Do you want your space to be exciting, energetic, relaxing, and laid back? Deciding on the ambiance will help guide you to the appropriate colors, textures, and shapes for a space.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Find Inspiration<\/h2>\n<p>Head to the homes of stylish friends and flip through the pages of your favorite magazines to find looks you love. Think about what you enjoy about your favorite spaces. If you live alone, this is a great time to explore new aesthetics and take design risks.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Be Realistic<\/h2>\n<p>We all have an interior design ideal we strive for, but you have to factor your lifestyle into your choices. You should rethink delicate fabrics if you have young children or pets. If you have a large family, you\u2019ll need to focus on function and form to ensure the furniture will fit in a space without looking or feeling overcrowded.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Declutter<\/h2>\n<p>Regardless of where you\u2019re at in the design process, it\u2019s never too early (or late) to declutter the space. Removing unessential items will help you see what the room truly needs. If you\u2019re decorating a room from the ground up, think carefully about each item before introducing it. Does it fit your desired aesthetic? Will you enjoy looking at it every time you visit the room?<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Check the Numbers<\/h2>\n<p>Few things are worse than finding a sectional or armchair you can\u2019t live without to realize it won\u2019t fit into the space allotted. Grab your measuring tape and use a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whdesignsforlife.com\/room-planner.inc\">room planner<\/a>\u00a0to create the perfect layout. Brainstorm, and don\u2019t be afraid to alter your ideas as you go.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Select a Color Palette<\/h2>\n<p>Color brings a room together and gives it character. You can choose a bold color palette that enhances an eclectic or maximalist interior, or keep your palette neutral and use furniture and decorative accessories to add pops of colors. Most rooms look best with three colors, used in the 60\/30\/10 format. A featured color takes up 60% of space, a secondary color uses 30%, and an accent color brightens the remaining 10% of the area.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Purchase Anchor Pieces First<\/h2>\n<p>Select your sofa and coffee table before choosing accent tables and floor lamps. It\u2019s easier to match smaller items to large ones than vice versa. Choosing anchor pieces first will also help you determine how many secondary things you need or can fit in the room.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Contact Us<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whdesignsforlife.com\/designersearchresults.aspx?dstate=nj\">Our team<\/a>\u00a0of experienced interior designers is ready to help you create aesthetically appealing spaces throughout your home.
