Stuff about interior design, stuff!

We’ve long been fans of interiors and home decor. We love updating our properties, after all, the home is where the heart is, and it’s an Englishman’s castle and all those other great euphemisms. We really do believe it can make a big psychological difference being happy with your home environment and can enrich your life. That doesn’t mean we think we all need huge Hollywood mansions, we can be happy with the smallest of spaces, but having a layout and style which appeals to our own individual senses can seriously make a difference to our quality of life, and that is what interior design stuff is all about!

Our site provides concise articles and news about where to source interior design stuff for your home, whether you want to grab some great antiques and second hand furniture online like from here or update your windows with window treatments like this shutter store here. We are giving away totally free guides on some expert DIY tips which we source and provide from the great world wide web for you, and we give you room design ideas and inspiration to make sure your home fulfills your interior style and dreams.

The Psychology of interiors and home decor

Coming home at the end of a day at the office, or whatever job you do can really swing either way. If your style is clutter and bits and bobs we’ll help you grab some bargains which can be room fillers and accessories or if you like to come home to modern clean lines and minimalism (we love that – read more about minimalism here) we’ll let you into some stylish ideas.

There are loads of tools online for helping you to get the most benefit out of the digital age, like a great room planner from IKEA or a similarly useful kitchen planner as well as really practical hands on measuring guides from companies expert in their fields like this UK shutter company who provide window measuring guides for windows. Just depends on your project, but we are here to help!

Resources are tough to grow

A resource such as our site takes an awful long time to grow, so if you are here and cannot find what you really want whether it’s DIY tips or ideas for room designs then contact us and we’ll try and dig out your special information for you and after we might even post it here on our site for all to benefit from!

So, lets get busy with our home decor and interior stuff. We all have a penchant for some home design stuff, let us help you to help yourself and create a home or room that really inspires you and your friends and family!

Plan your interior before you start!

We’ve been on about mixing media and planning your design for some time now and coordinating the various elements of your interior to create a whole unified design. The best place to start is to have a good read and research your likes and dislikes, some people like to create  a ‘mood board’ which helps them to visualise styles, colours and materials they like, for example if you are trying to coordinate house plantation shutters with hard wood flooring you will want to organise samples of the wood, try and get a good idea of the grain if they are deep and linear or you will be using parquet then the effect will be quite different. Using this kind of logic with your interior whatever it is applied to will not necessarily ensure, but will help to minimise surprises and disappointments when the finished decor is done. Don’t say we didn’t warn you! Read on throughout the site for more useful decoration and interior tips…
