Here are a few things to consider before purchasing that "gorgeous lamp" you happen see in the store or online.
Have you ever walked into a store, or scrolling through Amazon, and spotted a gorgeous piece of furniture or décor, and instantly felt the urge to bring it home? We’ve all been there! But just because you love something in a store doesn’t mean it will work in your space. Without a plan, these impulse buys can lead to a hodgepodge, disjointed look—and ultimately, a waste of money and frustration when your room doesn’t come together as you envisioned.
Give Yourself Permission to Like It—But Not Buy It
It’s okay to admire a piece without feeling like you need to own it! Loving a chair, lamp, or piece of artwork doesn’t mean it fits seamlessly into your home. A well-designed space requires a holistic approach, where every element is chosen with intention to create a polished, cohesive look.
Trust Your Interior Designer
If you’re working with an Interior Designer, remember—she’s trained to curate and coordinate. Every single selection she makes has a purpose, from the color of a rug to the shape of a coffee table. You might not immediately love one piece she’s chosen, but before dismissing it, consider how it contributes to the overall design. Design is about balance, proportion, and harmony—sometimes, the magic is in the mix!
Ask the Why
If you ever wonder why your Designer selected something, just ask! There’s a reason behind every choice, from the placement of furniture to the finishes and textures used in the space. Your designer’s goal is to create a space that reflects your style while maintaining a beautifully cohesive and functional design.
