Decorations for oddly placed large window in small living room I’m considering hanging bamboo Roman blinds (these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PC37GZ8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) but I don’t understand where I would put the brackets. The window isn’t in the middle of that section of wall. Adding curtains/blinds just emphasize the odd placement- especially since the window is very big (80 x 44 in). How do I m…

I swore I wouldn’t buy furniture because it was on clearance this time. I’m looking to create a conversation area that is functional and creative considering the room is hard to furnish.

is Honours important in interior design? To all interior designers – is it really important to have an honours degree to get a job?

Did I mess up?? Did I mess up? I am a model home builder. I was in a rush and tile installer was coming next day. I wasn’t really paying attention to the salesman. I could’ve sworn the floor tile sample was gray or a variant of gray. I just think it looks horrible. Obviously the mistake isn’t worth tearing it out but I just feel it doesn’t match the way I like …
