There are some principles or steps for whatever we do in our personal or professional life. And interior designing also has some principles. The professionals working with an interior design company in Noida or any city/country or people who are willing to have a gorgeous look for their home/workplace must know those principles. Have a look at those principles in brief before you move ahead for the execution of a project:
Balance
It develops an equilibrium feeling in design. Usually, it relates to approximating or equalising an object’s visual weight. Interior designers create it with colour, shape, texture, and pattern. It is of three types:
- Formal or symmetrical – You must have such a balance for a formal space or traditional home. In creating this balance, designers split the space into two sides with mirrors on each side. For example, you can place two chairs on the two sides of a coffee table in your living room.
- Informal or asymmetrical – There is no exact duplication of colours, forms, patterns, shapes, and lines in such a balance creation. For instance, you can place two chairs on the other side of a sofa
- Radial – For creating such a balance, designers keep the central focal point and allied materials in mind and do radiation around it. For example, you can take a round dining table.
Rhythm
Like music, rhythm in interior design relates to the creation of patterns with the contrast and repetitions for visual interests. For obtaining such a visual interest, you can apply the same shape or pattern, or colour at several different levels. Professional designers do it to draw the attention of your home visitors and encourage them to move their eyes all round the home space they are in.
For example, you can place or hang paintings, pillows, and allied decorative items of a single colour and eco it by placing the rug of the same colour.
Harmony
For the creation of harmony, interior designers make all elements act at a time to produce a unified message. It gives inhabitants a sense of restfulness. In your home design, you can just use a single colour without considering the shape, texture, and size of the forms to create harmony.
Emphasis
Giving equal importance to everything in a room makes it boring or scattered. For having an excitement, your room or a home space needs an anchor. Professional interior designers can place a window or fireplace with an attractive look on your consent. As per your choice and need, you can select and have an in-built focal point by arranging a few furniture pieces around it.
Proportion and scale
Proportion has a close association with one part’s size to another while scale relates to the relationship between an object’s size and the space where the object is placed. For example, you should avoid placing a big overstuffed sectional object in a small room.
Details
The principle of details is micro while all the five previous principles balance, harmony, rhythm, emphasis, proportion and scale is macro. Minimalist designs that are basically for less details are simple in look but are the toughest job to execute. Designers have to consider materials, design, finishing, and work procedure as a whole process.
Unity
All decorators, interior designers, and architects work together for the creation of a unified space where every design element has a correlation. A home has a relationship and flow in all elements of design to make it a wholesome and healthy space. As a homeowner, you should extend the unity around your abode.
Conclusion
Keeping all the design elements in mind and implementing the same in your home design and construction will help you have a home you dreamt of. You can consult an interior designer or architect in your local city if you find having all these principles in your home is a tough job for you.
