The 4 interior design rules you must not break

by Xarxa · May 25, 2020

If you have chosen to buy a home to reform or have decided to do comprehensive works in which you live, it is important that you take into account these interior design rules that are the basis with which any interior design studio works. If the professionals do not skip them, it seems common sense that you respect them and incorporate them into your design project. Its effectiveness is proven!

METRO IN HAND TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THE SPACE

It seems an unnecessary advice, it is logical to think that you are going to measure to the millimeter and with exactitude, to have absolutely clear the dimensions with which you can count. However, the reality is that many times we do an “eye calculation”. Not the professionals, but we do when we are devising the purchase of furniture or if we can fit those paintings that we have just received. Watch out! The spatial capacity of our sight can play tricks on us and end in disgust.

Some examples will help you understand to what extent it is important to take detailed measurements. If you are thinking of changing the sofa, don't just measure the length, it is just as important to consider the depth of the seats. Or, when setting up a table with chairs, keep in mind the actual space it takes to sit comfortably, not worth what they occupy embedded within the table margins.

THERE IS NO INTERIOR DESIGN IF ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS ARE NOT TAKEN CARE OF

The beams on the ceiling, the columns ... even the exposed brick or natural stone walls. There is no interior design professional who does not consider it a luxury to have these architectural elements as a starting point for their designs. That is where they will demonstrate the validity of hiring experts. And, it doesn't matter if your bet is for a modern or minimalist style, these architectural gems fit in any environment.

CHOOSING A FOCAL POINT IS KEY

It does not matter if we talk about the design of a bathroom, a kitchen, a bedroom, the living room or simply the entrance to your house. Any decorative composition has to rotate around a point where attention is focused, to which all eyes are directed when entering a room.

That's where you should put that special piece that is your favorite. An original sofa, the design table that you had a hard time finding or that natural sideboard that seduced you as soon as you saw it. To make sure you make it a focal point, you can help yourself with cushions or table runners, paintings, mirrors, a decorative vase or a plant that reinforces the visual power you are looking for.

ESSENTIAL TO BREAK SOME DECORATIVE MANTRA

Yes, an article that talks about rules and ends up recommending that you skip them. But, the truth is that if you really want to create in personal, original space and only yours, you have to take risks. Or not, because basically, it has been a trend for years that there are no red lines in decorative matters. We are thinking of using dark colors, especially black, as the protagonist of your bedroom, something unthinkable according to the classic rules of interior design. Another example, using wallpaper in the bathroom or buying mismatched chairs to accompany your dining table.

Any of the reform projects that we undertake from Xarxa Homes takes into account these essential rules that we have remembered for you. For our part, we add one that we consider equally essential, thinking about what satisfies each client, not our tastes. Count on this team of professionals if you want to be heard!
