(4 min read)<\/strong> See, as much as I\u2019d like to start this post with \u201cI was visiting so and so the other day blah blah blah\u201d, I can\u2019t do that with a clear conscience. First of all, we all know it would be a blatant lie because the world is quarantining and secondly, it would send a bad message to everyone out there who are trying their best not to leave their homes. On the same note, I figure this type of post will do us some good, because we are bound to get sick of our home interiors at this point, so some renovations will be in order once all of this is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, I was working on answering some Quora questions the other day and this particular one really piqued my interest: What are the important components of a great room? Of course, at first, I wanted to argue that the answer depends on the type of room. There\u2019s a huge difference between the important components of bedrooms and those of a living room. Keeping that in mind, that answer would be quite valid. But, me being me and not wanting to let things go, I started thinking\u2026 The question itself sounds like it demands a universal answer, not a divisive one. Soooo, what are some universal components?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/br>

1. Symmetry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The human eye loves proportion and symmetry in faces and physical objects. I mean, just look at Harry Styles! Am I right? Rooms are no exceptions. That basically means that all of the furniture, decor, and art pieces should be in perfect harmony in every part of the room. Having too many objects on one side of the room and empty space on the other, will disrupt its harmony and make it look less hospitable and inviting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Light<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The lighting solution is of the utmost importance for any space. If a room is beautifully designed but it has poor lighting, all of the effort invested in its design and decoration will remain virtually unnoticed. Kinda like an average Instagram model without the humongous lips. If she doesn\u2019t have any, is she really and Instagram model? It\u2019s the same with the lighting. Lighting can make or break a room. Too bright lighting can give a room artificial quality and make it look \u201cplastic\u201d and hostile. Lighting solutions should be added carefully and they are best applied when done by a professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Color<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve talked about the importance of color in home-interior several times in this blog and although the approaches have been different in each post, the advice is always pretty much the same. Unlike trends and styles, the science of color isn\u2019t ever-changing, and while you can experiment and apply different colors to different spaces, you should keep the psychology of each color in mind. For example, red entices appetite, orange is great for enhancing creativity and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every room should have a focal point and that focal point should be an art piece. Just like with every other thing, it is important to not overdo it. Too much art can make your room look tacky. it is best to choose just one piece that is interesting enough to draw attention without looking imposing. Mosaic artwork will do an impeccable job as a focal point of any type of room. Depending on the size of the room you can opt for anything from intricate details and subdued colors to vibrant tones and simplistic design. Mosaic artwork will never fail to capture the attention of visitors, so you can\u2019t go wrong with mosaic art. Well\u2026 I dunno if Kevin Bacon mosaic made of bacon would go well above your bed, but\u2026 You know what, scratch that. Whatever floats your boat! Who am I to judge \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
