Materials must work with the room
Colour and texture shape atmosphere, maintenance, and the way a surface feels in use. Material choices should be considered from the overall composition down to the smallest junction.
Light changes the way details are seen
Natural and artificial light should be considered alongside use, material finishes, and the times of day a room comes alive. Together, they create depth without tiring the eye.
Proportion is the feeling we rarely name
Walking distances, furniture heights, empty space, and visual weight all influence whether a room feels open, calm, or formal. The right balance comes from tuning these details together.
