do you have any good resources on that? Since I am interested in those topics I read a book on interieur design a few years ago, but it really wasnt that good, and I am still looking for more practical guides.
i dont have specific resources no - amazon is your friend though. check out some good starred books and go for it, or search "interior design books reddit" on google. The easiest way is to just check out some print titles like HOUSES, or any interior architecture blogs or what not....get an idea of what is put in a room...and quite literally imitate.
think about colour co-ordination - you may want to consult the free adobe kuler online app...or grab a colour theory book.
Next - think about materials: plastics, metals, stone, wood, ceramic, glass, terracotta, plant material. These should all/will all be in your living space. The mark of some SERIOUSLY impressive interior design - at least in minimal design styles is the "bringing of the outdoors indoors".
Next is the "style" - generally you're going for a design style, minimal, japanese, maximalist, art deco, etc etc (look these up) but then layering modern things within the chosen style, and antiques. This is the part which takes practise/skill.
Next - your character: what do you like to read, listen to, admire - litter that within your space. If you like to eat/drink - fill your kitchen with coffee making tools...like a fine italian coffee machine, a baeletti, a gooseneck kettle. A carrafe for wine. Matching ceramic tea, sugar and coffee containers. A fine knife set.
A "hacky" and "not that good" - but still...better than 90% of people is just..going to ikea....picking out a rug, some plants, a few pieces of furniture, cushions, throws, some striking hifi, lighting (and outside of ikea - getting paintings, artwork, sculpture and antiques), large, medium and small plants, aquariums (tanks by fluval are particularly awesome)
If you can, hire a professional. There are online services for it, and you can pay by the room. It’s affordable. You tell them your goals/constraints, they reimagine the space, and you just buy the referenced products.
Interior designers are miracle workers. Like many things, the difference between “the DIYer tried hard” and “this was done professionally” is night/day. It’s an option, anyway!
