How the Details ‘Make the Design’

Posted on August 25, 2011 By Kelly (Edit) Leave a Comment

American designer Charles Eames said something that really stands true in terms of interior design: “The details are not the details. They make the design.” While it’s very important that a room look good when taken as a whole, it’s definitely the little things that tie the space together into a complete, cohesive look.

Home on the Range did the interior design for this Western, ranch-style home, and this particular photo offers a close-up view that really highlights the details; just look at how the rough-hewn wood and accessories—right down to the hat and lantern—help transform this into a decidedly rustic space.

Charles Eames could not have been more right. From the architectural moulding to the accessories and materials, every detail in a space contributes to creating and showcasing your personal style. If you’re looking for an interior designer in Steamboat Springs, CO who can beautify your space down to the details, contact Home on the Range. We’d be happy to help.
