GUIDELINES FOR INTERIOR DECORATION
1. Less is More

Beautiful interior design is not about adding more; it’s about balancing function and form.

  1. Always Create a Focal Point

A focal point is crucial for tying a space together and determining what kinds of furniture, lighting, and decor are most appropriate. In some rooms, the focal point might be very naturally determined by structural components like a fireplace, bay window, or kitchen counter.

In other spaces, the focal point can be “artificially” constructed using a particular and intentional arrangement of the furniture. For example, a large couch centered against a wall with evenly space chairs positioned opposite to the couch can make the purpose of the space clear and set the tone for how the space should be used.

  1. Cohesiveness is King

Tie each element of the design together, making them somewhat similar and cohesive through intentional choices. The cohesiveness should be apparent from the conceptual level all of the ways down to specific details (e.g., style to specific choices about colors and furniture). Don’t break the theme for the sake of a personal interest piece.

  1. Use Multiple Forms of Lighting

Mix lighting to achieve the right effect and moods depending on how the room and space need to be used. Lighting is one of the most overlooked and critical aspects of interior design because amateurs perceive all lighting options to be somewhat similar.

  1. Design for Human Experience

Create human spaces – places that will be lived in, used, and enjoyed.

  1. Measure Twice, Order Once

Don’t leave important details to chance. Whether you’re measuring a window frame, calculating square footage, or finding the center of a wall, double and triple-check your results to ensure their accuracy before finalizing plans or ordering materials. Easy to make measuring mistakes are one of the most common reasons that projects get delayed or go over budget.

  1. Scale Your Decor to Fit the Space

Ensure that the furniture, window dressings, rugs, etc. all fit the actual space that you’re designing. While they might all fit on paper, it might not feel natural once each piece is actually installed or moved into place.

Some of the most important rules to remember regarding where to place items in a specific room include the following:

  • Artwork should be hung at eye level (not too low or high)
  • Curtains should be installed above the top of the window frame and set to barely touch the floor
  • Rugs should extend a little beyond where the furniture sits.
