Five interior design tips

It’s never easy to design the interior of a home, with so many options to choose from. There are however quite a few tips and tricks out there. At VIP Environment we have selected five interior design tips to make it easier for you to design your home.

1. Go really dark or really light in small rooms

It can be very difficult to decorate and renovate a small room, simply because its small. Light colours can help by reflecting all the natural light that enters through the windows or door of the room. Embrace all the natural light that enters the room by choosing a very light grey or calming whites for a light room. The other option is to go really dark, to give the walls an illusion of receding. To do this you need to choose a dark colour and the right lights. Dark colours can quickly give a room that special luxury interior design feeling.

2. Select the right mirrors

Mirror mirror on the wall, can completely transform a room. Mirrors can be used in so many different ways with different purposes. It can add light, open up a wall, increase the room size feeling and it can make the ceiling look higher. Mirrors also come in all different shapes and sizes, which makes them perfect in all rooms. Choose a mirror that reflects the feel of the room as well as your personality, a mirror isn’t just a mirror.

3. Use baskets

Wicker, metal or cotton, no matter what material you choose for your basket, they make a great addition to any room. Baskets add that extra storage unit to all rooms and they provide a great detail to the room by being placed under end tables, in TV stands or next to the coffee table. It’s a great way to accessorise your living room furniture and bedroom furniture.

4. Rugs all over the place

Adding contemporary rugs to any room is the perfect way to soften floors, and it can also be used as a way to decorate empty walls. Using rugs as a part of your luxury interior design adds a warming and calming feeling to the room.

5. Avoid too many legs

When looking for dining room furniture, many people will choose furniture with a lot of legs. Go for a dining room table with one leg or two at the most to make the space around the table more open. High end furniture brands such as Hülsta offer dining tables with this elegant solution, such as Hülsta’s T80 and T90 tables. Choosing chairs without four legs can also help make more space around the table, choose a freestanding base, like the Hülsta S300.

If you are interested in high end furniture, you can find our furniture store between Marbella and Estepona. We have more than 30 years’ experience in retailing exclusive furniture from Hülsta and Rolf Benz. Come by and we will be happy to help you with your interior design.

Is there anything nicer than snuggling up under a warm, soft blanket on long, dark winter evenings? Products made from wool and cashmere are warm and breathe at the same time. They store an enormous amount of air and create a cozy feeling of security when you are snuggled into a blanket. The effect also works the other way round: just like body heat, cold can also be stored! But this temperature barrier is permeable. A constant exchange of air is possible - nobody gets into a sweat unintentionally. This is also aided by the ability to retain moisture in vapour form and move it away from the body. This creates a healthy, dry warming effect. Basically, every fibre will wrinkle under the influence of pressure, moisture and heat. However, products made from natural fibres have a naturally high crease resistance and quickly recover from the effects mentioned above. The fibre structure of wool, more precisely its spiral crimping, ensures that the fibre always returns to its original state. Therefore, wrinkles disappear quickly by vigorously shaking out and smoothing out. This process is supported by moisture, for example an air bath overnight: ideally hang up in a slightly damp room or outside and brush through the next day if necessary - the wrinkles have disappeared.
