“Your Home should tell the story of who you are, and be a Collection of what you Love.” But most of the people make the most common mistakes that lead to a complicated and confusing space. One should always focus on being clear in the head about one thing and that is to be real and clear about your taste and bring out the most in your space. Now, lets talk about the most common interior mistakes that are made by most people.
A 2D floor plan provides a simple and clean overview of the s[ace to be designed. It is one of the most useful and most important tools that can be used when constructing a new house or when renovating any old space. Sometimes, mostly in old constructed spaces, people don't have the floor plans. But it is totally possible to measure each and every corner of the house accurately. Ask your interior designer to do this for you. With proper measurements and floor plan, One can easily plan the walls, circulation and the room layout of any house. They are also extremely important in figuring out furniture & furnishing layouts and arrangement.
3D modeling has changed the way we design; for the better. Not only does 3D modeling help the designers and the customer visualize space requirements, but also improves design efficiency and accuracy. A 3D design enables you and your designer to make a list of things you will need to complete the project and keep it with you when shopping. This will help you avoid impulse purchases that don’t fit your aesthetic.
NOT TRUSTING YOUR INTERIOR DESIGNER
The most important ingredient in any relationship is trust. I’m not suggesting blind trust, but I am making the point that you need to let them take the lead. A designer should push you out of your design comfort zone, and ask you to take a risk or two. If they’re not suggesting ideas that surprise you or excite you and sometimes even contradict you, then you probably could have done the job yourself. It is really important that you let the specialists do their job.
And for obvious reasons, hiring interior design services will help you avoid any kind of costly mistakes, and thereby help you save your money and increase the value of your space.
NOT FIXING A BUDGET
The third most common mistake is that many people don't plan how much money they have available and are comfortable spending on their interior design project. Don't forget to ask your interior designer to make a list for you about what you need and how much it will cost you. Also, it is important to keep a reasonable amount of buffer funds. The expenditure list is called a BOQ (Bill of quantity). This is a list of everything you want to do in your home. While you may not realistically be able to do everything on the list in a 100% accurate manner, it still gives you a place to start and of course you have those buffer funds!
NOT MAKING ENOUGH STORAGE
So you hired the best interior designer for your dream space, You worked out the best options and your dream house is a clear picture of your personality and everything worked out just perfect. You love the beautiful new house because its so new, fresh and neat. But then you eventually start living in this house, and the real struggle shows up; the house is no more organized because there isn't enough storage. Having your clutter on display is one of the most horrible things you can do to your perfectly styled house. Ask you interior designer to work out the best options of storage for you whether its hidden or visible; so that your dream house never starts looking old.
NOT ACCESSORIZING ENOUGH
It is no secret that the right accessories along with a lot of creativity will make your space look more alive and tasteful. Most people make this common mistake of not accessorizing the room. Using vintage, bespoke, and custom pieces in your home will create a unique space that expresses your personal style. Don't miss this last but most important part of you interior design journey thinking that the house is done and these accessories are just add-ons that can be taken care of later. Make sure you complete this important step before you consider the house complete.
WANTING EVERYTHING YOU LIKE IN ONE ROOM
While it's true that "anything goes" when it comes to your decorating style, there are some thumb rules to follow to help your home look its best. People tend to have everything they like in one room and this is a very common interior blunder. Even if you have a small house. make sure that everything that you want has its own identity and space in your house. Ask your interior designer to help you out to plan the best option for your preferences and needs.
HAVING ONLY ONE LIGHT SOURCE
So often, people move into a new home and never think twice about the lighting.
This leaves most homes with either dimly lit spaces or harsh lighting. Or sometimes both!
The trick to ensuring every room in your house is comfortable and well-lit is to ask your interior designer to make you a lighting plan that includes ambient, task, and accent lighting. You can achieve this by layering your lighting at different levels and intensities. A combination of overhead lights, wall lights, and floor and table lamps will provide even lighting throughout your home.
A well-thought-out lighting plan will ensure each room has enough light to perform any task that is usually done in that particular space.
HANGING CURTAINS TOO LOW
Another all-too-common interior design mistake is hanging curtains at or just above the window frame. This can make windows seem smaller and actually blocks natural light if the curtains don’t open wide enough to leave the windows completely unobstructed.
Hanging curtains just below the ceiling and allowing them to extend all the way down to the floor, will make windows appear larger. Be sure the rod extends far enough past the window frame to ensure the window is completely uncovered when the curtains are open.
VISIBLE ELECTRICAL WIRES
Nothing ruins a beautiful room like an ugly tangle of cords and wires. Electrical cords may be unavoidable but that doesn’t mean you can’t disguise them or tuck them out of sight. The best way to hide cords is to run them inside the wall so they disappear completely. But this isn’t always an option. Alternatively, you can paint cords the same color as the wall to make them less noticeable.
Thankfully, with homes becoming more automated and an ever-increasing stream of gadgets to charge, creative ways to integrate technology in your home are on the rise.
