What Makes A Good Design (Intro)
There are some interior designers that everyone knows and loves. Their style or design perspective resonates with many of us. But why do we love their designs so much? How do their designs always inspire us or catch our attention? Well, here’s one person’s opinion on what makes a good design, and what these designers are doing so well!
Creating A Color Story
When it comes to interior design basics, a great place to start is colors. In other posts, I’ve used the term “color story.” Because that’s exactly what colors do for a design. They tell a story to every person that walks into the room about the person that room belongs too. That’s why each of us have different preference when it comes to design styles or trends.
Adding Layers
Have you ever walked into a space and thought, “this is a little bland or boring.” Maybe it was an apartment display or a vacant house. But it was clear that it just didn’t feel like a warm or welcoming space. I would venture a guess, that the most likely cause was due to a lack of layers! Adding layers is an important part of the design process.
