Most average Americans cannot or do not hire an interior designer to transform their homes into masterpieces, but many still desire the polished style that comes with dealing with a professional. We are here to say that just because you didn't hire a designer, does not mean your rooms must forfeit looking like you didn't. Follow these few helpful suggestions to create an invited, well-designed home interior.
- Research what you love: Flips through home design magazines or scour the internet for interior design blogs or Pinterest boards to collect ideas and styles of what you want to incorporate into each of your rooms. Once you have all your favorites laid out, you may be surprised to find you have plenty of foundational options for design direction.
- Pick a color scheme: Zero in on just two or three colors for your rooms, even though it may be tempting to do more. Once you decide on these central colors, begin thinking about which color you want for you walls, which color for accessories and accents, and what color you want for larger furniture items. Organizing this will keep your design on track and look more put-together in the end.
- Buy big-statement furniture pieces: Instead of cluttering up your space with dozens of little haphazard pieces, invest in a high-quality, elegant couch and eye-popping armchairs to draw in some of the room's focus. Furthermore, mixing big statement pieces with smaller, complementing furnishings can give your room the perfect amount of flow and style you desire.
