Creating That Finished Look

We all have some idea or inspiration on how we want a room to look but seeing it through to the final stages can prove more difficult. What makes a room feel finished?

That’s why HID specialises in full interior design, we know it’s those all important details that complete the room.

Creating a finished look involves careful planning, attention to detail, and some design principles in achieving that polished and completed appearance in your room.

If you’ve ever started a decorating project full of excitement, it’s taken ages to get the colour right then of course co-ordinating the sofa, curtains and soft furnishings, but somewhere down the line you start to feel de-motivated, it didn’t quite turn out how you expected, something feels off balance and you just want to get the room finished and start living your life again without disruption or weekends spent scouring the internet or trailing around interior stores, does this sound familiar?

This is usually the point when HID are called in so we know how frustrating this is for you and we know exactly how to turn this around. Imagine how it would feel to achieve that finished look from the get go, the time and energy spent trying to do this yourself only to feel deflated. A professional has years of experience and training which does save you time and money in the long run, you will feel more confident in your buying choices as everything is taken into consideration to the overall look. Let’s look at several elements involved in achieving this…

  • Harmonious Colour Scheme: A well-chosen and cohesive colour scheme ties the room together. Consistency in colours on walls, furnishings and accessories create a sense of unity.

  • Balanced Layout: Furniture and decor should be arranged in a balanced and harmonious way. This means ensuring there is an even distribution of visual weight without one single element dominating the room.

  • Scale & Proportion: Choosing furniture and decor appropriately scaled for the room. Oversized or undersized items can disrupt the balance and can make you feel uneasy or something will just feel ‘off’.

  • Adequate Lighting: Having a good mix and well-placed lighting specifically for the use of the space is crucial in creating a balanced and functional lighting scheme.

  • Attention To Detail: Taking note of any architectural details in trim or moulding, small details matter when creating a cohesive look.

  • Art & Accessories: This is the secret ingredient that pulls everything together, thoughtfully curated artwork and accessories should complement the room’s style and colour palette.

    A room feels finished when it achieves a sense of cohesion, balance, and completeness.

How we create this for you

We take everything into consideration from the beginning, gathering information from our design questionnaire and in-depth consultation. We start with a clear vision of how you want the room to look and consider the colour scheme, style and the overall look you want to create, then set to work building and layering all of these design elements and more, into that completed look, exceeding your expectations. Every item of furniture and accessory is taken into consideration, fabrics are sourced around the function and practicalities of the room as well as complementing these pieces.

There is nothing more satisfying than seeing the joy it brings to our clients faces when we hand over on installation day! Ready to take the leap?
