Visual comfort in interior decor involves creating Visual comfort in interior decor involves creating an environment that is pleasing to the eye and makes you feel at ease:​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 1. Colour Palette: Colours affect the overall mood of the space. Bold or clashing colours can be visually discomforting, while a well-balanced color scheme promotes comfort.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 2. Lighting: Adequate and well-distributed lighting is crucial. Too much or too little light can strain the eyes and make a space feel uncomfortable. Utilizing layered lighting to enhance visual comfort.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 3. Layout: Arrange furniture and accessories to ensure a good sense of balance and flow within a room. Overcrowded or poorly arranged spaces hinder movement and feel unwelcoming.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 4. Texture: A variety of textures and materials add depth and tactile comfort. Soft textiles like cushions, rugs and drapery balance out harder materials like wood, metal or stone.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 5. Proportion: Choose furniture and decor pieces that are appropriately scaled for your space. Oversized or undersized items can make a room feel awkward and uncomfortable.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 6. Symmetry: Symmetrical layouts tend to create a sense of order, while asymmetrical arrangements can add interest and personality. Balance is key!​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 7. Clutter: A clutter-free environment promotes visual calm. Chaotic and cluttered environments can overwhelm the senses and create discomfort.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ 8. Personalization: Personal touches and elements reflect you and your story. Its comforting to feel a sense of belonging within a space.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ What we offer:​​​​​​​​ Custom blinds & drapery​​​​​​​​ Furnishings & decor​​​​​​​​ Bed linens & bedding​​​​​​​​ Design services ​​​​​​​​ In-home consultations​​​​​​​​ Commercial​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #loveyourhome #winnipegdesigner #shopwinnipeg #interiordecorwinnipeg #homedecorwinnipeg #interiordesignwinnipeg
