If there is one big mistake that homeowners make when carrying out the decoration tasks of their interior design project, that would be over-accessorising. Indeed, experts in interior design in Singapore agree that there are styles where “more is more,” and there are also those where “less is more.”
While as a homeowner you may choose either of these two style directions, you should first think about the different aspects of interior design and make sure that your style choice fits with these elements. Not doing so may not only result to a poorly executed renovation, but a home that you will find uncomfortable to live in.
So how do you avoid the tendency of over-accessorising? You may want to follow these pieces of advice coming from professionals in interior design in Singapore:
Mistake #1: Using the same fabric on almost all surfaces.
It is common practice among most homeowners to use almost the same fabric on all table surfaces, and sometimes even on sofa covers and drapes. Indeed, this can be cost effective, but it does not contribute to the development of the home’s overall design.
This is because there are fabrics are created to meet specific purposes. For example, lace is often used as table runners, as they give more definition and style to these specific furniture pieces. However, they do not do your windows any favours when used as curtains.
Opaque and heavy fabrics are often intended for curtains and drapes for rooms that require more privacy; in contrast, sheer and fabric materials are more suited for living room windows as they allow natural light and ventilation to move around the house.
Mistake #2: Placing more accents than you actually need.
Another mistake which homeowners are prone to make when decorating their home is placing more accents than needed. There are homes you can see side tables that are overpopulated with picture frames, trinkets, and fancy souvenirs that do not have any connection to each other. Sometimes, you can find numerous throw pillows occupying almost the entire sofa, to the point that all the seats are already occupied.
These are classic examples of “fear of empty spaces,” which is prevalent in most Asian societies, and even in some Western countries. But while it is common practice to occupy empty spaces, you may also want to think about what to do with the space first.
Instead of piling up all your memorabilia in the side tables of your bedroom or living room, why not use a tiered stand so that they can be presented in an organised manner? You may also want to choose a designated area for your trinkets, such as a wall or an unoccupied corner in your room.
Mistake #3: Overdoing the lighting fixtures.
Some homeowners want to imitate the homes of the celebrities they see on TV, and apart from following the same colour schemes and choice of furniture, they also choose to add more lights in their rooms than necessary.
Well, you should understand that the purpose of lighting fixtures is to illuminate the rooms of the house, but this doesn’t mean that you have to brighten up your home all the time. You may want to use lamps that spread the light across the room, rather than several smaller bulbs. The latter only lights up specific parts of the room, and when all these bulbs are lit simultaneously, they only spike up your electric bill.
It would be better to choose lighting fixtures according to your need and the function of the room. Doing so not only illuminates your home properly, but also creates an ambiance that gives you the comfort you are looking for in a dwelling space.

7 mistakes in bedroom design and ways to avoid them.
ERROR # 1 - Incorrect bed size.
This is a problem with any furniture in principle. When, according to the plan and ergonomic calculations, it becomes size to size, but in fact, it looks cumbersome, visually overflowing the space or, on the contrary, turns out to be too small and looks awkward.
How to avoid: Always be guided by the proportions of the size of the furniture in the room. Try to choose as big a bed as possible, but stay realistic. The main thing is that the width of the passageways in the bedroom should not be less than 70cm, and for comfortable movement, it is better to do everything 100cm.
ERROR # 2 - Poor lighting and switches.
Even in a small bedroom, you need multiple light sources. A single chandelier in the center of the ceiling is not enough, because it creates the effect of darkening the corners, and the room seems uncomfortable.
How to avoid: Hang a sconce over your headboard. Don't forget to light up the space next to the mirror and wardrobe. And be sure to place switches close to the bed so that you don't have to go to the other end of the room after an evening with a book in bed.
Do not forget about a sufficient number of outlets, this should be done even at the planning stage.
ERROR # 3 - Few storage locations
The fewer well-thought-out cabinets and shelving, the more things are visible. And the clutter spoils even the most stylish and expensive interior.
How to avoid: In addition to bedside tables, a chest of drawers (for storing small things) and a built-in wardrobe can be placed in a small bedroom: unlike a usual one, it takes up space from floor to ceiling, thereby accommodating more items. In addition, the built-in structure looks more solid and often merges with the walls, making the setting complete.
ERROR # 4 - Carpet of the wrong size.
The carpet in the bedroom is a great addition, and sometimes the final touch of the whole composition. But often people choose the wrong size or do not use it at all.
How to avoid: Choosing the right size can be guided by the unspoken rule, according to which the carpet should be 1 meter larger than the bed, both lengthwise and across. If the room is large, then it is recommended that the indentation of the carpet from the wall is 45-50 cm, if it is small, then 20-30 cm can be dispensed with.
ERROR # 5 Typical design.
If you buy a typical bed, bedside tables, and wardrobe from one manufacturer, then the interior will turn out to be formulaic and impersonal. No accessories and color schemes will help him.
How to avoid: The interior should reflect the character of its owner, and the person living in it will feel comfortable. Explore different collections of furniture and try to assemble a capsule in the same color scheme, but at the same time different in texture and shape.
ERROR # 6 Empty walls.
Even if the bedroom is a room for relaxation, it would be a mistake to make a space out of it that is intended solely for sleeping. Ascetic furnishings, unadorned walls, boring furniture, and bed linen - all this does not improve the mood at all, but, on the contrary, creates a gloomy mood.
How to avoid: The walls in the bedroom are a blank slate that you can transform into something original, beautiful, and unique to your liking. Even if you just paint one of the walls in a contrasting color, and decorate the other with several photos from the Internet, printed and inserted into frames, you can transform the atmosphere of the room as a whole.
ERROR # 7 Too dark interior.
One should not be deceived by the beauty of the thick dark tones of interior paint. It has long been known that dark blue, burgundy, blueberry, chocolate, and black for the bedroom should not be used in large quantities, since such an environment will have a tangible effect and interfere with a vigorous awakening in the morning.
How to avoid: If you like a rich range, try choosing derived shades a few tones lighter, for example, instead of black or graphite, choose gray-brown, dove-gray for the walls, and blue can be replaced with cornflower blue or azure.
Don't forget to combine dark tones with lots of whites, creams, complementing shimmery accessories, and vibrant décor.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option!
