The article features interior design expert Lana Dullaghan sharing essential tips for furnishing a new home. Dullaghan emphasizes the importance of measuring room dimensions and understanding the space's function before furniture shopping. She advises homeowners to consider how they plan to use each room, which guides the selection of furniture pieces. Setting a color palette first is crucial for cohesive design, and investing in a statement piece, such as artwork, can anchor the overall decor and help with subsequent choices. Scale matters significantly, as many misjudge the size of furniture in their spaces.
"Before you even browse, measure everything. You want to know the exact dimensions of each room, along with the location of doorways, windows and any architectural quirks."
"Ask yourself: how do I live in this room? Am I entertaining? Working from home? Relaxing? Your answers will help guide which pieces are most essential."
