How to decorate and design the house? Make plans in advance and be prepared for renovations

Renovation is a major life event with a long cycle and many processes. Many far-sighted people will design a decoration plan in the early stage of decoration. With sufficient preparation, they will be more comfortable during decoration and achieve Be prepared instead of getting stuck mid-decoration. So how to decorate and design the house? As an interior designer, I will introduce to you the details and matters of decoration design.

1. What should be designed for decoration?

① Style matching design

The matching of decoration style is decoration The most important part of the design. This is the design link that is related to the aesthetic effect after decoration.

② Space renovation design

Developer’s delivery The house types are all unified, but the living needs of each family are different. For example, some people want a master room with a dressing room, and some people want a master bathroom. Different needs require different layout designs, so space renovation is also a decoration design requirement.

③Storage design

Life is not a poem, firewood, rice, oil and salt are indispensable. Without storage, no matter how big the house is It’s also sloppy. Therefore, storage is also an important aspect to consider when designing the decoration.

④The moving line is comfortable

The moving line is the route for our daily activities at home, including the moving line for guests, The size of the movement lines for housework and daily life, etc., is reasonably designed to ensure the comfort and privacy of our lives, and to avoid bumps and bumps when we move around the house.

⑤Detail size relationship

The relationship between detail and size is an easy mistake in decoration design, which requires us to coordinate the relationship between every detail in the space during decoration design; for example, in a small bathroom, If the bathroom door and toilet are designed without considering the size of the door opening and the installation position of the toilet, the door may hit the toilet.

2. Design process steps

①Determine the intended style

Before designing, headFirst, you need to determine what kind of decoration style you like.

②Clear your living needs

Clear your own living needs, such as What do you like to do at home: watch movies, read books, and play computer games? Another example is the family members living there: couples, elderly people, children, whether they plan to have a second child, and their family preferences. Based on family members and preferences, we will then develop a specific design plan.

③Graphic design

After determining the style and living needs, you can make a floor plan according to your needs. For example, if you plan to have a second child, you should have an extra children\’s room; if you like to work overtime at home, you can To set up a desk, etc.

④Rendering design

After determining the plane plan, you can according to the size and layout, refine the design and color matching of the facade space. Use renderings to preview the general effect of the decoration, and then proceed to the subsequent in-depth design after confirming the renderings that you like the style and atmosphere.

⑤Decoration construction drawings

After the floor plan and renderings are determined, more detailed construction drawings can be produced according to the design plan, and the decoration materials, dimensions and craftsmanship of each location can be determined, and then the construction can be carried out during decoration. Give the decoration workers a picture to avoid making mistakes in materials or proportions and creating a \”four different\” effect.

⑥Determine the list of main materials

After all decoration design plans have been determined, it is recommended to compile a list of main materials, listing the main materials used in each place in the decoration, such as ceramic tiles, wood The sizes and styles of flooring, wall paint, wall coverings, marble, etc. can be used as a reference when buying decoration materials, so you won’t make the wrong purchase.

⑦Soft Furniture List

Arrange a list based on the floor plan and elevation construction drawings Make a purchase list of the styles and sizes of furniture, electrical appliances and soft furnishings to avoid unreasonable furniture purchased later, which may lead to opening doors hitting furniture or furniture blocking socket switches. At the same time, avoid buying furniture that does not match the decoration style. resulting in unnecessary losses.

Of course, the items in the above design process are provided by professional designers. For ordinary owners, if they do not want to overturn the decoration, it is strongly recommended to design ③ floor plan, ④ renderings, ⑤Construction drawings and ⑥Main material list before starting work. Don’t design at the same time.

3. Who will design the decoration plan?

①Design yourself

If you know design software such as 3Dmax and CAD, have the patience to study decoration details and dimensions, are familiar with decoration techniques, are sensitive to color matching, and have plenty of time, you can try it yourself. Generally This method is difficult, has low feasibility, and has a high risk of renovation failure. I personally do not recommend it.

②Decoration Company

General decoration companies will provide \”free design\” services, but some informal decoration companies will start work without a complete design plan. Please do not take it lightly when decorating. Start work without the above-mentioned design materials such as floor plans, renderings, construction drawings, and main material lists. Otherwise, the workers will basically design it yourself while decorating.

③Independent designers

Many professional designers nowThose who can independently undertake house decoration design plans include the author himself who is also an independent designer. The design projects mentioned in the second point of the design process above are what I need to do daily to make design plans.

Decoration as a It is a major life event with a long cycle and many processes. Many far-sighted people will design the decoration plan in the early stage of decoration. When decorating and designing, you must first determine your living needs and design style, and first make a floor plan; then make in-depth design renderings and construction drawings for reference during decoration; and then make a list of main materials and soft furnishings for easy purchase. Materials and furniture.
