Interior designers reveal the most common design mistakes

Do not add personal touches

You want your home to look beautiful and well-designed, but you also want it to look, well, your residence. Only buying the furniture and decor pieces you see in the store can make your home look a bit cold, like something is missing. Adding personal touches is the way to make a space stand out. “There’s a way to make your home stylish and incorporate details and touches that reflect your personality or the people who inhabit that space,” says the interior designer. Diana Weinstein. “I like to do this by adding books, art or accessories that reflect the owner of the house. I ask clients what interests them, maybe they like the beach or nature, so I could add beautiful coffee table books on nature or the outdoors, photography and plants.”

Basically, you want to feel happy and comfortable when you walk into a room. “The takeaway: It’s not how much you have to spend, it’s your imagination and feeling free to create an environment that nurtures and makes you happy every time you walk in,” says Jernigan. “Found objects, DIY projects and upcycling often lead to the most memorable spaces…and the most satisfying for their occupants.”
