Decorating your new home in 3 steps

Your newly built home has finally been completed and you can start decorating! Sounds very nice but still there is a lot involved. Adding atmosphere to a new home is often considered a big task. We explain how to do this in 3 steps.

1. Create a floor plan

Every space must be decorated from the ground up. Therefore, it is first important to determine what each space is for. Draw digitally (via Floorplanner, for example) or on paper all the rooms in your home. Then consider how much and what lighting you need in each room and include your lighting plan in the floor plan. Add the correct dimensions to the rooms so you don't get tangled up with windows, radiators or directions.

2. Outlining furniture

Now that you have all the measurements in order, you can effectively outline your furniture. First, it's important to get inspiration through inspiration channels like Pinterest and Instagram. Once you've found your dream interior together, it's time to puzzle it out. Print out the furniture to scale and move it across the floor plan until you find the right layout. Is your decor fixed? Then the buying can begin.

3. Finishing touch

Now that the basics are in place and the furniture is pouring in, it's time for the finishing touches. Add personality like vacation souvenirs or photos to quickly feel at home. Think carefully about what mood you want to create when purchasing your accessories. Keep the golden rule less is more in mind. There is no need to have something everywhere in your new home to create atmosphere. An overcrowded house creates unrest, something you don't want in your new place. In addition, don't forget to have your new curtains made customer and ready. Wooden blinds are hugely popular and a real interior design trend. To complete your home and your windows, combine the blinds with net curtains.

Good luck with decorating your new home!
