Interior design is a design process whose objective is to create spaces that are functional, pleasant and aesthetic, which reconcile the needs and preferences of each of the people living in your home. Optimizing the available square meters, circulation between the different elements present in the room, visual balance as well as technical and budgetary constraints, are all criteria to consider for a successful interior design.

Identify your needs

Before you start designing your interior, you must identify your needs, your preferences and your priorities. Also take into account the habits of the members of your household and the activities they usually do. This way, you will be able to assign functions to the different rooms to be furnished in order to optimize them. Then analyze the spaces you have available and take precise measurements of each room, taking into account their architectural constraints: windows, direction of opening doors, beams, location of radiators, ceiling height, etc. You will thus be able to see what it will or will not be possible to consider for the layout of your interior.

Arrange your entrance

Place of passage par excellence, the entrance is a crucial point of your home since it gives a first impression of your entire interior. It is therefore important to arrange it well so that those who visit it feel good there from the first minutes.

Before starting its layout, analyze the space and identify the constraints and specific needs of your entrance. Make sure there is enough space to move around easily and accommodate your guests.

 

Optimize the organization of your entrance by opting for storage solutions such as shelves, coat racks or a shoe cabinet. This way it will always stay clean and tidy. Don't forget to choose practical and suitable furniture, such as a mirror to check your appearance before going out or a small bench to sit on to take off your shoes comfortably. Finally, add decorative touches in line with the style of your home to make your entrance welcoming: plants, rugs, decorative objects... let your imagination run wild!

Arrange your living room

The living room is often considered the nerve center of your home since it is the place where family and friends gather to spend quality time together. For a living room to be well organized, it is important to take into account certain key elements. First of all, choose furniture carefully based on the size and layout of your living room. Opt for furniture that combines comfort and quality and matches the desired style of decoration. Furniture arrangement is also crucial. Organize them in such a way as to promote conviviality and communication between occupants and favor smooth circulation thanks to space-saving furniture. Also consider decorating your living room with colorful cushions and curtains, cozy throws or rugs to create a warm atmosphere conducive to relaxation.

Arrange your dining room

The dining room is where the family gathers for meals and where guests are often entertained. Start by choosing a dining table that suits the space available as well as a sufficient number of chairs for the number of occupants usually present . If you have a small space, or simply to optimize the space, choose an extendable table or a round table which facilitates circulation. Also focus on hanging lights, an elegant tablecloth, candles, or even floral arrangements to create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.

Arrange your bedroom

The bedroom is an intimate space where we rest and recharge our batteries. If you want to design an adult bedroom, consider storage needs. Opt for example for integrated storage furniture, a drawer on wheels hidden under your bed or spacious wardrobes to keep the bedroom well organized. Also make sure you choose a comfortable, properly sized bed that doesn't obstruct circulation in the room. For a child's bedroom, consider storage needs for toys and clothes. Consider creative solutions such as colorful storage boxes or playful shelves to keep the room clean, decorated and always tidy. When it comes to decorating, choose light, neutral colors and calming patterns to create an atmosphere conducive to sleep and relaxation. Don't forget velvet cushions, cocooning throws, blankets and rugs to bring softness to your bedroom.

Create your office area

Setting up a work space in the house is essential, whether for teleworking , studying or simply to benefit from a corner dedicated to tasks for which you do not want to be disturbed. To create a functional office area, choose a quiet, well-lit location in your home. Opt for a desk adapted to your needs in terms of dimensions and which will allow you to store your supplies and documents. If the room or location chosen is small, do not hesitate to add wall shelves to create additional storage space. Then choose a comfortable, ergonomic desk chair with adjustable height and ideally armrests to rest your arms. As for decoration, add elements that stimulate your creativity and productivity, such as colorful paintings, green plants or objects that you love.
