Choose beautiful curtains, elegant materials, harmonious courtyards, shapes… Successful interior design requires adherence to certain basic principles. Here are seven essential elements for an impressive decoration.
1. A harmonized framework
We think about the floor coverings, the woodwork, the wood of the stairs that harmonizes with that of the parquet, but also the doors and decorative fittings. A flowing, homogeneous environment exudes a feeling of order and beauty.
2. Beautiful window decorations
Curtains, blinds or shutters are essential for a feeling of everyday privacy. Whether you choose a romantic or hyper-modern style, there is always a suitable model that will enhance the whole and complete the interior.
3. Boldness
With white walls, a beige sofa, and a trio of perfectly coordinated pillows, there's no risk of going wrong, just boring. What makes a room memorable is that little extra bit of whimsy, that eye-catching hue, that item that sparks curiosity. But to do that, you have to trust yourself and… dare!
4. In the light
Lighting is often neglected when decorating. However, it is one of the most magical aspects, most likely to serve to create a pleasant atmosphere or to hide certain small defects. We think about functional, mood lighting (pretty table or desk lamps) and accent lighting (over a beautiful object, a frame, etc.). We complement it with candles or tealight holders.
5. An interest in design
The shapes bring rhythm and dynamism. The round shapes react to the square shapes, they complement each other. We take this into account when choosing furniture that expresses our taste and style.
6. Printed
The patterns enrich the decor with a touch of fantasy and movement. They help us to add color accents and thus determine the style of a room. Eclectic combinations like large prints are unmatched when it comes to adding character. How can we introduce patterns into our facility? Through carpets, cushions, throws, etc.
7. Real materials
Furniture made from natural or fine materials such as linen, stone or wood creates an authentic, rich character. The same applies to the materials; natural materials are a guarantee of timelessness.
Bonus: How do you make your facility warmer?
It is these details that make the interior real, warm and homely. Nothing is sadder than these disinfected decors that look like catalogs!
Although it is personal, I would say that the presence of books, photos, flowers and plants is essential. We also think of small, useful accessories and elements that contribute to comfort: cozy blankets, pillows, rugs, side tables.
