A British designer shared how to create the impression of a more luxurious interior using simple life hacks. Kristen McGowan says you don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive furniture and accessories—just change the little details.

Here are 10 tips from Kristen on how to create a rich and cozy atmosphere in your home.

1. Choose the right wall color



Neutral pastel shades will give rooms a more elegant look. Experiment not only with color but also with wall texture.

2. Beautiful Accessories





You don't have to spend a fortune to decorate your home with stylish accessories. Unusual decorative elements can be found at flea markets and thrift stores. The key is to combine items of different heights, shapes, and textures.

3. Suitable Furniture



Choosing the right furniture is one of the most important aspects of creating an interior. If you have small rooms with low ceilings, you should choose light and compact furniture. The designer advises against placing sofas close to the walls. Place the furniture in the center of the room, creating a focal point: this will add a touch of luxury to the interior.

4. Cozy Pillows



Choose covers for your sofa cushions that are slightly smaller. This will make the cushions appear fuller rather than flat. A cover that's 5 cm smaller than the cushion is sufficient.

5. Pleasant Lighting



Lighting creates a special atmosphere in the home. The designer recommends opting for lamps instead of conventional ceiling lighting. Spotlights will add coziness and chic to the interior.

6. A Harmonious Kitchen



Make sure your tableware is consistent in style. Plates and cups of different colors and shapes look cheap and untidy.

7. An Elegant Bathroom



White towels will add a touch of chic to the bathroom. As with dishes, choose towels in a cohesive tone for an elegant look.

8. A Pleasant Scent



Scent plays a big role in creating a homey atmosphere. Scented candles add a pleasant touch and decorate the room as accessories.

9. Get rid of unnecessary clutter!



The easiest way to enrich a space is to get rid of unnecessary items.

10. Tidy Up the Countertop



Too many items on the countertop create a cluttered appearance. If you don't have enough storage space in cabinets, organize them in matching containers.

Even small apartments and houses can offer plenty of functional spaces, which can be a great way to save space and declutter your interior. Here are 35 design solutions for keeping your home organized.
