Repair planning is one of the most time-consuming and crucial steps in creating a new interior. Project should combine functionality, ergonomics and, of course, to be comfortable. Without planning experience, mistakes are often made, We’ll talk about the ten most common today. Take on yourself all the difficulties of repair can the designer, select which standing based on a portfolio. Choose a person with similar tastes.
We talked with the general director of the company REMSK LLC, Ekaterina Bogdantseva, and found out how to create a design project and why the help of a designer will make your life easier. Her company has extensive experience in the development of turnkey design projects. In our we will try to understand what should not be allowed in our interview project and how to make it really cozy.
– Catherine, please tell me what the essence is designer work, is it really impossible to create one yourself an interior that suits your taste?
Ekaterina: Sure, you can do it yourself create an interior that will delight. But will he be enough functional and comfortable? A designer can not only help come up idea and concept of the premises, he creates the right drawings, 3D visualizations that help you see how it will be look like an apartment in the future, selects materials and furniture based from the budget of the customer. The designer will create a project that will make your the house is ergonomic, will help you choose the right lighting options with necessary power, color scheme and divide the apartment into different functional areas, while maintaining sufficient free area.
– What should a designer first of all consider when project preparation?
Ekaterina: There is such a thing as technical task. This is a very important part of the design project. Clearly the set task to the designer is the key to success. No detailed discussion of all the details of a quality project cannot be done. Very important understand that each person has his own understanding and vision. Designer will offer you a project, it can be functional, comfortable, but not the fact that you will like him.
The following parameters should be taken into account in the terms of reference: – project budget – examples of elements that you like and which categorically should not be present in the interior – requirements for stylistics, colors – information on specific technical decisions (ventilation, alarm) and zoning of premises – the number of family members, as well as their daily routine and hobbies
– Please tell me if there is a possibility that the ideal design project will be completely uncomfortable and eventually uncomfortable?
Ekaterina: Of course! Even the most experienced designer can make many mistakes. You don’t have to follow all details of the project (after all, in life, everything is not as it looks in 3D models), in addition, you yourself must understand what will be convenient for you. Which color schemes bother you, and which make you to relax. Now it has become popular, for example, to make plain interior. On the one hand, everything should be fine. a compatible range of colors, and on the other hand – this monotony over time will begin to annoy and annoy.
– Do you have your own list of interior errors that you would not be allowed at home?
Ekaterina: People come for a different purpose, some ask to create an interior from scratch, using only concrete walls, and someone wants to make a redevelopment, change the general view. I AM often noticed rather unsuccessful decisions. For myself, I highlighted such:
1. Zoning of premises using a variety of colors. This is a very stressful solution that dramatically reduces space.
2. Furniture strictly around the perimeter of the room. It is quite outdated layout option that makes the apartment look like a big a box.
3. Inconvenient placement of plumbing fixtures (when in the bathroom is closely and uncomfortably located).
4. Incorrect lighting (one chandelier in the center of the room, which does not affect all necessary areas, too bright lighting that loads as well as annoying dim lighting).
5. Unsuitable furniture. Very common situation with a small bedroom and a bed for the whole room.
6. The use of a large number of artificial materials to simulate natural. No need to chase expensive materials, if it is not possible to lay an expensive parquet board, use quality laminate. Unnatural materials that mimic wood, stone often look uncomfortable.
7. Mixing styles in one room.
8. Too many mirrors. Feng Shui experts will say that it creates voltage. I totally agree.
9. Incorrect location of outlets, which creates further problems with the operation of electrical appliances.
10. An abundance of accessories, they do not have to take all attention, they should only complement the general idea.
You can create a cozy apartment design on your own using simple forms, materials and color schemes. However, if you do not ready to take on all the difficulties of repair, look for an idea, think over the ergonomics of the space, select colors and furniture, dump this burden on a professional designer. He will help to understand modern finishing materials, lighting solutions and style, and also simplify the work of finding the necessary furniture and accessories.
