The process is meant to organise the layout in such a way that it is optimised for functionality and aesthetics. This includes placement of furniture, fixtures and other elements in a particular space. Some of the suggested steps include the following.
At every step, keep the design style, colour schemes, material choices etc. in mind to maintain harmony and aesthetics.
Consider the lifestyle, activities, number of occupants, guests, etc. and align these to the design goals.
Take the dimensions of the space and consider architectural features like windows, doors, columns, electrical outlets etc. and design keeping the movement path also in mind.
Divide the entire space to functional zones based on the requirements like seating area, TV unit, reading nook, etc. in a living room for instance.
Choice and placement of furniture is a key area in Space Planning. Factors like traffic flow, comfort, visual appeal, are to be considered. Keep in mind the ease of movement and social interaction when furniture is planned for your spaces.
Emphasise visual harmony by distributing visual weight equally throughout the space. Balance larger pieces of furniture with smaller elements and use focal points like artwork, architectural features, statement furniture, etc. to create visually appealing spaces.
The primary focus has to be on natural lighting and in addition use of proper lighting tastefully. The fixtures and lighting have to be thought of at an early stage so that the electrical lines and outlets can be planned at the right places.
Plan appropriate storage options as per the requirements and minimise clutter. Built-in cabinets and shelves are some great options
Consider future changes in requirements as kids grow up, elders get older and lifestyle changes due to these. Multi functional furniture, movable partitions etc. are some ideas.
