Interior design is more than just designing your home. It not only involves designing your home to make it stunning, but comfortable too. Thus, an interior designer needs to pay attention to all the elements of interior design. In general, there are 7 elements of design. These are:

  • Colour – Colour is one of the most important elements of design. Whether you like neutrals or bold shades, colours determine the look of your space
  • Form – Form refers to different shapes such as geometric, curved, open and closed. This helps in creating a theme for a room
  • Light – Light can set the mood of a room, be it artificial or natural light. Moreover, lighting also affects the sense of space, and can make a room look bigger or smaller
  • Line – By lines, we mean horizontal, vertical and dynamic. Lines help us in perceiving a space. In addition, they help in setting the ambience
  • Pattern – Patterns are collections of lines that help in adding texture to your interior design
  • Texture – Texture refers to how a room looks and feels. Moreover, you can play around with textures in a neutral setting to create a theme
  • Space – This involves thinking about the positive and negative spaces in a floor plan of a home. Negative space adds to the sense of openness in a room, whereas positive refers to the area filled with decorative items
