Where would you place it? What would you combine it with? You think it is the piece of furniture that can completely change your bedroom, study or living room and, without a doubt, you put it on your wish list. Easy, isn&#8217;t it?\n\nThe truth is, as much as we think we&#8217;re pretty good at buying decor for our homes, it never hurts to learn a little from the best interior designers. These are experts in home decorating and have the ability to work wonders with any space. From making a small space appear much larger to highlighting the architectural features of a home.\n\nSo if you want to get the most out of your next purchase, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. At <strong>Fiaka <\/strong>we are <strong>specialists in interior design<\/strong>, so we have compiled our best-kept shopping secrets. <strong>Pay attention and keep them in your head<\/strong>.\n<h2>Decorate like an interior designer with these 5 tips<\/h2>\n<h3>Create a buying plan and focus on sticking to it.<\/h3>\nWe know that decorating an empty room is just as stimulating as it is overwhelming.\n\nLike everyone who starts from scratch, the void is a bit overwhelming for not knowing where to start.\n\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13989\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/decoracion-interiores-salon.jpg\" alt=\"interior-decoration-lounge\" width=\"400\" height=\"560\" title=\"\">\n\nForget about not knowing where to start.\n\nThe first step is, without a doubt, to <strong>create a purchase plan<\/strong>. It is easy to get carried away by emotions and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>buy furniture<\/strong>\n<\/a> that don&#8217;t quite fit your needs.\n\nFor that reason, you will need to create a purchase plan and stick to it. Having a goal and understanding what you really need is what will ultimately make you make a smart purchase.\n\n<strong>A particular room can be furnished and decorated for various purposes<\/strong>. For example, the living room can be an area in which to relax, a place to receive guests or a space to entertain. Whatever your vision, one thing is certain: you <strong>want your space to be as functional as possible<\/strong>.\n\nWhatever items you are going to buy for your home, make sure they are more than just pretty: make sure they serve a number of purposes.\n<blockquote><span class=\"TextRun Highlight SCXW246638580 BCX0\" lang=\"ES-ES\" xml_lang=\"ES-ES\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW246638580 BCX0\">Having a goal and understanding what you want and need is what will ultimately make you make a smart purchase.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW246638580 BCX0\" data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\"> <\/span><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Creates a center of attention<\/h3>\nWhen trying to create a new look, look for a piece that will serve as inspiration for the room. It can be a large piece of furniture, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/sofas-en\">\n  <strong>sofas<\/strong>\n<\/a>It can be a large piece of furniture, such as sofas, rugs, a lamp you&#8217;ve fallen in love with or an accessory you can&#8217;t stop thinking about.\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13990\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/paredes-colores.jpg\" alt=\"walls-colors\" width=\"400\" height=\"560\" title=\"\">\n\nOnce you&#8217;ve found that centerpiece, we recommend adding subtle accents. The goal of this is to keep the eye moving around the room and balance points of interest.\n\nYour star piece or piece of furniture can bring some personality to your space, but those accent elements will allow your eye to rest.\n\nAn idea with which to give a fun and colorful touch is to place a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/puffs-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>puff<\/strong> <\/a>anywhere in the room. They come in a thousand shapes and sizes: <strong>\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/round-puffs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">round<\/a>\n<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/square-puffs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>square,<\/strong>\n<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/giant-puffs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>giants<\/strong>\n<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/puffs-storage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>storage poufs<\/strong>\n<\/a> and even <strong>\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/childrens-puffs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">children&#8217;s puff<\/a>\n<\/strong> for the smallest of the house.\n<h3>Mix and match design styles<\/h3>\nThey say that opposites attract. You can use this popular saying to create an attractive space by mixing pieces of different styles.\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13991\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/diseno-interiores-moderno-vintage.jpg\" alt=\"living-room-mix-modern-and-vintage\" width=\"400\" height=\"560\" title=\"\">\n\nA tip would be to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/vintage-furniture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>vintage furniture<\/strong>\n<\/a> and combine them with modern furniture with clean lines. There is no need to be afraid of mixing different styles or tones. It is a good opportunity to show your personality in the decoration of your home.\n\nYou can even use this same tip by applying it to the color palette of your walls.\n\nAdding touches of color to a room full of neutral colors gets strong attention. You don&#8217;t need a lot of color to make an impact. You can simply choose to paint a single wall for high contrast.\n\nYou can also choose to mix textures to offer greater contrast.\n\nIt&#8217;s all a matter of simply combining color with texture to create something very personal.\n<blockquote>Adding touches of color to a room full of neutral colors gets strong attention.

And a lot of it.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13992\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/decoracion-de-interiores-salon.jpg\" alt=\"interior-decoration-salon\" width=\"400\" height=\"560\" title=\"\">\n\nBefore jumping into buying a new piece of furniture, it is important that you measure the dimensions of your room.\n<blockquote>It is essential to measure every corner of the room before jumping into buying anything lightly. Think first and then act.<\/blockquote>\nIf you want to buy larger pieces, such as a sofa, a coffee table or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/coffee-tables\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>coffee table<\/strong>\n<\/a> or a bookshelf, we recommend that you measure correctly and make a floor plan of your space.\n\nThis will ensure that all your parts fit together and function correctly.\n\nAs a general rule, you should invest in pieces that can fit in your room, but not so tight that you have to push them against the wall.\n<h3>Design within budget<\/h3>\nIt is essential to know how much you want to spend before you start shopping.\n\nIdeally, make a list of everything you want to buy. Once you&#8217;ve finished that list, you can take a look at all the stores and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/furniture-factory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n  <strong>furniture factories<\/strong>\n<\/a> to get an idea of the prices of each piece and make sure your budget is realistic.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13993\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/habitacion-decoracion-interiores.jpg\" alt=\"room-decor-interior-decoration\" width=\"400\" height=\"560\" title=\"\">\n\nWith a plan in hand, you can always make smart decisions about what to spend.\n\nIt is better to have a real knowledge of your budget so that it does not affect your pocket.\n\nThis way, you will know when to spend and when to waste.\n\n&nbsp;\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Admit it, you love to wander around decorating stores and think about where in your home you would place that piece of furniture you just fell in love with.
