1. Your Home Affects Your Mood

The way that you design the rooms in your home has a massive effect on how you show up each day.

If the rooms in your home are cluttered and unorganised, you likely feel the same way. 

Designing a home that brings together optimal storage solutions so you can feel like your space is spacious is the first step in making sure that you feel productive and calm within your home.

Imagine coming home after work and being immersed into a relaxed environment that promotes feelings of calmness? This can all be done with interior design!

Personally, I love making my home like a calm sanctuary where I can feel safe and relaxed at the end of the day.

2. You Increase Your Homes Market Value

Designing your home is an investment!

When you design your home to look appealing, you can significantly increase its market value.

Quality design choices and upgrades, especially in kitchens and bathrooms, can make your home more appealing to potential buyers. Even smaller changes such as new light fixtures, fresh door knobs, or a lick of paint can do so much.

Stylish well maintained interiors will set your property apart from others if you then choose to move house. This will then lead to a fast sale and ultimately a higher price tag!

3. You Get to Have Fun With Your Home

Decorating your home doesn’t have to be a tough experience in fact, it can actually be quite exciting!

Defining your own style and putting together mood boards is the perfect way to express your personality in your home. 

You get to choose everything from furniture to colour to decorative items. Each piece will tell a unique story about YOU!

You can incorporate moments of your personality into your home and after the process is done, you’ll be left with a space that you love.

4. Its an Emotional Investment

Your home is a backdrop for all of your best memories.

It will feature in all of your pictures and by creating an inviting space, you’ll feel more inclined to invite people over and make memories that last a lifetime.

When you invest in your home, you feel far more likely to invite people round to your home to have a great time. Christmas dinner hosted in your new kitchen? Absolutely! Get together with friends in your new living room? You bet!

Honestly, you’ll never regret making a home that makes people love coming over to your house!

5. It Can be Affordable

A lot of the time, we think that interior design has to be expensive but even just investing in small affordable pieces can make all of the difference to your home.

Charity shops are perfect to thrift unique, vintage items for your home without breaking the bank.

I would recommend planning out a budget so that you know exactly how much you’ll be spending on each room within your home.

Alongside that I suggest starting small by beginning in one room that you would really love to decorate and then upgrading other rooms in your home once you realise how much of a dramatic impact it can have on your mood.
