Some people think, designing a house is a cake walk. Get the furniture, the drapes, some wall hangings, some flowers,vases and that’s it, the house is done. But unfortunately, it isn’t that easy. It takes planning, thought and design aesthetics to do up a place. Transforming an ordinary space to make it look beautiful and classy, it takes much more than money. Yes, a good eye to select the right stuff for your house is as important as placing them right. While designing one needs to know that sometimes the smallest of things make the greatest impact. It could be the addition of a mirror, a painting, a lamp or even a plant. A cluttered, over accessorized room can look messy and disorganized, rather than chic and sophisticated. “We tend to clutter our living room with too many things. It is important to understand that less is more and therefore your living room should have things that either have sentimental value or design value. Don’t put too many things; the design is lost amidst too many. Let the important elements shine through,” says Shiva C, Designer.
