There is no one rule that governs all that they do, after all, they are the creative people so they use their imagination, follow their intuition and they even go as far as dreaming and exploring. One could say, perhaps, that they have some rough principles that direct them to the right result. Here are some of the top interior design tips that you can work on \u2013<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick the Right Paint Color <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some designers say that it is ideal to pick the color of paint last. You may find the logic in this, you may not. What matters at the end of the day is that you pick the right kind of color for your chosen theme, one that is in rhythm with the architectural beauty of your home, and one that functions the way you perceived it to.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s accept this \u2013 there are literally thousands of paint colors in different shades, tones and tints. Every single one can look different from one home to the next because there are factors to consider such as the lighting, the overall theme, even the size of the home.<\/p>\n<p>You would want a paint color that complements the artwork, upholstery, lighting fixtures, carpeting, and the furniture sets.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_878\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><a href=\"http:\/\/mccreerys.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2016\/03\/BLOG-1.-Home-Office-Uttermost-Annileise-Bookshelf-24326.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-878\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-878\" src=\"http:\/\/mccreerys.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2016\/03\/BLOG-1.-Home-Office-Uttermost-Annileise-Bookshelf-24326-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Home Office Uttermost Annileise Bookshelf 24326 is a unique and tasteful way of displaying your books and other collections. \" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Home Office Uttermost Annileise Bookshelf 24326 is a unique and tasteful way of displaying your books and other collections.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Overcrowd Not <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While you may have ample budget to buy every piece of furniture that you want, resist the urge to overcrowd all of your chosen pieces inside one room. Gracious living is tantamount to having enough<\/p>\n<p>You must also know how to arrange furniture on a rug. Here are two techniques \u2013breathing space. Focus on the quality and not the quantity of the furniture. Find the ones that will stand out without being stuffy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If the rug is huge enough, then have all the furniture pieces \u2013 even the ones with the curvy legs \u2013 placed on top of it. This should give the room a more luxurious feel. Make sure to leave 12-18 inches of floor surface on all of the four sides of the rug, though.<\/li>\n<li>In homes with smaller rooms, it is best to keep some of the legs off of the rug. It should be enough for the rug to touch the front legs of every chair. This is especially suited if you are layering a pattern on a bigger textured or solid rug.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You must also resist the urge to display all of your collectibles. If you really love each piece from your travels, then assign a season for each batch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hang Artwork Correctly <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can learn a lot from the museums and galleries that professionally hang artwork. The midline or center of the artwork should be 57\u201d to 60\u201d from the floor. The logic behind this is that the human eye level is often at 57 inches.<\/p>\n<p>In a room where the ceilings are as high as the sky (of course this is an exaggeration), you must hang the artworks at a greater height. Though this is the case, you still need to remind yourself about human scale and not the structural scale.<\/p>\n<p>If you are uncertain about where to hang artworks, then it is best to take a picture first. The photo should be able to reveal what level you can hang the artwork. Photographs often will give you an idea whether it is better to use a smaller or bigger piece of art; or if the spot is just right for a potted tall plant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Always Have a Focal Point <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Just as musicales or any stage production, there are protagonists and antagonists. This concept is also true when it comes to interior design. Choose the best pieces that you would want to highlight or make the <em>star of the show<\/em> then the rest of the items would just play a secondary role.<\/p>\n<p>In the kitchen, the focal point can be that grand oven you just bought, in the living room it could be an art piece, and in the bedroom it can be the fireplace.<\/p>\n<p>The focal point can also be a single wall. This is also called a statement wall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re thinking that interior designers follow a set of rules or that they own a secret book, then you\u2019re in tough luck.
