Hey friend! Have you ever wondered how designers get scale and proportion 'just right?' Or you've thought - they were born with great spatial awareness so they must be innately good at seeing a room and feeling if it's 'off' or 'perfect.' The real design secret: it comes down to math!

 

In today's episode I'm sharing a bit of history about the ancient, from nature, math sequence that inspires many industries, home design included. The Fibonnaci Sequence is a sequence of numbers that when added together create perfect scale and proportion. When used in home decorating, that scale and proportion is the heart of making a room look cohesive, put together and aesthetically pleasing!

 

The ratio is SO IMPORTANT it is known in the design world as THE GOLDEN RATIO, thus making each 'rule' it applies to The Golden Rule of x (choosing an area rug, choosing a paint palette, choosing the correct size for a coffee table, etc). What is that ratio. 40:60. Enjoy today's conversation where I share 5 rules that you can use this golden ratio for when decorating your home. And, when you're ready to have a bit of help transforming your home into one that you absolutely love...give me a call. Decorating SOS Calls are one hour via zoom conversations guiding you toward decision making with personalized action steps that help you reach your end goal. The best part? The recommendations use what you have, honor your budget and encourage your individual growth!
