New Home Interior Designs: Where to start? 

With so many ideas, articles, influencers and magazines flooding your news feed – it can be challenging to figure out what interior styles to go for. From minimalism to art deco to art nouveau and everything in between, it can be hard to pick what you would want your new surroundings to feel and look like. 

The best way to start your interior design journey is to create a vision or pinterest board for your new home interior of all the luxurious and unique furnishings, styles and decor you have always imagined living within. Once you have your vision board created, build on the smaller finishing touches you love like colors, paints, rugs etc. The vision board will help translate the tone of your style and how you would like your home to feel. It’s also super helpful to show when speaking with interior design firms too.

New Interior Designs: How do I choose Interior Designers for my home? 

In a world where there are so many interior designers to choose from – the variety can be overwhelming and it can seem like a maze of interior design firms to select from. 

Below we cover three very common questions that clients ask before hiring their ideal interior designer. Let’s begin….

How do I find the right interior designer for me? 

• • Word of mouth is a very powerful tool in choosing a designer for your new home. Reviews are a great way to read public feedback but word of mouth is the most reliable source. Another great way to get recommendations for interior design firms is to ask people in the know, from real estate agents, interior furniture companies and employees at your local building stores. They should all be able to give you great recommendations. 

What is the difference between an interior designer and a decorator? 

• • The short answer is that interior designers design and create functional and beautiful living spaces keeping your unique vision in mind, as well as a multitude of other great aspects (skip to question 4 to see what we offer or check out our residential interior design services). Painters and decorators are hired to paint, wallpaper and add finishes to the outside and interior of your home. A decorator can also be used to add to your home environment, using paint, lighting and other minor finishing touches.
