When you set out to design a room or space, the first thing to consider is how that room or space is going to be used. What’s the main purpose of the room? Cooking? Dining? Working? Playing? Sleeping? Multi-purpose? This needs to be thought through and forms the basis for how the room will be furnished, how the furniture will be placed, where the electrical and lighting will be needed, and what type of colors and finishes will be selected.
Often people do not think of how they live and function in a space. A well-designed, well-thought out room maximizes its livability and its use.
It’s Design 101.
