Who makes the rules anyway? I’m usually one for following the “rules” but I think some commonly held rules for home interiors do not always need to be followed. As long as spaces are harmonious and beautiful while working in a functional way, it is good interior design. While there are some key rules to follow, it is not math and there is a lot of room for interpretation.

In my own home, I have broken a number of interior design “rules”. Here is where I could get into some serious trouble with the interior design police!
