Scale Your Patterns
One of the most common slip-ups when designing an interior is choosing patterns and prints that are too small for the space. When you use small-scale patterns on large surfaces, they get lost and fail to make an impact.
Instead, choose patterns that are large enough to create a visual impact, yet not so large that they become overwhelming. Using wallpaper with a large-scale pattern will add depth to your living space, making it look more inviting and expensive.
Add Texture
Texture adds interest and depth to any room. A high-end interior uses various textures and materials to add layers of richness and soothing contrasts.
Consider incorporating different textures such as polished and matte stones, brick, roman clay, or even sustainable cork to achieve a layered and high-end look. When using fabrics, mix and match different materials to add dimension to bedspreads, pillows, and window treatments.
Create Layers
Layering is key to designing an interior that looks high-end. Using different textures, patterns, and styles, with a thoughtful approach to placement and layering, elevates the look of your home.
Adding layered elements such as throw blankets, accent pillows and window coverings can effortlessly transform your space. By adding these textile elements at the end of a major renovation project, it will soften the interior space and make it feel both luxurious and cozy.
Stay Neutral
To create a high-end look, sticking to a neutral color palette is often the preferred choice. Using neutral colors on walls and large pieces of furniture serves as a backdrop for bold accents such as colorful pillows, rugs, and artwork.
Neutral tones like beige, white, gray tones, and browns create an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere. Neutral backgrounds also prolong the lifespan of room décor, saving you time and resources.
Invest in Quality
Quality materials last longer and give your interiors a polished look. Investing in quality pieces will not only save you money in the long run but also makes a powerful statement about your style.
Consider upgrading high-traffic areas like entryways, living rooms, or kitchens but remember only to upgrade items used frequently, so your investment would be beneficial. Whether it's a statement art piece, a stunning quartz countertop, a unique chandelier, or luxurious bedding, choose items that will last and impress for years to come.
