Forewarned is forearmed! Or 5 annoying mistakes in interior design that everyone made at least once in their life

At the stage of planning and design of the future interior of the house, the concept always seems perfect. It doesn't matter if the pictures are formulated in the mind or on paper! After all, only in fact mistakes begin to appear (large, small), the correction of which entails not only "alterations", but also unnecessary financial costs!

Good afternoon dear friends!

The situation is especially typical for people who, one might say, "debut" in their status - new settlers. Since where the first house is, there are the first construction and design "jambs". Although! He who does not make mistakes does nothing! And in order to to minimize, and possibly completely eliminate errors in the design of your homeI have prepared this small list.

After all, it's more pleasant when everything goes according to plan, and the perfection of the repair triumphs over minor errors! And not vice versa.

Mistake # 1. Buying everything at once. The desire to buy in advance (not only everything you need, but also completely useless) is fraught with the organization of the atmosphere of "bad taste" in your home! Therefore, choose furniture, textiles and decor items gradually. Following not the offered market temptation, but your sound logic and interior concept.

It is more correct to decorate your home with a small, but concrete, than many, but useless! Moreover, it is always easier to buy in addition than to arrange a sale from already made acquisitions!

Mistake # 2. Color variety. Many flowers are good when it is a Pavloposad shawl, in which you went to a thematic celebration a couple of times and put it away in the closet. And if such a "funny" color scattering haunts you every day in the interior, then it is not festive at all, but sad. Even psychologically exhausting, I would say.

Therefore, do not mix the incongruous! Do you like bright touches? No problem! Choose a maximum of two or three. And complement with neutral shades (white, beige, gray-blue). Then the balance will be maintained, and the atmosphere in the house will be harmonious.

Mistake number 3. Chasing style. It is quite difficult to maintain the design of a house in a uniform style, and sometimes it is completely inappropriate. For example, a trendy industrial style is good for a kitchen, but in a bathroom or bedroom it will not be comfortable for everyone! Or shabby chic. Great in the bedroom, but in the living room, to put it mildly, not for everybody.

It is more correct to endow one of the rooms in the apartment with a pronounced style, while making others more neutral and simple.

Mistake # 4. Incorrect proportions. The presence of huge furniture in a small-sized apartment or a miniature one - in a large one, surprisingly enough, is found all the time! And it looks awkward! Therefore, when choosing furniture in the salon, have on hand a diagram of your room with dimensions. And feel free to draw to scale the purchase you are planning.

After all, the trading floor and your house have completely different parameters, which means that you can easily succumb to an optical illusion.

Mistake number 5. Underestimate the role of lighting. Lighting is tricky! Which 100% will make itself felt, if you do not take into account in advance the style of the interior, the color palette, the arrangement of furniture and decor. Too much light can “destroy” the airy, “light” interior, while low lighting will negate decorative accents and touches.

So, in order not to get into such an unpleasant situation, use several types of lighting (ceiling, wall, floor, table). This will give you some flexibility when setting up your home!
