1. Determine the function: First, clarify the function of each area, such as the living room for gathering and relaxing, the study for working, etc. This will affect the way it is arranged and the furniture used.

2. Make a floor plan: Before laying out, you can draw a floor plan and mark fixed elements such as doors, windows, and power sockets to help you better plan the space.

3. Choose furniture: Choose furniture according to function. Pay attention to maintaining proportions and dimensions to avoid the space appearing crowded or too empty.

4. Mobility design: Consider the flow of traffic when laying out to ensure smooth walking paths and avoid obstructions. Especially in areas that require activity, such as living rooms and dining rooms, sufficient space should be maintained.

5. Color matching: Choose a suitable color scheme and consider the colors of walls, floors, furniture and decorations to make the space coordinated. Color can affect psychological feelings, so choose based on the intended atmosphere.

6. Lighting design: Reasonably arrange the location and type of lamps, considering both practicality and creating atmosphere. A combination of main lights, auxiliary lights and decorative lights can be used.

7. Decorative elements: Use artwork, plants, accessories, and more to add personality and style. These small items can make the space more warm and layered.

8. Flexibility: Consider moveable furniture or multi-purpose space designs to accommodate different needs and activities.

9. Tailor-made: Where possible, consider custom-made furniture or features to maximize space utilization.

These steps are just some basic guidelines, and the specific layout needs to be adjusted according to your own needs and the characteristics of the space. If you have more questions about a certain aspect or need more detailed advice, feel free to contact us!
