Take Away All Interior Design Ideas
Why should the interior design of your home be any different from anyone else's? It could be so much easier to simply follow the crowd and show no fear about a lack of originality if every home was pre-packaged with a unit appearance. Here are some ideas to keep the interior of your home as conformist as you can, and perhaps these will allow you the simple peace of a non-designed house.
First - please be sure to remove all coordination from your home. Recent studies have
shown that balancing the cloth of your living room upholstery to the window and floor
treatments can spark sensations of appreciation and pleasure in household members and
guests. It is therefore critical for the practicing conformist to remove all hints of
matching or complimentary designs from his or her household.

After dealing with those messy matching issues, be sure to walk through the rest of the
interior searching for original art pieces such as paintings, sculpture and folk art. An
interior which includes originality in their wall décor would evoke a sense of personality
and interest in guest of the home, and it should also be noted that these guests might then
find themselves assuming the "good taste" of their host. That defeats the purpose.

To the delight of the true conformist, many interior designs are stagnating into set
themes. But you must take this a step further, and be certain that no new design or
decorating ideas are found throughout your home. Do not allow any inspiration to come
from, say, your favorite books, magazines, or movies. In fact, stop using any of things
for entertainment. They will only lead to further thought "outside the box."

Use your head people. Actually, do not use it at all, because that is the best way to avoid
any originality or sensationalism in any interior design ideas. It is, unfortunately, too
easy to find simple inspiration throughout your daily life. It is imperative that you do not
write any of these ideas down, and then you will have a chance to forget your initial
reaction and idea and move along in your simple, easy, and non-threatening little life.

Interior Design Tips
An interior designer faces many of the same questions when faced with a residential
client. Issues such as theme and fundamental style are not frequently an issue with the
home client. But there will always be concerns about painting walls, the furniture
currently inside the home, and of course the floors. There are tips to alleviate concerns
and questions regarding these specific design problems.

and questions regarding these specific design problems.
"What about this color of paint? It is too bright/dark/soft/etcetera." The first and best tip
to eliminate concerns about paint choices is to purchase a sample of paint to place on the
wall. Then, there will be a true understanding of what the actual appearance of a color
will be. However, many colors - especially darker ones - attain their true beauty from the
look of the entire wall after being layered with several coats of paint.

Trust a color pallet and a designer, but of course only follow intuition. A color that is
difficult to stomach may settle eventually to delightful surprise, or it may lead to a
horrible bellyache. Only cover a wall with a design's color that will provide security and
happiness in a homeowner.

"Should existing and endurable furniture be reupholstered?" An excellent tip to be
considered: evaluate the furniture for style and value versus the cost of the
reupholstering. An antique chair that fits the feeling of a formal living room that was
purchased for many thousands of dollars would be an excellent candidate as long as
replacing the original upholstery did not degrade its value or worth.

"I don't know what to do about my floor." Decisions about floor designs should be based on a person's budget, the room's use, and personal preference. Certain floor treatments
are incredibly expensive, such as hard oak floors, and they may not be practical in an area
where stomping kids thrash through the interior.
Carefully weigh options such as dying
carpet or laying rugs over existing hard floors. It is all a matter of personal preference.

Actually, all interior design should be a matter of personal preference. It is not worth any
expense to put something in a home that will force a homeowner to cringe every time he
or she looks around.
