Creating Functional Living Spaces
Each family will differentiate in how they use their family. Some families might require spaces for entertaining, others families might need a relax area or work at home space.
The first step in any interior design project is the study and understanding of the way in which each space should function.
For example:
Living Rooms
The living room is a little more relaxed than the bedrooms with more space needing to be created for the room to be inviting and comfortable. The living room needs to allow space for talking, also to create good lighting, textures and excellent focal points.
Kitchens
Today, kitchens have become the room where people gather rather than just the foundation of the house as a preparation area. To improve the usability and visual appeal a good kitchen, design it with efficiency, smart storage, good materials and fixtures and appropriate lighting.
Bedrooms
Bedrooms should provide a feeling of the most relaxing experience possible. Color, furniture placement, dimmed lighting and individualized decorations set the tone.
Home Offices
As working from home grows more prevalent, your home office should be ergonomically designed, well-lit, and storing controls that enhance your efficiency.
Every space is designed by Shift Interiors with the whole of the homeowner‘s everyday life in mind, designing each space to suit not just the generic but to your specific lifestyle.
The Importance of Personalized Design
Every houses or homeowner in unique.
What about preferences. One family may go for clean, contemporary lines, muted colours, while others may choose warm textures, bold accents and classic designs.
Professional designers take time to understand:
- Personal style preferences
- Lifestyle requirements.
- Overview of existing furniture:
- Renovation plans of the future
- Budget expectations
- Long-term goals
This personal manner of planning ensures each room look individual and not attempt to appear like one big showroom.
This is a home that is true to your personality and enjoyable to function in without ever feeling trendy and temporary.
Choosing Colors That Transform Your Home
The use of color can dramatically affect the ambiance and the visual appeal of any room.
Light shades will make a space feel larger, whereas darker hues tend to give the room greater warmth. Accent colors can give a room a real individual feel without overpowering.
Even choosing the right paint colors may seem easier than it really is. It is important to coordinate all of the colors of the flooring, cabinetry, countertops, furniture and lighting.
Professional designers evaluate:
- Nature light
- Light from the sun.
- Electric lighting
- Size of rooms
- Current finishes
- Architectural features.
- Atmosphere you like to have in the rooms, ambiance you aspiring to just make the atmosphere comfortable.
This is how color palettes can be balanced across a whole home, not just in individual rooms.
Furniture Selection and Space Planning
Beautiful furniture by itself does not make a beautiful room.
The correct scale, spacing and even logical layout of the space will determine how comfortable and functional it is.
Professional space planning considers:
- Road traffic
- The proportions of the furniture:
- Seating arrangements
- Storage requirements.
- Room size
- Accessibility
Creating balance: Instead of filling rooms with furniture that is so large it becomes cumbersome or making rooms feel empty and stark, planning systematically can achieve harmony.
Each item is functional but still complements the design.
Lighting: The Foundation of Great Interior Design
Lighting is the element that most often gets overlook in favor of furniture or accessories, but it can be one of the most significant influencing factors.
Successful interiors combine multiple layers of lighting, including:
- Room lighting for general lighting
- Lighting designed for individual tasks.
- Accentuate architectural attributes by highlighting with lighting
- Ornamental lighting fixtures that are visually pleasing and part of the décor.
Natural light is another factor that is taken into account. Have fans work to activate the daylight, window location, treatments, and/or reflective surfaces are used.
Good lighting creates sense of space, adds warmth and makes space more welcoming.
Designing for Long-Term Value
Interior design should be regarded as an investment rather than a cost.
A well-designed home is often more durably popular, as the two qualities of good materials and design are rarely found together.
