Understanding Design Psychology - How Interiors Affect Mood

Before considering how a space will look. I always like to consider how you want it to make you feel first! Maybe an entire home will be cohesive and transmit the same vibe throughout or perhaps you like to have a lot of variety to create different spaces for different moods and activities. Like a dark and moody room for movies or reading vs a bright and open area for gathering and entertaining. Luxury interior design is more than just aesthetics; it’s about creating an atmosphere that influences emotions, behaviors, and overall well-being.

The psychology of design plays a pivotal role in shaping how spaces make us feel, from relaxation and comfort to inspiration and energy. Understanding these psychological principles allows designers to curate spaces that enhance both mood and functionality.
