1. Discover Your Personal Style: Create a mood board with images, colours and textures that resonate with you. This will serve as a visual guide for your design choices. Consider whether you prefer a modern, minimalist, traditional or eclectic style for example and use this as a foundation for your design decisions.
2. Determine the Functionality of the Space: Consider the activities that will take place in each area and how you want the space to function. Understanding the intended use of each space will guide your design choices.
3. Set a Realistic Budget: Consider all aspects of the project including furniture, decor, lighting and any professional services you may require. Be realistic and allocate your budget according to your priorities. This will help you make informed decisions and avoid overspending.
4. Plan One Room at a Time: Instead of feeling overwhelmed by the entire project, break it down by planning one room at a time. This allows you to focus on the details of each space and ensures a cohesive design throughout your home. Begin with the rooms that are most important to you or those that will have the greatest impact on your daily life.
5. Hire an Interior Designer: If you find the process challenging or want professional expertise, consider hiring an interior designer. A designer can help to navigate potential challenges and translate your vision into a cohesive and well-executed design plan. Collaborating with a designer can streamline the process and elevate the overall outcome of your project.
