Home furnishing tips: Four key points to create a warm home
How to make a house a warm and comfortable home? We can design furniture and furnishings from four aspects: reasonable planning of space layout, accurate positioning of home style, scientific matching of space colors, and clever use of accessories to embellish and create our own ideal home.
01| Reasonable planning of space layout: make the home space "live"
Functional zoning, orderly movement and quietness
Before doing soft decoration design work, you need to plan the dynamic and quiet areas of the house. The dynamic area is used to meet daily life activities, such as the living room, dining room, and kitchen; the quiet area needs to ensure a certain degree of quietness so that people can relax and rest, such as the bedroom and study.
Optimize the moving line and move unimpeded
Reasonable moving line design can make your activities at home smoother. A reasonable moving line design requires leaving enough passages when placing furniture, and the main passage is kept at about 80 cm wide so that people can pass through easily.
Adapt to the space and choose the right furniture
The choice of furniture is extremely important for the entire interior. When choosing furniture, you should consider whether it is suitable for the space. For example, a narrow space is not suitable for a large sofa, you can choose some small and exquisite furniture.
02| Find the right home style positioning: highlight unique personality
Diverse styles, choose as you like
Nowadays, home styles are varied, including simple and fashionable modern minimalist style, natural and fresh Nordic style, etc. You can choose according to your preferences. Modern minimalist style fits your fast-paced life, simple and easy to maintain; if you like leisurely and comfortable, you can choose Nordic style, and you can feel the comfort brought by nature at home.
Unified elements and harmonious style
After determining the style, it is also necessary to maintain harmony with the decorative elements. Materials, lines, and decorations need to echo each other. In the modern minimalist style, we should use more textured materials such as metal, glass, and leather. For decoration, we can choose abstract paintings and geometric ornaments to make the whole space look more coordinated.
Mix and match to avoid clutter
Mix and match can collide with interesting styles, but you need to first determine the tone of the entire space style, and then superimpose elements with the same emotions on this basis, and the superimposed elements should be controlled at about 30%, otherwise it will appear very chaotic.
03| Scientifically match the color of the space: create a comfortable atmosphere
Color ratio, just right
The color of the space can be matched according to the ratio of 6:3:1, including basic color, theme color and decorative color. Basic colors such as walls and ceilings are generally white, beige, gray and other neutral colors to set a calm tone for the home; theme colors are used on furniture and curtains, and you can choose your favorite brighter colors to add vitality to the home; decorative colors can be used through small accessories, green plants, etc. to add some vitality to the space.
Clever use of colors
Color can affect our mood and state. Warm colors are suitable for living rooms and dining rooms; cool colors are quiet and peaceful, and can be placed in bedrooms and study rooms. If you have trouble sleeping, avoid red and purple in the bedroom, and soft cool colors such as light blue and light green can help you relax and fall asleep quickly.
Follow the light and adjust flexibly
Light has a great impact on color. In a room with good lighting, dark colors can highlight the texture; in a room with poor lighting, light colors can increase the light in the room. Moreover, different materials reflect light differently. Metal and glass reflect light strongly, making the colors brighter; wood and fabric reflect light weakly, making the colors look softer.
04| Use decorations to enhance the texture of space
Use moderate amounts to avoid piling up
Small decorations can be used to decorate the space, but be careful not to use too many. Too many small ornaments and paintings will make people dazzled. Especially for a small space like a bedroom, choosing one or two exquisite paintings and a few green plants is enough.
Clear priorities and prominent focus
Every space needs a visual focus, such as a large painting on the background wall of the sofa in the living room, or a uniquely shaped ornament in the entrance hall, which will attract your attention as soon as you enter the door. Other decorations can help to highlight the focus and make the home more layered.
Material color and unified style
The material and color of the accessories must follow the overall style. For the Nordic style, you can choose wooden, cotton and linen accessories, matched with natural wood color and white, which are fresh and natural. If the style does not match, the overall look will feel awkward.
Reasonable planning of space layout is the foundation, making the home practical and spacious; finding the right home style to give the home a soul and show personality; scientifically matching space colors to create an atmosphere and a pleasant mood; using accessories to embellish and enhance the texture and add the finishing touch. These four aspects work closely together, and none of them can be missing. When designing soft furnishings, spend more time and consider comprehensively to create your own ideal home that is warm, comfortable, and beautiful.
