5 Interior Design Tips to Instantly Elevate Your Home
Designing a home that feels uniquely yours doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch or blowing the budget. Whether you're in Launceston, Hobart, Devonport or anywhere in between, small design changes can have a big impact. Here are five expert interior design tips to help you elevate your space with style, function and flow.
1. Layer Your Lighting
Lighting is one of the most powerful tools in interior design. We always recommend a mix of ambient, task and accent lighting to create a warm and functional home. Think dimmable overhead pendants in the kitchen, soft lamps in the living room and wall sconces to highlight artwork or architectural details.
2. Mix Old and New
A home feels most lived-in and loved when it reflects you. Don’t be afraid to blend heirloom pieces with contemporary furniture or a statement artwork. In many Tasmanian homes, especially character properties in Launceston or Hobart, a mix of old and new brings out the home’s personality while adding depth and contrast.
3. Don’t Skip the Finishes
Hardware, tapware and even your light switches can add sophistication when chosen intentionally. We love working with our clients to select finishes that feel cohesive and elevate the everyday. A brushed brass handle or matte black tap can make all the difference.
4. Invest in a Floor Plan
Before you buy that beautiful sofa, make sure it fits! Space planning is essential to avoid an overcrowded room or awkward layout. As part of our interior design services across Tasmania, we always start with scale and function before styling.
5. Bring in the Locals
Tasmania has some incredibly talented local makers and suppliers. Whether it's hand-thrown ceramics, custom timber furniture, or locally sourced stone, we love integrating Tasmanian craftsmanship into our projects—adding meaning and story to each home.
Whether you're planning a renovation, a new build or just need help refining your interior style, GET Creative Interiors offers personalised interior design and styling services across Launceston, Devonport, Hobart and statewide.
