Tip 1: Lower The Light Above the Table
Imagine the difference between walking into a high-end restaurant and walking into a cafeteria. If you want your restaurant to look high-end, you must lower the height of the chandelier. Let the light source focus on the dishes on the table, and the tone is warm light. The distance between the chandelier and the desktop is about 80cm, which is more appropriate.
If you feel that the brightness of a single chandelier is not enough, you can arrange two or three light positions in parallel, or assist some ambient lighting.
Tip 2: Let The Wood Color Contract
I obviously used a lot of good wood, but why doesn't the house look high-end? In fact, there is a high probability that you have ignored the [wood color contrast].
There is more than one wood color. Common home decoration woods, such as oak is light beige, black walnut is dark brown, disc bean is reddish, and there are many choices when matched with different wood paints.
(oak-- light beige black walnut--- dark brown disc bean---reddish)
Therefore, in terms of wood matching, we must first avoid two restricted areas.
- First, avoid highly saturated wood colors, such as common reddish and orange.
- Second, avoid slightly different but close wood colors in the same area. This can give the impression of a wrong color choice.
So the correct way is to increase the contrast of wood color. For example, light oak cabinets are paired with dark walnut dining chairs, or smoked wood floors are paired with ash rattan chairs. At the same time, ensure that there are less than three wood colors in the same area, and the sense of luxury is absolutely grasped.
Tips 3: Use More Pallets
That's right, it's such a small object, such a very simple tip that has magical effects. Trays can reduce visual noise in terms of storage; they can increase levels in terms of decoration. Whether it is the kitchen, bathroom, living room, or bedroom, using it almost anywhere in the home will have the effect of enhancing the sense of luxury. In terms of the material of the tray, rattan, marble, wood, etc. are all good choices.
Tip 4: Add Rough Texture Materials
The book "Space with Character" writes that "in space design, color, material, texture and light are the four most important elements. However, when decorating, people often mainly consider the matching of colors, but ignore the material and The importance of texture.
If a large area of the home is made of smooth materials, it will give people a cold feeling, so we can increase the rough texture. For example, marble countertops are matched with brass faucets; elements such as wool and rattan are dotted on plain walls; smooth floor tiles can be matched with carpets or rough wooden furniture.
The mix of textures can even be said to be more important than colors, which can greatly increase the professionalism of space design.
Tip 5: Bigger Green Plants
Compared with thinking about how to combine a few scattered small potted plants, it is easier to increase the design sense of interior design with large and unusual green plants. The book "Illustrated Interior Design" states that "By adding or enhancing large dimensions or unusual proportions, irregular shapes can grab our attention by creating focal points."
Large green plants with exaggerated leaf shapes are like art sculptures at home. It can not only enhance the artistic sense of home decoration, but also form a contrast with relatively low furniture to achieve visual balance. Like banyan leaf, monstera, Brazilian wood, rubber tree, millennium wood, etc. are all high-end choices.
Tip 6：The Light Biside The Mirror
Is there such a slender mirror in your home? Or is it a combined mirror with multiple collages? This type of mirror can meet the most basic needs for grooming, but it cannot enhance the sense of luxury at home. When we walk into high-end restaurants, hotels or shopping malls, we will find that mirrors are a very commonly used interior design element.
If you place a large mirror at home on the opposite side of the light source, or at the end of a long and narrow corridor, it can improve the overall brightness and sense of extension of the space.
If the mirror is placed next to the sofa, it is recommended that its length be at least half of the overall length of the sofa but not exceed the length of the sofa, while keeping a distance of at least 30 cm from the ceiling.
If it is hung on the wall, a large area mirror will also be a good work of art. Its height is preferably at eye level.
Tip 7: Use More Neutral Colors
When you think of bright colors, what do you think of? Red, Yellow, Green. In fact, as long as enough gray tone is added to any color, it can become the popular and visually comfortable Morandi color system.
If you use high-saturation colors in a large area at home, it will bring a lot of irritation to the eyes and easily cause visual fatigue. A style like MCM (Mid-Century Modern) will use a lot of bright colors to match, but if you are not a particularly professional designer, it is recommended that you use more neutral colors with gray tones, which makes it easier to create a high-end home.

Tip 8: Domesticate Your Interests
In fact, more and more decoration companies are using templated decoration methods. Some so-called log styles and cream styles look similar in every household. So if we can internalize our hobbies into a part of the home, it will bring connotation and texture to the home decoration.
Wine bottles, skateboards, camping boxes, Frisbees, vinyl records, and more can all be featured in your home. Organically combine interest culture with home aesthetics.
