warm colors such as white, gray, light brown…will give the impression of a
home, a relaxing space, a space where you can be free and yourself, where you

7- Decorative walls and
prints:
One of the most hard decisions a
house or place owner might take, due to the variety of designs and choices that
may lead, if not chosen well, into a disaster. Therefore, you can either stay
on the safe side in choosing classical colors and designs or else, in my
opinion you should hire a well talented interior designer to help you choose
the convenient design and print.
8- Suitable furniture:
Beside all the tips mentioned above,
in my opinion this one is the most essential and have the greatest impact among
all the other ones. It does not mean you should choose the most expensive
furniture, but try to choose the most convenient to your place, with the right
colors and designs.
If you are seeking for a classic
design, try to choose warm colors with simple designs, and if you are seeking
for a trendy one, you can include some colors but stay away from flashy colors
in the furniture, since it will be easily bored.
9- Make it your own:
The most important
idea while thinking about making a beautiful first impression and designing
your own place is to keep you touch in it, the place should be your comfort
zone after all, it should reflect your image and your taste, whether it was
trendy, simple, classical, unique… the guest entering you place should feel you
sense in it. This will keep a beautiful first impression.
10- Adding coziness to your corners:
You can add chairs, designs, shelves to make it more
useful and will definitely give an amazing and impressive touch that will keep
a beautiful impact in the eyes of the viewer.
Curtains can make or break a room, therefore choosing
the right fabrics and prints should be done carefully. The biggest and common
that is done while choosing and designing curtains is hanging just above the
top of the window, instead they should be hanged through the entire wall, which
will give a luxurious look.
12- Ceilings matter:
While designing the entire place, you should never
forget the ceiling, which can be customized with different ideas and ways. It
can include pendant lamps, designs and prints, lights …. This can definitely
make a statement and an engraved first impression.
13- Adding patterns in
the floor or ceiling:
Patterns nowadays have a huge part in the interior
design world, due to its uniqueness and creativity that can provide to the
place.

rugs or carpets is a must, since it give a fancy touch and can modify any room
or space to make more beautiful and decorated.

to the final design you are working towards.
15- Outstanding outdoors
Applying all the above tips, without taking care of
the outside part of your place, whether it was a balcony, a garden, a yard… is
a big mistake. To have a complete good first impression, you should include all
the parts of your home.
The outdoors could be the most amazing parts due to
the several ideas that are applied currently even in small spaces. Designing
outdoors is as much important and essential as the other rooms and might lead
to great results.
