Designer Tips

What is some sound design advice you share when creating a:
 
Family Room
Comfort is key, if possible, separate area for games or extra seating. Sofa table with stools for study or entry areas.
 
Dining Room
Use bold color or a mural wall paper in what is usually a boring area. Print fabric on the backs of the chairs.
 
Master Bedroom
Think Serenity, refuge, sanctuary. Fluffy down comforter, textures in pillows and rugs.
 
Kids rooms
Cozy refuge. Paint the ceiling a color, wall paper, make a fabric tent or canopy over the bed.
 
Kitchen Set
Textures, woven backs on chairs with metal legs, or woven leather seats to offset the coldness of the metal appliances. Add Interesting lighting too.
 
Home Office
Not only having it set up for working efficiently, but add comfortable chairs to read and/or relax.
 
Living Room
Mix it up and add something eclectic like traditional tastes, add a contemporary painting over an antique chest.
