Yes! That may be totally right in many aspects of life but when it comes to decoration and interior design; <strong>bending the rules<\/strong> a little can transform your space from predictable to unique with simple yet creative moves.<\/p>\n<p>Which is why; we present you with 6 common <strong>interior design rules<\/strong> that if broken will take your d\u00e9cor style to a whole new level of <strong>chicness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1- Small spaces and big furniture don&#8217;t mix<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6144\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/big_furniture.jpg\" alt=\"Small spaces and big furniture\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/big_furniture.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/big_furniture-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a logic thought when decorating small spaces and a safe move, but it doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean it is the right move.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invest in one large piece of furniture<\/strong> and your space will have its own voice; just make sure while doing so to mix some small furniture or accessories items for a simpler look.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2- It is always preferable to stick to one interior design theme<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6148\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/one_interior_design_theme.jpg\" alt=\"stick to one interior design theme\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/one_interior_design_theme.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/one_interior_design_theme-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That rule is meant to get broken. Sticking to one interior design theme will only <strong>create boring space<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Remember! The key here is to always be moderate and never cross that fine line between unique and just looking odd.<\/p>\n<p>Mixing modern with classic will give your space a <strong>vibrant feel<\/strong> and a sense of playfulness with varied interior design themes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3- Go for lighter paint colors in small spaces<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6146\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/lighter_paint_colors.jpg\" alt=\"Go for lighter paint colors in small spaces\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/lighter_paint_colors.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/lighter_paint_colors-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Just because your space is small, doesn\u2019t mean you are doomed to live with paint colors you don&#8217;t find appealing.<\/p>\n<p>Yes! <strong>Experts advise<\/strong> you to bend this rule to suit your taste. Going for darker shades can actually add life to your space.<\/p>\n<p>And for an even catchier look, you can <strong>create a depth <\/strong>in your space through the use of brighter colored items that will create an appealing contrast with your wall colors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4- Dining table chairs should be matching<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6145\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Dining_table_chairs_ar.jpg\" alt=\"Dining table chairs should be matching\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Dining_table_chairs_ar.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Dining_table_chairs_ar-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That is always the safest move when it comes to decoration and interior design styles. <strong>Mismatched furniture<\/strong> is actually a trend this year and it helps create that quirky and playful mood in your space.<\/p>\n<p>You either go the chairs with different colors and same style or different style and same color or both are different. The point is to think out of the box if you wish to create an effect of <strong>uniqueness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5- Symmetrical rooms are appealing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6149\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Symmetrical_rooms_ar.jpg\" alt=\"Symmetrical rooms are appealing\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Symmetrical_rooms_ar.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Symmetrical_rooms_ar-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Yes! they are extremely appealing to the eye but they are also ordinary. However, if you wish to create an eye-popping and extraordinary room, then <strong>asymmetrical elements<\/strong> are the key.<\/p>\n<p>Your frames don&#8217;t have to be hung in the center of your wall and your bed doesn&#8217;t have to be evenly situated between the two bed-side tables.<\/p>\n<p>Asymmetrical elements work on creating a visual curiosity and a sense of singularity to your space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6- Matching Wood tones<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6147\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.weetas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/matching_wood_tones_ar.jpg\" alt=\"Matching Wood tones\" width=\"600\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/matching_wood_tones_ar.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weetas.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/matching_wood_tones_ar-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Going with this rule won\u2019t harm your interior design but won\u2019t make it sparkly.
