We know how exciting an interior design project is and how many ideas might fly through your head during the planning stage with your team. However, it is important that you keep your mind centered on one goal and one objective. It might get very hard for your team of contractors to reach a good outcome if there was no material selection at the beginning if there was no design selection in the rendering stage and so many other aspects that can affect the process and execution of your project.
Now, you might be wondering, why are they telling me this if I accessed this blog to learn about material combinations? Well, that’s exactly why we needed to fill you in with the basics first. Material selection is key in the planning stages of your project because it will affect different aspects of the execution, such as budget and timeline, but also because it will basically tell the road that your project will go through.
MATERIAL COMBINATIONS
Why is it important?
Now that we’ve covered the basics, let’s get started with the specifics. Why is it important to choose wisely the materials that will go in your interior design project and not just choose whatever material you just liked at first?
