Space - At it's most basic level, Interior decorating involves changing something within a space. However, beyond making a space attractive, effective decorating ensures that a space is functional and that it can be used for it's intended purposes.
Balance - When decorating, it is vitally important to take into consideration visually balancing a room to create a feeling of equilibrium and harmony. Whatever you decide to use in your decorating equation, your goal is to balance the look and create a sense of harmony with what is placed in the room. Color - Color is one of the most complex design elements and there's a lot that you need to know to understand how colors work when you are decorating. Colors can not only make a room more attractive, they can actually affect the way people feel. Texture - Texture is another important element to take into consideration when decorating a space because texture adds both visual and tactile interest. Texture can stimulate emotions, create a feeling of warmth and harmony and can provide sensual pleasure. Pattern - One design element you can have fun experimenting with is using different patterns and combining them with varying colors. The fabric pattern that are selected for a room will have an impact on the feel of the room.
Scale - Scale in decorating refers to the relative sizes of different items in a room in relation to each other, in relation to the room and in relation to the individuals who will be using the items. The size of the room and the size of the individuals using the room will factor into whether large scale furnishings or small scale furnishings are used. Line - Lines create movement within a room.
