Top 10 Interior Design Hacks

2021-06-10

Looking to spruce up your home but short on time and/or money? Here are 10 quick and easy interior design hacks that can help you out!

Interior Design Hack 10: Utilize Vertical Storage 

When you’re living in a small place, it’s best to think vertically when it comes to storage. Use tall shelves, closet organizers, stacking storage boxes, hooks, and other items to help you make the most of the storage space in your home. You’ll be able to fit in much more than if you were to just use open or horizontal storage.

Interior Design Hack 9: Adding Rugs and Mats to Rooms 

Rugs and mats can really change the look of a room. In the winter, fuzzy ones can help make your place feel warm and cozy. In the summer, thin mats can help keep your home cool. The best of these decorating hacks, small rugs and mats are easy to stow away, so you can easily swap them out whenever the seasons change, or you feel like redecorating.

Interior Design Hack 8: Moving Furniture and Decor Around 

Reorganizing furniture, decorations, and other items you have is one of the best decorating hacks to spruce up your home. The best part about working with what you already have is that it does not cost any money. When you get bored with how your home looks, start by rearranging your furniture and decor before you buy new items. You might be happy just working with what you have.  You could even take this to the next level with a DIY home improvement project and build something unique!

neutral colors

Interior Design Hack 7: Use Neutral Colors 

Sticking to a neutral color palette makes coordinating things easier. If you are not great at mixing and matching colors, a neutral color palette will save you a lot of trouble and is a perfect organizing hack that will let you know when something is out of its place. It is hard for colors in the same neutral color family to look bad next to each other. Neutrals are also great for people who like sleek, minimalist designs.

Interior Design Hack 6: Buy Items That Are Easy To Clean 

Some gorgeous pieces of furniture can be an absolute pain to clean. Pass on these pieces to avoid cleaning hassles in the future. With a bit of effort, you’ll be able to find items for your home that look nice and are easy to care for.

Interior Design Hack 5: Work With Lighting 

The lighting in a room can really change its ambiance. If you’re struggling to figure out what you don’t like about the look of a room, take a moment to think about its lighting. If you want a cozier feel, stick to warm lighting. If you want a room to be an energetic, productive space, use bright, white lighting. Sources of light can also influence how a room looks. If you want the light to fill up a whole room, installing some overhead ones might be your next DIY home improvement project. For smaller, dimmer pockets of light, use lamps. This is the perfect interior design hack for those who love their ambient lighting!

interior plants 1

Interior Design Hack 4: Add In Some Green 

Plants can be a fairly inexpensive way to add some life and color to your home. They can also help make your apartment more eco-friendly by providing oxygen and/or produce. Most plants will look good in any home, and growing them may become your new hobby.

mirrors design 1

Interior Design Hack 3: Hang Up Some Mirrors 

If your home feels small and cramped, you can make it feel bigger by hanging up some mirrors. Large mirrors work especially well for this, but even small mirrors can help add depth and dimension to a room. Don’t just get any old mirrors! Decorative ones in cute frames can help make your home look better. If you’re a creative person, you may be able to DIY some nice mirror frames instead of buying decorative mirrors. 

basket design hack

Interior Design Hack 2: Use Baskets For Storage 

Baskets are a great double-duty item that serves as both decoration and storage. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can be placed almost anywhere. In addition, many baskets come in stackable sets, which is a great way to take advantage of vertical storage space. Next time you’re wondering how to store some items, pick up a few baskets.

Interior Design Hack 1: Keep In Mind Proportions 

When buying new items or rearranging old ones, the most important thing to keep in mind is proportions. Whether pieces are the right size or not can make or break the look and feel of a room. Take care to ensure that the sizes of furniture and other items are right for your home and work well with each other. Don’t forget to measure your home and the items you plan on keeping in it. It’ll make shopping and redecorating much easier!
