Comfort and beauty are supposed to be
the criteria in setting up your home. Most people, though, do not
realize that it doesn't take as much cost and time to making your home
comfortable, clean, practical, and beautiful too!
It only needs your creativity, an eye for good color combinations and just a fraction of know-how in interior design.
You
could try hanging and storing clothes in a curtained corner, instead of
on stick-on hooks on your walls or behind the doors. You could put on
bright and fresh shades on your doors and windows and take down the
heavy drapes and curtains. De-clutter your table tops and substitute
with a proportional vase on living room tables. Dispose of your large
and chunky sofa, throw in a soft comfortable rug with some cushions in
bright colors on your floor. Guests would definitely be floored by your
home interior scheme.
This
outcome doesn't come in a snap, though. It needs more than a little
planning, or else your home interior design will come out a hodgepodge
of colors and stuff. For example, a new available corner could be enough
space for your TV then you find out that the whole window light is
reflected from the TV screen.
When
you set up your furniture, you must be conscious of natural light - it
should be allowed to come in freely, inside the rooms, at writing areas
and TV or computer monitors not reflect light from overhead or on the
opposite side, like a window or door opening towards the sky. Windows
and doors must have enough space to be fully opened.
One
principle in home interior design is for walls and ceilings to be in
pastel shades. These reflect light and will brighten your house more.
Paint your doors and windows in similar colors or shades to your walls
to create a breezy fresh ambience.
Curtains
add in mood creation of a room. Lacy curtains generate daintiness,
brightly colored curtains invigorate an otherwise dull room; dark and
heavy curtains give a peaceful and restful environment. There are
various color schemes for bedroom, living room and kitchen interior
designs for you to choose from.
You
can also mix and match the colors of the furniture in the rooms of your
house to reflect your individuality in your home design. Wooden cane
furniture appears light but is actually strong and easily portable.
Heavy cushioned furniture denotes luxury and repose.
Identify your personality and direct your taste to your home interiors. It is, after all, your own home, your haven and refuge.
