Five considerations when redesigning a room

There is nothing more exciting than coming into a bare room which is filled with opportunities. An empty room presents the opportunity for a new design, new furniture and new solutions and is the perfect place to make new memories. When redesigning a room, there are a few things to keep in mind. Let’s take a closer look at five things to consider (in no particular order) when redesigning a room to make it personal and inviting.

Find the purpose of the room

It’s important to first determine the purpose of the room. Is this room your new bedroom with a fancy box sprung bed and modern bedroom furniture or is it a luxurious living room with a recliner sofa and end tables? Let’s say it is your living room. What purpose does this living room serve you? If it’s a place where you and your family will spend the whole weekend watching films, then maybe you need to consider a sofa bed. If it’s a living room where your children spend a lot of time, spruce it up with a proper TV stand and storage units for all the games and consoles. The main idea here is to decide what purpose you want to give the room and then design the room around that purpose, it’s all up to you and your imagination.

Decide on a colour scheme

Go for a colour scheme that gives the room a cohesive feeling as soon as you enter it, a place you feel content and comfortable. It’s not only the colour of walls, floor and ceiling that needs to be a part of the colour scheme, but also the rugs, pillows, curtains, art and furniture. Having a colour scheme gives you the opportunity to make a room that looks amazing and well-planned. For a bedroom you can go for more subtle colours like blue and grey. Of course, these colours can also be used throughout your home but other rooms, such as the living room or dining room allow you more freedom to experiment with more lively colours. A colour scheme is also good because it allows you to make a variety of contrasts with the accessories.

Choose the right light

No matter what room you’re in, lighting is what really makes the difference. Windows of course make a lot of impact, but also choosing the right lamps for your room is important. A simple and elegant room can have a bold table light, or a vibrant room can be simplified by putting in minimalistic lamps to create a contrast in the room. Even an outdoor area can be defined by the lights chosen.

Go for the classics

You can make your new room truly shine by choosing classics rather than trendy pieces. Spending money on quality furniture will be beneficial in the long run and high-end furniture also tends to have more of a classic look. Choosing a luxury interior design can influence how long you are happy with the look of your new room. If you go for a timeless and classic look you can have a room untouched for years without having it go out of style. Choose a modern and luxurious finish for your room to give it that iconic look.

Choose the right accessories

Accessories are the final touch and shouldn’t be underestimated. Channel your personality though contemporary rugs, modern coffee tables, a fancy patterned pillow on your blue Rolf Benz sofa, big mirrors and a glowing table light. There is literally no limit to what you can do with the accessories of your room. Let yourself loose and spruce up your room according to your own imagination.

We really hope this have given you the inspiration to redesign your new room. If you want any exclusive furniture, lighting or simply a furniture package to get you started, feel free to contact us!

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.
