The concept holds the
magic key to your interior design and decorating. The Idea, or the
Concept, is the "Big Deal.” Before we can do anything, we must
clearly understand what we want or desire to do in your home or
environment. No one can be so naïve as to suppose that vague ideas
and hazy, undefined concepts will get you anywhere. The process is
not very difficult to understand. However, it can never be
successfully employed if you do not know precisely what you're
trying to do. Therefore, the concept is of tremendous importance!
It keeps you on target … and eliminates the possibility of getting
off track in a major way. Let me help you create a memorable,
magnificent, masterful environment in your home today with this
vital first step! Because, The Concept Holds the Magic Key to Your
Interior Design! Now, it’s so important to have an overall concept
or idea of where you want to go with a room. Sometimes people
will say, “Well, I want to take this rug, this Oriental rug, and I
want to base the room off of this.” So they start selecting colors,
materials, patterns to basically go with the rug or match the rug
or any number of different things. Sometimes, they will get
into a “matchy-matchy” situation with that … which can end up being
boring over time. It’s important to orchestrate the whole
endeavor. It’s important to have nuances in there … subtle
changes … transitions … just like a piece of music. Exactly like a
piece of music. There so many people out there that think, “Oh, I
can handle this design, it’s really not that hard.” And yet, you
ask them to write a piece of music, and it’s like, “Where do I
start, what do I do, how do I do this, how do I make this
memorable.” So that’s a little bit about the idea of having a
concept … why it's so vitally important you have one when you
embark on any interior design endeavor. It’s knowing where you're
going, before you get there, and before you even take the first
step, so that when you do get there, you know you're there. You
don’t want to start out without a concept and end up finishing it
and wonder what happened, why does it look this way, why does it
feel this way etc. You don’t want to be like Dorothy in the Wizard
Of Oz, saying to Toto, “I don't think we're in Kansas anymore,” or
desiring to go to New York City and you end up in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. You don't want to miss the mark. You want to set up
your goal, your target, your bulls-eye … you want to be able to hit
it exactly … precisely. Because, that's how you use your time your
energy in your money in the right way to get what you need and want
to have. So it actually is imperative that you
document this in very detailed way. So ... you will have to think
about it ... the concept ... deeper than you probably ever had to
before. So, that's what helps make the journey a little bit better.
Therefore, don't forget ... The Concept Holds the Magic Key to Your
Interior Design!
