More or less aware, we all want our home to be appreciated by those who will pass the threshold. We browse interior design magazines, look for inspirational images on various specialist sites or wander through the DIY stores, all to manage to make our home as fashionable as possible. We invest time and energy, often without reaching any conclusion.
But we do not think that we could solve everything more easily, if we asked the help of the design specialists. We may be reluctant about costs, have emotions about the end result, but one thing is certain: a designer knows what choices need to be made to fit the set budget and to get that overall picture we want, but to which we can not find the way alone. Each one of us has ideas and preferences we just don’t know how to put them into practice or we only get to a certain point. We often forget important details for the atmosphere of a space or simply do not consider them important. You give up budgeting to those final elements, without too much practical importance, but that will bring to our home the long-awaited image. As well as other mistakes we make out of ignorance or inexperience in the field of interior design and decoration. Precisely all these seemingly insignificant details are what a specialist would call the “final design touch”, that final element that we pass very easily, but which changes the atmosphere of the whole room.
The experience gained in the field of interior decoration makes us wholeheartedly recommend you not to abandon the complete completion of your arrangement due to lack of time, funds in the end or fatigue. It would be a pity that, for a little more effort, you cannot enjoy the familiar, welcoming and comfortable atmosphere that you have dreamed of before buying your home. The final details can be fine-tuned and in time, at a pace agreed by you, step by step, according to a predetermined plan, similar to a puzzle game, where you know the image you want to recreate and complete the pieces depending on your availability.
What are those details responsible for the final design touch?
We could call them “visual design tricks”, although it is not about magic, but about clear, concrete and logical techniques, which have the effect of creating an overall visual harmony, of a pleasant and unitary image of all the spaces you have. The color palette used, the combination of the chosen shades and their cursive passage from one room to another, the textures and design of the finishes for walls, carpets or curtains, the types of decorations used and the way they are arranged in space are just a few details that help to complete the concept of arranging your home.
A piece of resistance for each room can be a significant detail. A sofa in a strong color or even a simple chair, with a more special design, changes the monotony of the room. Be careful, however, not to abuse these accents, not to visually crowd the interior with too many “main” elements, which will shade each other.
Another important aspect in any arrangement is the attention to the materials used, the fabrics chosen for both carpets or curtains, as well as for the upholstery of the furniture, decorative feathers, blankets, etc. At present, the interior design opts for unique and personalized decorations, by combining complementary colors, in a variety of shades and textures that will delight the eye and soul, as well. Beyond the chromatic aspect and the design of the products, their quality is important, in order to enjoy the created environment for as many years as possible.
We all know that the details are what make the difference in life. The rule is even more valid in the field of interior design, where, between a spectacular layout and an interior that goes almost unnoticed, the difference lies in the existence of decorative objects, which harmonize the whole room, giving it the personal warmth of each family. Mirrors with the most original frames, supports for decorative candles, pillows and floor covers, indoor plants, natural, stabilized or even artificial, paintings, statues or boxes carefully decorated can be the color box we need for our home, those details that, even if we do not always observe them, we consider as a general state.
As we can see, there are many ideas that we can successfully use to create our own design box. By calling on the help of the team of interior designers and architects, all these “tricks” can be improved, ideas put even better in value, so that in the end we can enjoy the most beautiful and comfortable home.
