Design secrets ~ 5 unspoken rules in designing

Mistakes to avoid, hacks you should know

Hello design enthusiasts,

As you all know interior design is a playground for creativity, where the only rule is that there are no rules. Nothing more refreshing than breaking away from the standards, creating a space that resonates with your personality.

But in this world of creativity, there are a few unspoken “ rules” that can take your interior design to the next level. Think of them as thoughtful guidelines.

Rule number 1 - Relaxed Curtains
Ensure your curtains have the right length, avoid curtains that are too short as they can give an awkward impression. Disrupting the flow. I would alway suggest to add around +/- 10 cm to the measured length, depending on the fabric.
Why? Picture a soft linen curtain sweeping the floor—this extra length adds a casual, relaxed vibe that feels both elegant and inviting. It’s a simple detail, but it makes a world of difference in elevating the overall atmosphere of your room. Also many fabrics do shrink 1 to 3 cm when hanging.
