hen planned correctly, even a small room can look bigger, feel
warmer and more inviting, and more functional. Here are several
things to remember when designing your interiors.
Ascertain the total amount of space you need
Think about the dimensions of your furniture and how many individuals will be
using the room at the same time. You would like the room to be roomy enough so
everyone can move around in a relaxed way and not bump into the contents of the
room. Moreover, make a list of smaller spaces used for specific functions which
you will need within the bigger space. When you've done that, determine how
much square footage you require for each area.
Determine space relationships
Identify which spaces or elements must be adjacent to one another. This is really
important in kitchens where workflow efficiency is necessary. There are no strict
rules in relation to space relationships. You need to organize your space to fit your
needs or lifestyle.
Think about existing conditions
A new residence wouldn’t be that difficult to decorate because it is essentially a
clean slate. This though does not apply for old houses. If you do not renovate, your
interior design is limited by the existing shell. Windows, electrical outlets, columns
and dividers can impact space planning.
