Define your style

This is arguably the most important step in the process. Without a clear sense of your personal style, it will be very difficult to create a cohesive design. Do some research and look at photos of different styles to get an idea of what you like.

 Know your budget

Another key factor in the planning process is setting a budget and making sure you stick to it. This will help you determine how much you can realistically spend on furniture, fabrics, and other design elements that you want to add to your home.

 Measure your space

Before you start shopping for furniture or other items, it’s important to know the size of your space. This will help you select pieces that are the right scale for the room and will fit together well when everything is in there.

Create a mood board

Once you have an idea of your style and budget, you can start putting together a mood board. This is a visual representation of your design concept. You can use magazines, online images, and fabric swatches to create your mood board. Pinterest is a brilliant place to put together different boards for all of your rooms, and it’s great for finding different style inspiration.

Choose a colour palette

Another important step in the design process is choosing a colour palette as this will help you create a cohesive look in your space. Choose colours that complement each other and work well together, as well as thinking about your favourite colours that you wouldn’t mind seeing every day.

Interior design can be a fun, rewarding, and challenging endeavour. It can also be expensive, so starting small and working your way up is important.
