Tastes are known to vary. But regardless of whether you have a large or small apartment, you should avoid these mistakes when decorating. You will be surprised how much it makes a difference.
1. The crowd does it!
When it comes to decoration, the rule is: find the right size. To make your home look cosy rather than cool, it is important that you don’t decorate too little. A few plants, cushions or a carpet can make a big difference. But be careful: too much decoration can quickly make your home look like a junk shop.
2. Never shop without a plan!
Of course, not everything does not always have to come from one manufacturer, because this quickly makes the apartment look unimaginative, impersonal and like a furniture store. But if you buy across-the-board, it gets expensive because you have to redecorate again and again to make sure everything fits. You can get your own individual look even if you plan in advance what’s missing. And what not.
3. Don’t forget rooms!
In order for the overall picture to be harmonious, not only the living room should be decorated, but also all other rooms. The hallway should also receive a little attention.
4. Say goodbye to chaos!
If you make an effort with the decoration, you won’t get anything out of it if there’s cable clutter lying around or the shelves are untidy. We are in our own four walls and not in the office, so we can make any cables disappear in pretty decorative baskets. Not only do they look good, they also bring order to the home.
5. The colourfulness is decisive!
In general, dark colours absorb light. Not only do your rooms look darker when you choose dark wall colours, they also visually reduce them. Bright tones, on the other hand, make a room larger. In addition, furniture and accessories should not be tone on tone, otherwise they quickly become a uniform pulp.
