1. Create a perfect floor plan
The first tip is getting the layout right, especially for important spots like the kitchen. Make sure there’s enough space for you to move around comfortably, ideally 3-4 feet of passing space to ensure an effective and pleasing flow.
2. Keep Things Organized
Everything has a home.. This is a must! Knowing where your items are and where they belong saves you time and stress. Remember, not everything needs to be out on display.
3. Combine style and function
Choose styles you love and create a cohesive, thoughtful design throughout your home. But don’t forget that the furniture you use daily should also be functional and make sense for your lifestyle.
4. Maximize Lighting
Lighting is very important to create a stylish and functional space and should be planned thoughtfully. Different rooms need different kinds of light. Bedrooms should also have relaxing, dim light aside from normal lighting, while kitchens require bright light so you can see well when preparing food. Keep windows open and bright to allow as much natural light in as possible.
5. Practical & Welcoming Entryway
Your entryway will be used frequently, and should have a space where you can grab things you need when you’re coming or going. Keep things handy and neat, and add stylish and warm touches to create a welcoming space.
