But sometimes, bad design can be just as memorable. Interior designing is a delicate balance between creating an attractive, civilized, meaningful environment and ensuring real comfort, natural lighting when needed, and interesting space.

The architecture and interior decoration world is full of timeless wisdom, often captured in witty and thought-provoking quotes.

One such memorable quote comes from Henry David Thoreau, who advised, “What is the use of a house if you haven’t got a tolerable planet to put it on?”

This reminder of the importance of sustainability is echoed by Brian Reed, who posited that “The oldest thing you can say about a great architecture is that it’s green.”

Amidst the challenge of designing the perfect home, incorporating plants and maximizing natural light can make a significant difference in creating a truly harmonious living space.  And it can pose an amusing challenge at times!

Meanwhile, the controversial item in many homes – wall art – can spark endless debate and discussion, proving that interior decoration is never easy but can offer moments of humor and light-heartedness when not taken so seriously!
