Design Tips for a Harmonious Interior
01
Clear plan.
Before you go shopping or painting, it's important to have a clear vision. Create a mood board with colors, materials, and style inspiration. This will help you make informed choices and prevent impulsive purchases. At Smaak, we can create your mood board together.
02
Think in layers.
Layers create an exciting interior. Combine hard materials with soft fabrics. Add texture with rugs, cushions, or curtains. And don't forget the lighting: use a mix of basic, mood, and accent lighting to create depth. Not sure how to go about this? Contact us, and together we'll find the perfect plan.
03
Relationship.
A common mistake is placing furniture that doesn't match the scale of the room. A large sofa in a small room? Or a lamp that's too small above a large dining table? Make sure the furniture, accessories, and artwork complement the room's proportions and complement each other. Need help figuring this out? At Smaak, we'll work together to find the perfect harmony.
04
Natural flow.
Consider the flow of people and how they move through a space. A good layout feels intuitive. Arrange furniture so that it opens up the space and invites people to explore or walk through. Too many obstacles or clutter can make an interior feel cluttered. Organizing your interior together? We'd love to! Feel free to contact us.
05
Negative space.
Empty spaces are just as important as filled ones. You don't have to fill every wall or corner. Negative space gives your interior room to breathe and makes unique pieces stand out. Dare to choose simplicity as part of your design.
Finally
A harmonious interior isn't about following trends, but about finding balance: in color, material, shape, and feel. With these 5 tips, you'll lay a strong foundation for an interior that's both beautiful and livable.
