    What are some tips for choosing colors, furniture, and decor that feel unique but not cluttered? Also, how do you balance creativity with practicality? Any resources, tools, or examples of successful custom interiors would be amazing.

    Hi!

    To create a cohesive custom interior, start by defining your style and mood. Make a mood board with colors, textures, and furniture you love. Choose a base color palette of 2–3 main colors and use accents for interest.

    If you’re looking for inspiration or professional guidance, I’ve seen great examples from Se7en Interiors, which showcase creative yet functional designs. Prioritize furniture that fits your space without crowding it and add unique décor pieces sparingly to avoid clutter. Tools like Pinterest, Houzz, or Canva can help visualize your ideas.

    Balance creativity with practicality by layering bold pieces gradually.
