   THE "MAKE IT FIT" SERIES 4:  BALANCE IS KEY!! Hi there, I hope you are doing great It's always a delight connecting with an amazing audience whose feedback and support is second to none. I sincerely appreciate you all 🙏 As I round up The "MAKE IT FIT" series, I hope I have been able to help you identify and understand basic principles that come to play when making things fit within your spaces. You can use any of the link below if you don't mind referring to my previous posts where I shared insights on the principles of Form/Shape and Proportions 👇 https://shorturl.at/gpIPV Now let's round it up with BALANCE  Balance is a principle of interior design that visually stabilizes a space, simply put it is the means by which you ensure that no single element in a space overpowers another in terms of visual weight or dominance.

  THE "MAKE IT FIT" SERIES 3:  PROPER PORTION!! Hello folks, Trust you are doing great and having an awesome weekend. I assume the love from valentine's day 💞 is still in the air 😍 Still on The "MAKE IT FIT" series, and with the same intention to share insights on how to make things fit within your space, I hope to help you identify and understand basic principles that come to play when making things fit within your spaces. The first principle, which is Form/Shape was addressed in my last post and you can follow through using this link 👇 https://shorturl.at/ouEW3 Taking it further, I will be addressing another principle known as PROPORTION, and to simplify this principle I thought to use a blend of two words "PROPER" and "PORTION", hoping my ingenuity will go a long way to help my audience grasp the role of proportion in making the best of spaces.

Hi there, I guess you are having an amazing weekend and working towards showing some love this valentine 💞 I introduced a new series for the month in my last post, titled The "MAKE IT FIT" series, with the intention to share insights on how to make things fit within your space. As a reminder, the series is born out of my encounter with spaces costing a fortune to set up, yet failing to make a mark simply because the occupants never paid attention to the importance of making things fit. The objective of this series is therefore to help my audience avoid similar mistakes as I help you identify and understand basic principles that come to play when making things fit within your spaces. I will be addressing 3 of these principles starting with Form or Shape, and using 3 illustrations as follows 👇 #1:  OWN THE LAYOUT OF YOUR SPACE  This is extremely unlike me but please permit me to take a line from a song by the leg

I'm delighted to have your audience as always, more so as I launch a new series for the month, where I share insights on how to make things fit within your space. The inspiration for The "MAKE IT FIT" series is born out of my encounter with spaces costing a fortune to set up, yet failing to make a mark simply because the occupants never paid attention to the importance of making things fit. There are a couple of principles that come to play when making things fit within spaces, however for the sake of time limit and the need for simplicity, I will be dwelling on just 3 of them throughout this series 👇 #1:  FORM/ SHAPES If you have ever tried placing a round peg in a square hole, then you sure have an idea of what a misfit is. The advent of internet and social media has birthed what I call a
