The perfect home interior for you and your family is one that is unique. Consciously or subconsciously, our homes are all geared towards our personalities, age, interest, lifestyle and priorities of each household. For example, a family with young children may prioritize a play room and an outdoor area aimed for outdoor play. A social DINK (dual income, no kids) couple, however, might find most enjoyment in featuring an impressive outdoor entertaining area and a large dining table for hosting dinner parties.
Our lifestyle generally changes over time, so it also pays to do some forward-thinking when it comes to interior design or interior decoratio to 1) save on cost and 2) reduce overconsumption - both of which will save your pocket and our environment!
So then you might be asking "how do I know how to plan out my home's interior?". Well, we've laid out some examples in the form of question-answer-action, to help demonstrate...
QUESTION
What is your favourite thing to do at home? (this is a great question to ask each person in the household.)
How do you feel when you're in the space/s that your favourite activity takes place in?
ANSWER
Having the family over for some nibbles and drinks, whilst watching all the kids play.
Love that everyone can be together in the back patio that overlooks the garden, however it's not an inviting space and is quite uncomfortable.
ACTION
You can enhance the back patio by simply upgrading any existing loose furniture. Think about the number of seating you'd like to have here to accommodate all of your loved ones comfortably and the size/layout of the space. This will help you determine what type of furniture to look for (e.g. an outdoor modular sofa, or a sofa with two armchairs, etc).
Add layers to the space to create a warm and inviting feel. Decorative cushions and an outdoor rug will do the trick, and remember to dot some beautiful potted plants around the area to add to the outdoor living room feel.
We hope that this example gave you an insight into some of the questions to consider when it comes to the way your family live, and ways to improve or change the space to make it more conducive to the way your family live. If you need help bridging functional elements with aesthetics, then you know where to find us!
