Designers often use various tricks of the trade that are not only creative but often elevate a room in interesting and unexpected ways. Ready to decorate?
Here are five top designer hacks.
- Purchase classic, timeless pieces.
- Use removable wall stickers instead of wallpaper for a portable, versatile design element.
- Integrate black and white photography instead of traditional artwork.
- Lose the headboard. Instead of a traditional bed, opt for oversized pieces of artwork.
- Choose a “hero” moment that will serve as inspiration, such as an interesting piece of artwork or furniture.
