Hello World! Welcome Friends! Making a house a home can seem like a daunting task. There’s no need to worry, though. You don’t need to be a professional to turn things around quickly. Following these simple elements of interior design will give you everything you need to make your home a safe and cozy place for you and your family.
Space
Utilizing your space correctly can make a room feel bigger. You can use mirrors, curtains instead of doors, and paint your walls a lighter tone. Keeping on top of clutter and making sure the room is well-organized will also do wonders. It’ll feel more like a home when not overrun by a mess.
Light
Using natural or artificial light in a space can both be an advantage. Natural light is great for house plants, which can add a pop of color as well as aid your health.
For artificial lighting, we recommend opting for softer tones by using lamps to keep your room cozy. This will also help you wind down in the evenings. There’s nothing worse than a bright light to keep you awake for hours.
Form
Form refers to the shapes in a room. Using different three-dimensional shapes can show your tastes and design preferences. Adding uniquely shaped decor, such as side tables or a chair, can add a sense of ‘you’ in a space.
Pattern
Patterns work in collaboration with colors to bring life into the home. Smooth and continuous designs allow patterns to stand out. Top options right now include paisley, chevron, stripes, and plaid, but go with what you like best.
You can amp up a wall in one of the common spaces by adding one of the patterns mentioned above or perhaps geometric shape designs. A project like this is incredibly simple, only requiring painter’s tape, paint, and a brush, and will put your stamp on your home.
Color
Colors can affect your mood, according to psychology. Paint your walls calming shades for a sense of relaxation in your home.
You can also use it to add your own sense of style to a room with pops of color. Utilize bright colors amongst neutrals with accent walls, rugs, hot pink throw blankets, and more.
Line
Lines can be very powerful in a home. Vertical lines will attract attention to objects above head height and give a sense of dignity. Horizontal lines are great for making you feel secure, which is perfect for a home.
You can also use curved or diagonal lines to show off your personality. Mirrors and rugs can be great for playing with this method.
Scale
Balance your home with a mixture of big and small objects. Smaller artworks surrounding a bigger mirror promote harmony. By playing with this element, you’ll create a well-balanced home where you’re able to relax.
Texture
Texture adds depth to an already well-decorated room. There are two types to utilize: visual texture and actual texture. Visual texture is only visible to the eye, such as surfaces that appear to be wavy but are actually smooth. Actual texture can be seen with the eye, but can also be felt.
You can add fluffy, soft textures to your room for warmth This includes using throw blankets and pillows, bedspreads, drapes, and more to make your house cozy.
Statement Pieces
Add statement pieces to your space for a finishing touch and to show off your style. These objects can tie the whole room together, offering a unified space to relax in.
Statement pieces to add can be rugs, intricate lighting fixtures, a custom artist painting, and unique furniture. The goal is to have something individual that you wouldn’t find in other homes. This way, you’ll always feel like you’re in your comfort zone.
Old and New
There’s no one style that fits all nowadays. Combining old items with modern pieces can add interest to your room and really give it that unique feel. It’s a great idea to upgrade old items that you no longer feel fit in your home by repainting furniture or picking out new fabrics for chair covers.
