Common Room Arrangement Mistakes You Need To Avoid

Stuffing too much doesn’t seem to work well always. Sometimes our idea of accessorizing room turns out to be a complete mess. Worried? Fret not guys! Take a chill pill and ease off your burden. Because this article is going to expose some of the common room arrangement mistakes that we often tend to make. Learning about these mistakes will keep you cautious while carrying out your next room arrangement.

So, here we go…

Mistake 1: Filling up space.

Crowding a room with too many décor items or furniture pieces makes it appear cluttered and confused. None of the pieces is able to get due attention it needs. Therefore, ensure that instead of fitting too many pieces you showcase a single statement piece. This could be anything a statement chair, painting, or lamp. For the bedroom it could be a double bed. Now, you can try arranging other things around this. 

Mistake 2: Blocking walkways

A clear walkway adds instant charm to your room. It boasts a welcoming look. While on the other hand weaving around the study table, sofa, or chair can make it frustrating to move around the room. Therefore, before fixing furniture in any room make sure you leave a gap of around 2-3 feet so that people can walk around freely without colliding with the objects.

Mistake 3: Pushing everything against the wall

Avoid pushing everything against the wall, especially if you have larger space. Doing so leaves a dead space in the center and steals away the appeal of the room. While placing furniture a few inches away from the wall and placing chairs and couches closer together accords room with a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Mistake 4: Not paying attention to balance.

It is not necessary to create perfect symmetry in the room. However, you need to achieve a balance between different elements. The tonality of draperies and wall paint should be in harmony. Moreover, a couch should be accompanied by a pair of chairs placed across it.

Mistake 5: Not paying attention to the lights.

Good room ambiance is the key to a good mood. Therefore, it is essential to pay attention to the lighting in the room. Apart from overhead lights and lamps, pay attention to secondary light sources. A study lamp should be placed on your study table, a floor lamp should be placed in a corner area, and a table lamp should be placed next to your armchair or a couch.  

Mistake 6: Improper rug or carpet placement. 

When you decide to place a rug or carpet, make sure that the legs of all furniture items are either completely on or off it. This will add consistency to the room layout and will make it appear ordered. Plus, it will prevent chairs and tables from staggering.

Final Words

Arranging your room while avoiding the aforementioned mistakes will help create an appealing room environment. So, next time when you plan to set up your home keep these things in mind and then start on with work.
