  • Interior design

    process of shaping the experience of interior space, through the manipulation of spatial volume as well as surface treatment.
  • Unity and Harmony

    when doing interior design, it is necessary to think of the house as a totality; a series of spaces link together by halls and stairways it is therefore appropriate that a common style and theme runs throughout.
  • Harmony
    can be determined when color combine to look like they all belong together. Create a sense of restfulness.
  • in design, balance creates a feeling of equilibrium. It is all about equalizing or approximating the visual weight of objects.
  • Three ways of Balance:
    Symmetrical
    Asymmetrical
    Radical
  • Symmetry (formal)

    where elements are given equal weight from an imaginary line in the middle of a piece
  • Reflectory or Bilateral
    it is the "mirror" effect, or when one object is reflected across a plane to create another instance of itself.
    can take on any direction: vertical, diagonal, and anything in between.
  • Rotational Symmetry

    is when an object is rotated in a certain direction around a point.In nature is found in everything from the petals of the flower to the topside view of a jellyfish.
  • Translational Symmetry

    is when an object is relocated to another position while maintaining its general or exact orientation
  • Types of Symmetry
    Reflectory or bilateral
    rotational
    Translational
  • Asymmetrical or informal
    The visual weights of lines, colors, forms, and textures are balanced without exact duplication.
  • Boredom
    biggest enemy of Interior designs
  • Focal Point
    must be dominant to draw attention and interesting enough to encourage the viewer to look further.
  • Repetition
    is the use of the same element more than once throughout a space.
  • Rhythm
    is defined as continuity, recurrence or organized movement.
  • Progression
    is taking an element and increasing or decreasing one or more of its qualities
  • Transition
    is a little harder to define. Unlike repetition or progression, this tends to be a smoother flow, where the eye naturally glides from one area to another.
  • Contrast
    is fairly straightforwart. Putting two elements in opposition to one another, suckhas black and white pillows on a sofa, is the hallmark of this design principle
  • Another important element of interior design where it is necessary to take infinite pains is details
  • Scale and proportion

    the two design principles go hand in hard, since both relate to size and shape
  • Proportion
    is the ratio
  • Scale
    is the size of an object
  • Color
    have a definite impact on the atmosphere that you want to create when doing interior design.
  • Seven Principles of Interior Design
    • Unity and Harmonoy
    • Balance
    • Focal Point
    • Rhythm
    • Details
    • Scale and Proportion
    • Color
