Which Design Features Provide The Biggest Impact Per Pound?

The new year is a time for renewal, and many people want to transform the look of their homes with the help of an interior design service.

Of course, January is often a month where many budgets are stretched, meaning that the true potential for many buildings needs to wait until the financial new year in April.

In the meantime, however, a January budget can go a lot further than you think, as long as you prioritise features, styles and touches of glamour that go the furthest per pound spent.

Mirrors

A focal mirror positioned in the right way to maximise light in the room is the secret weapon of many interior designers, as it creates a tremendous feeling of space in rooms that would otherwise feel a little cramped.

Whilst commonly associated with rather minimalist interior design styles, a statement mirror can make a room look extremely luxurious, and might be the single piece of furniture that can have the greatest impact per pound.

Textures And Textiles

A focal point of luxury interior design can be found in texture as much as it can in style and materials.

It is rather incredible how much difference a set of plush cushions and throw pillows can have in the look of a living room, and could spare the cost of buying new furniture entirely.

Similarly, textured wallpapers help to give a room a layered feeling that is at once comforting and premium.

Doorknobs And Drawer Handles

With luxury design, beauty is often found in smaller, sophisticated details, so the best way to make the budget go further is to focus solely on these details.

Replace tired doorknobs with more luxurious ones featuring black or gold finishes, and doing the same for cabinets, wardrobes and drawer pulls can transform a room entirely, as long as it is done consistently and harmonises with the existing interior style.
