How to Create a Well-Balanced Design
Exploring and staying updated with the latest trends is undeniably exciting. Immersing yourself in Pinterest, seeking inspiration for your upcoming home remodel, captivated by the charm of contemporary and trendy design styles. When the time arrives to carry out your Pinterest dreams, it’s like being a kid in a candy store, bubbling with excitement.
However, as these design choices begin to materialize in planning your upcoming remodel, a sense of uncertainty may gradually creep in. Questions about how your chosen design inspirations will blend with your existing homes aesthetic emerge. You may even be questioning how long these current trends will remain in style or if you’ll have to remodel in 5 to 10 years to match new trends.
Mastering the art of including trendy design inspirations in your new home design can be daunting, but not impossible. By skillfully blending contemporary trends with understated components, a timeless modern design can be achieved, standing the test of time. Here, we present our top three insights to guide you in crafting a harmonious and well-balanced design.
Establish a Neutral Foundation
The concept of neutral tones has transformed from its traditional boundaries of beige, light brown, and cream hues. Modern neutrals now include shades of elegant grays, tranquil blues, and serene greens. Earthy tones such as shades of refined black, gentle creamy whites, and inviting warm wood tones have emerged as ideal choices for a contemporary design palette. Opting for a modern neutral base not only grants you the freedom to incorporate trendy accent pieces that blend with present-day designs but also allows you to easily change styles or trends in the future.
Create Captivating Focal Points
Once the neutral foundation is established, the creative journey continues by introducing small bursts of color or patterns. Striking a balance between vibrancy and neutrality will allow you create that effortless and timeless look. Imagine an accent wall styled with a captivating wallpaper design or vibrant patterns decorating your kitchen, bathroom, or living room through lively rugs and charming wall art. Another way to elevate the design of your home is through vividly colored accent pillows and cozy blankets.
Finding Symmetry
The essence of a well-rounded design is visual symmetry. Achieving symmetry and balance entails designing around a central focal point, which could be an inviting fireplace, an elegant chandelier, a centerpiece island, a circular table, or a captivating artwork. Another way to achieve symmetry is arranging your furniture,vertically or horizontally, around a central axis point.
