As i ve been putting together the living room the design principle of balance has come forefront in my mind.
Living room asymmetrical balance interior design.
This room like the last uses a central point from which to balance the asymmetrical design.
So photos of the living room reveal to come soon.
Balancing the strong linear lines of the tv cabinet is the long sofa opposite while the two light grey chairs are balancing the window opposite.
With asymmetrical balance a middle point or range continues to be found but differing home furniture are being used to set up balance.
Unlike the previous however this room arranges the furniture on the grid.
Asymmetrical balance is also called informal balance.
In the meantime i have an important design 101 principle to share today.
Every item you put in a room whether its a piece of furniture or a decorative accent has visual weight.
Symmetrical design themes make it easy for the brain to process the décor idea when someone walks into a room.
Balance is a key element of good interior design.
Radial balance this is the least used type of balancing a look and design of a room.
This asymmetrical fireplace above uses balance by the use of decorative objects either side of it to create harmony and stability in this living space.
It is pleasing to the eye because it makes sense.
Symmetry is generally seen in a traditional setting.
It involves setting similar items in an area such as you would find on a dining room table.
