Interior Design 101

An excellent place to find your interior design style is in the basics. Often, these practices can be helpful for everyone. Furthermore, knowing the trends can help you highlight specific rooms in your home, points of interest in those rooms, and even specific designs you created. Understanding these trends can also show you what's been around forever and is likely to stay popular versus momentary changes in the industry.

Below are some basic principles of interior design that you can use to start re-styling your home:

  • Unity: This is a theme, color, texture, or pattern that connects everything in a space, such as a specific room or your entire home, making it cohesive. For example, you may have wood window features in each room that give your home a natural, earthy tone.
  • Contrast: This is the basic principle that opposite colors can make an object, wall, or area stand out. The classic example of contrast is black and white, and using this, you can guide people's eyes to specific things in your home.
  • Emphasis: This is a highlight feature in a room. You can emphasize a room's feature with texture, pattern, placement, or color to ensure you and others look at it as they move through a space.
  • Balance: Having too much of one thing can make a room feel flat and dull or hide details; the same is true of having too little. Finding a balance of a space's colors, textures, patterns, and other aspects is crucial to ensuring it has the desired feeling.
  • Scale: This is all about the size of a room and what you choose to put in it. For example, a small room with low ceilings does better with smaller furniture that matches the size of the room.
  • Proportion: This is how objects in a space feel when you compare them. For example, a large room with tall, wide cabinets may benefit from an equally large table that can help fill the space.

Regardless of your ultimate design style, these principles can help you maximize and emphasize what you want as you design your home.
