Things To Remember When Doing Residential Interior Designing First Time

Wear and tear caused to furniture due to moisture in the air:-

Humidity and moisture can cause damage to almost any kind of furniture of almost any material, 

especially wood and fabrics. Wood expands in humid conditions which will eventually lead to cracking. Hence, active measures should be taken to protect.

Considering wind pressure in high rise buildings:-

Living in the clouds sure is a dream, but it may have more cons than perks if not planned ahead. Designing doors and windows in a way that withstands the high-velocity wind and does not cause cracks in the frames would be a start.

Capturing maximum outdoor space inside:-

The use of space is the ultimate factor in designing. Utilizing outdoor space indoors can make significant changes in the feel of the space, instantly opening it up. This is a must in making already cramped-up spaces look bigger, which is the case in most of Mumbai.

Utilizing Front & Backspace to its maximum capacity:-

The lack of space also means innovative ideas for storage units. Demolishing walls and creating storage units is a great way of utilizing that wall space. Upholstered storage benches, hidden units behind artworks, storage like jars that could act as decoration pieces, shelves, and hooks, all of these are some ideas for effective space.

Separation of space by functionality as per family’s needs:-

Using a wall of bookshelves, a dedicated area rug, a floating counter, or using seating arrangements can act as space separators instead of going for the traditional wall that tends to make spaces look smaller and closed off.

Allocated space for drying of clothes:-

What can go the most unnoticed is the need for a dedicated space for drying clothes. There are various kinds of arrangements and fixtures available to suit specific needs. The family can go through these various options and see what suits their requirement the best.

Soundproofing of windows, especially in noisy parts of the city:-

One of the major issues is the closeness of the apartment to busy streets. Living near a busy street means lots of traffic noise. This issue can be tackled by soundproofing the windows with the help of soundproof foam paneling or using thick, soundproof curtains.

Keeping straight lines and minimalistic design to avoid the collection of dust:-

Another major issue is the build-up of dust in nooks and crevices. This can be avoided by keeping the design minimalistic and lines fairly straight, which makes cleaning ten times easier.
