7 Basic Elements of Interior Design

There are 7 key elements of interior design, and seven often seems like a magic number... Learn the ingredients that go into your favorite recipes and you will be able to cook better. Learning the design elements that flow with your favorite style will also help you master the decoration.

Colour

is more than just an aesthetic choice, it can also influence the overall mood and feeling of a room. While blue and green are usually perceived as calm and calm, and yellow is often associated with words like happy and optimistic, most people think of red as a passionate and intense color.

Form

One can take organic forms that are natural and irregular, such as curved and abstract forms or geometric shapes that have sharp lines and edges created by humans.

Light

Have you ever been annoyed by photos taken in low light, but then you already know the power of light perception? If not, it is probably because you have been annoyed by having to take a photo in the lower light.

When choosing the lighting of a room, it should be taken into account that the light should be dimmable. High quality lighting is indispensable, whether natural or artificial, in combination with a high quality light source.

Line

If there is a space to draw an object, its outline should begin with a line and consider the line as the perimeter of the shape itself.

Design experts say horizontal lines create a sense of security, while vertical lines are expressive and bold. A line can be as simple as a line expressing movement, or as complex as the shape of the object itself.

Dynamic lines that follow their own rules can add a fun and exciting touch to a room when used strategically, but they are also an important part of any interior design project.

Pattern

While patterns can give life and movement to a room, too many clashing patterns look messy, so be careful when choosing your favorite prints. These patterns usually appear as wallpaper or fabric, but can also occur when light and other design elements are used. They are a great addition to any interior design project, even a small one, and they are usually available in many colors and sizes.

Texture

Not to be confused with patterns, texture is how an object literally feels, and it can mean anything from the way it feels to what you feel about the object when you just look at it. It is especially important to address this part of the house frequently, and it can help you start the day on the right foot, even if it is only for a few minutes at a time.

Space

There are two basic types of space that should be considered: 2-D space, which takes into account the length and width of the room, and 3-D space, which covers the height. Only 2 D rooms are important when thinking of carpets and rugs, but you should also think of 3 D rooms when adding new shelves or furniture. It is also important to leave enough empty negative space to allow fluid and easy navigation and to visually divide the space. Last but not least, rooms are the focus of practically every design decision. Get more info in this wonderful article by The Spruce.
