interior doors have been painted a striking black to contrast against pristine white walls.
5. use a combination of high and low price points.
Pedigree may not always imply superiority (art, furniture, or dogs). Consider buying art or a table from an "unknown" artist or designer based on shape, comfort, and how well the art fits your needs. Even the most insignificant items may have the most incredible spirit and be the most attractive thing in a room. Mixing high and low price points is not a bad idea. Not everything has to be valuable to be significant. Splurging on something you genuinely enjoy has the opposite effect.
6. Begin from the beginning.
The design may be intimidating. People frequently wonder where they should begin. When designing a room, I always recommend starting from the ground up: Choose your floor covering. Whether you desire hardwood floors, area rugs, tile, stone, or wall-to-wall carpeting, it makes little difference. How other things are piled in the space will be determined by how you initially think about your floor. You have more color and upholstery possibilities if you choose a neutral tone or natural fabric with little pattern or color. If you start with an ancient rug, you may create a color palette by drawing colors from it.
