Ten decorating mistakes interior designers never make

Below are decorating mistakes that interior designers in Bangalore  should avoid:

Mistake # 1: Buying all furniture at the same height

A simple style of mistake can prevent a room from reaching its full potential. You may have chosen the best design pieces and not fall for something as obvious as that they are all the same size, which will make your room look boring and without any grace or balance.

Mistake # 2: Using dark colour furniture in small spaces

We have become infatuated with a beautiful sofa in black tones. The downside is that its destination is a small living room, and the dark, heavy, and bulky pieces go against you; you will only create an overwhelming and tiring room.

When it comes to living in a small apartment, we need to look for lighter fabrics and simple finishes. Opt for sofas or curtains made of light fabrics and choose a color palette that reflects the light, such as white, sand, or dusty pink.

Mistake # 3: Hanging Art Too High

When you think you’ve managed to find the perfect work of art for your walls, you’ve only managed to go half the way, and that is because most of us hang our artwork wrong.

We usually hang our pictures too high and in too obvious places, so our pieces do not stand out and are confused with books and furniture. All the money and effort invested has been for nothing.

Try placing a piece of art in an unexpected and subtle location, something that will surprise and stand out. Remember that eye level will guide you when hanging your pieces on the wall.

Mistake # 4: Following trends

Another mistake we make when we feel insecure is to let ourselves be completely carried away by everything we tell in decoration blogs and magazines. We are not clear about what we want, and we forget what we really need.

Mistake # 5: Having a single point of light

When it glows, we believe that just by hanging a single ceiling lamp gives us that global ambient light, we have already solved the lighting issue. Nothing is further from achieving that perfect atmosphere where we feel good and in harmony.

Mistake # 6: Buying oversized furniture

Sometimes we fall in love with a piece and make the hasty decision to buy it without organizing what our interior will be like. This can lead us to create a chaotic design, where nothing matches anything, in which the pieces are either too small, giving a somewhat ridiculous appearance, or too large, thus dwarfing the space.

Mistake # 7: Treating plants as an extra decorative accessory

 It is widespread that we limit ourselves to placing our plants in corners and shelves once our home is designed. We usually don’t think of them as just another decorative element, and just as important as a sofa or a dining table.

Mistake # 8: Investing in small and cheap decorative accessories

Very often, we choose to invest in small and cheap accessories to decorate our home. Thinking that we have a reduced budget, we make the mistake of filling the house with these elements instead of investing in a single more expensive piece.

Mistake # 9: Pushing furniture against the wall

It is widespread for people to place furniture against the wall to gain more space, which is totally uncertain. Instead, create small groups of furniture, move them away from the wall, and frame them inside a rug. You will create a feeling of greater spaciousness.

Mistake # 10: Overusing a Good Idea

He has not ever fallen into overusing a decorative trend. We found out that mustard is in fashion, and we invaded our home with this color. Horror! With this, you can only saturate the environment and get bored with it in an instant.
