Interior design is not essential in the scheme of life, but
designing with the Design Studio of Spaces can be a source of immeasurable
pleasure and can satisfy your vital force of nest building that is in all of us.
Whether is it through a design consultation or taking one of our many
decorating classes or work shops, Spaces can help.
Deciding on a suitable style for your home can pose quite a
challenge.
When you purchase a new home, there is little chance that
your lifestyle or household coincides with that of the previous owners. Although
not possible in every case, it is a great idea to live in a home for some months
before finalizing any decisions on radical changes. In that time, you will
experience the house’s shortcomings and can judge just what you can and cannot
live with.
It is so tempting to dive in and start looking at fabrics
and paint chips before any of the planning has taken place but it really does
pay dividends to do things the right way the first time around... The Design Studio of Spaces
can plan your project and follow a specific sequence to:
1.
Examine and change the structure
2.
Plan the arrangement of the furniture
3.
Plan your lighting
4.
Select the scheme
The order of these stages is quite specific, each question
logically following on from the completion of the previous one. For
example, it is not possible to arrange the positioning of light fittings before
you have planned where the furniture is going to be placed.
There are many reasons why an Interior Designer might be
the answer:
1.
New room use - you may wish to convert an existing guest bedroom
into a dressing room
2.
Change of lifestyle - perhaps your new job requires you to
entertain a lot at home, so you might decide to join up a sitting room and a
study to form a spacious dining room
3.
Additions to the household - a new baby is expected, so you
determine to build an extension to accommodate a playroom
4.
Proportion and correction - would the removal of a picture rail
improve the division of space within your living room?
5.
You wish to give character - the addition of window treatment
might make your dining room more interesting and inviting
6.
Natural light is insufficient - by enlarging a window you might
make a dark corridor more inviting
The decorating problem may require surgery or could be
possibly solved by doing something as simple as re-hanging a door on the
opposite axis, or taking one of The Design Studio of Spaces classes and
workshops, simply calling or contacting us
to arrange a complimentary, 1/2 hour in-studio consultation.
