Interior Design…a family affair!

Making your space family centric is more than just a few family photos on the wall.

There are some spaces in the home that just speak to family; a living room, a dining room and to some extent the kitchen. These are spaces where bonds are formed, memories are created and some of the most lived family experiences take place. It’s no surprise therefore that interior design is important to families.

 

Interior design therefore is not static and will evolve as the family changes in size, taste and style. A single person looking to buy their first home is generally intent on finding a space that reflects their personality. In today’s world, that oftentimes translates into a minimalist style with a clean colour palette. Now as that individual embraces family, that is oftentimes traded in for a more traditional space with a style that says ‘matrimonial home’. If there are children involved or plans to have them involved, then there is even greater priority on creating an environment that’s nurturing with spaces where they can grow and learn.

 

Making your space family centric is more than just a few family photos on the wall. It’s more than even your choice of paint. It’s also about functionality and being relevant to your needs.

 

So here are a few things to consider:

  • Decide on theme
  • Create spaces for the whole family
  • Decide on a budget
  • Make it happen

Bedrooms are personal, so nothing says ‘family’ like your living and dining room so be sure to put your emphasis there in bringing ‘family’ into your space. And if you have already brought ‘family’ into your home, take the time and check if these spaces are still functional and relevant. You may find out that you have outgrown it and it’s time for an upgrade.

 

So don’t be afraid to look at your current space. Perhaps you have outgrown it. Perhaps your needs have changed. And if you are unsure, consult an interior designer to give it a second look and don’t be afraid to make the changes necessary.

 

 

Oh, and if you are in a relationship, it is a cardinal sin to not consult your partner in the interior design process. After all, it is indeed a family affair.
