3 steps to elevate your home
This is how interior designers turn the empty walls of homes, into conversation starters
We all have a wall that we keep walking past and are not sure what to do with, interior designers have 3 simple steps to turning these empty walls into focal points of your home.
Step 1: Find the wall that's holding the room back.
If your room feels almost there but not quite, resist the urge to change everything. Most of the time it's not the furniture, the colour, or the layout. It's one wall that isn't pulling its weight.
Interior designers use a simple trick to find it: stand in the doorway like a guest seeing the room for the first time and ask yourself...
1. Which wall does my eye skip over?
2. Is there a large surface with nothing to anchor it?
3. Does the room feel as deep as it actually is?
4. Where does the natural light go - and where does it stop?
5. Is there a focal point, or does everything compete equally?
