- You don't need a high-end designer or a lot of money to get a luxe look; being your own interior designer is entirely possible.
- When dealing with challenging spaces, it's crucial to systematically try every possible layout before making any changes to the room's structure.
- Incorporating three points of light at a human level can make a room feel warmer and cozier, even if it's flooded with natural or overhead light.
