One thing that anyone who’s been through a home renovation can tell you is this: think your choices through very thoroughly. To make this easier, here are 5 questions you can ask yourself to get the best home interiors:
1. What’s the ideal intensity of light

Many homeowners do not know this, but different rooms require different intensity of lighting in order to feel comfortable. Sometimes, this depends on the work that is carried out there, but mostly it just depends on the size of the space. Bedrooms, for example, need relatively less amount of light. Living rooms, studies, and kitchens – larger and more function based – need more in comparison.
2. Storage and 3d compartmentalization

Two of the most important questions you need to ask yourself before planning an interior design is this: how much storage area do I want in each room and how can I compartmentalize these spaces? The former always results in some pretty innovative shelving ideas, while the latter determines the actual layout of your spaces and how you can use them in the future.
3. What style do I want

This is one of those basic questions without which you cannot even start your interior design. Your mood board might be a huge jumble of different ideas, but at the end of the day, you have to pick just one for a totally cohesive interior design. You cannot have a minimal space with lots of traditional accents, or a modern room with classical design elements. Pick and choose one carefully.
4. When do I pick the furniture

One of the most common mistakes that every homeowner makes at some point is picking out the furniture before the interior design is complete. Now, if you’re an experienced designing professional with a keen eye, you can probably make the right furnishing choices, but if you’re not, chances are that you’ll end up with mismatched and clashing pieces.
5. What do I splurge on

Renovation is all about managing your budget, so it’s not usually recommended to splurge on anything that you don’t actually need. But once in a while, there’s a small opportunity and many homeowners tend to spend those funds on unnecessary things. Make sure that your splurge counts; a jet shower is going to be much more useful than those creamy countertops.
