A home with good flow invites you to move effortlessly from room to room, fostering a sense of harmony and ease. It’s about more than just functionality—it’s about creating an experience where every space feels connected, telling a cohesive visual story that enhances comfort and well-being.
For a young, social family in Cherry Hill, I designed this basement entertainment room to be their ultimate hub for gatherings. From cozy evenings with family to lively get-togethers with friends, the space tells their story of connection, hospitality, and celebration.
To improve the flow in your home, focus on three key areas:
Layout: The foundation of flow begins with evaluating your home’s layout. Identify areas where movement feels blocked and reimagine the space for better circulation.
Placement: Thoughtful furniture arrangement is crucial. Position pieces to facilitate natural movement, ensuring pathways are open and the space feels unrestricted. I staged the dining room above, wanting to highlight the incredible base of the dining room table. I added the plant, the centerpiece, and arranged the artwork to showcase the modern farmhouse elements of the room.
Scale: Furniture and decor should be proportionate to the room’s size. Proper scaling creates balance and significantly impacts how a space feels.
By considering these elements, you can transform your home into a space that flows beautifully and effortlessly.
I recently designed the modern farmhouse inspired dining room shown above in the Main Line. We used CAD to ensure that the proportion of furniture and objects were perfectly scaled for the size of the room. These are the subtle details that can dramatically affect how the space feels.
