The interiors and their decoration tricks

The rule of heights

One of the decorating tricks that you can put into practice from now on is the rule of heights.

Consists in:

• Place objects of different sizes on flat surfaces.
• And on the other hand, try not to join two objects with the same height. For example: if there are three vases on a table, they should not be located in the same place if they are the same height.

For this reason, when decorating a table, it is best to have variety in the size of the objects.  As in nature, in difference, there is harmony.

However, every rule has its exception. If you want to place multiple objects of the same height on a surface, at least make sure they vary in shape. This will offer a different view.

Vertical lines

Use the vertical lines to give more height. Regardless of the size of the space you have, if you play with the vertical lines you will create a visually wide space.

This trick works especially when decorating the walls. Not only because it helps to maximize heights, but also because it creates an illusion of greater luminosity and symmetry. In the same way that it happens when the interiors have a high ceiling.

Starting from the vertical lines of a specific focal point (which can be a painting, a piece of furniture or another type of accessory), we distribute and design the rest of the elements of the room. Thus, we can find rooms that put their center on a sofa, others on a painting, and others on a floor lamp.

A trick that derives from the correct use of vertical lines is to use one’s height as a reference. It is used for hanging pictures, placing shelves and placing shelves.

In this sense, imagine that a painting is hung too high, surely you could not appreciate it in a comfortable way. Therefore, taking the height itself as a reference is convenient when placing objects in view.

The meeting point

The third of the decoration tricks is the use of a common element that gives cohesion to the whole room. It is a detail that works like the central link in a chain. In most cases it is a specific color, but it can be many other things. For example, define a specific motif: the jungle, the forest, the animal print, a material such as wood, etc.

It should be noted that, although it is not usually common, a texture is also a meeting point in interior decoration. For example, some cushions and silk curtains in a room, generate the feeling of unity in the environment. Of course, this aspect will be enhanced by the use of color and other factors.

The rule of odd numbers and the ladder

Although you can place elements in pairs, the use of odd numbers is much more dynamic to look at. In interior decoration, compositions consisting of three elements are successful. The most popular is that of: a vase, a candle or lamp and a book.

Another rule is derived from the rule of odd numbers, which consists of creating stairs. Arrange the objects so that they appear to be on different steps even though they are on the same surface.

The perfect lighting

Another of the interior decorating tricks revolves around lighting. It is well known that you have to take advantage of natural light as much as possible.

Take care of the choice of your lamps. Certainly, the type of bulb causes the light tone to vary (thus being colder or warmer).

• Perfect lighting is achieved by harnessing light. This implies not placing any element that could interfere between the entrance of light and the interior. But also,  observe the environment at different times of the day and place the lamps in places where the light cannot be projected.

These tricks help us to take advantage of the different spaces and to achieve a pleasant, beautiful and cozy atmosphere. So do not hesitate to put into practice and take advantage of these tricks. After all, a space with a pleasant aesthetic can give rise to many special moments.
