There is nothing better than coming home after a hard day's work to a tranquil, peaceful, space that you love. Of course, if the kids are home, that's not always easy, but as long as it looks good, it will help buff the stress out of the day.

Unfortunately, we can't all be great at interior design and many of us make mistakes. It's not our job, after all, and so it's easy to get it wrong.

If that sounds familiar, then you will benefit from this article. Below, you will find some top rules to follow when redecorating your home.

Rule 1: Always Use Warm Colours in the Home

Home is supposed to be like a nest. It is a human nest at the end of the day. For this reason, it needs to feel welcoming. There might be some of you out there that are very cold-hearted, but I doubt any of them are reading this article.

No, if you're anything like the average person, you want your home to feel cosy and welcoming. This means buying paint or wallpaper in a warm colour. Different colours have warm or cold hues. For example, you can find cold greens and warm greens, cold whites and warm whites.

When buying new paint, don't make the mistake of accidentally buying a cold colour. The paint manufacturer should have details about the warmth of their different colour paints, so make sure that you consult this before settling on a colour.

Rule 2: Light Will Warm Up a Room

The more light that you can get into a room, the warmer it will feel. So try to maximize those things that bring in light, such as using mirrors and buying reflective radiators.

There are also some specialist paints that you can buy that will increase the amount of light in the room, or at least make it feel as if there's more light in the room.

Rule 3: Getting Rid of Clutter Will Make a Space Feel Bigger and More Relaxing

The human brain tends to dislike clutter. This means that if you adopt a minimalist approach to your interior design, it will tend to feel more wholesome.

There are some ingenious ways of doing this. For example, you can choose to undertake underfloor heating installation and do away with your radiators completely. This will free up an entire wall but you can dedicate to other things or just leave as it is. It's actually a great place to hang on of those mirrors.

Rule 4: Use Different Materials and Textures to Make a Room Pop

If you feel like your decor is boring, and you don't understand why, then take a look around the room and see if there are enough materials and textures or if everything's uniform.

When a room is too uniform, it can come across as boring. So you should use different materials and textures to really make that room pop. For example, if you have undertaken underfloor heating installation, where the radiator was, you could hang a mirror or a rug that will bring texture and colour to the room at the same time.

These are some of the rules that interior designers use when creating a new space. By incorporating them in your interior design, you can create a space that is at once welcoming and warm, but also that looks great.
