Space planning is the foundation of good interior design.
It focuses on how people move through a home, how rooms connect, and how furniture, storage, and lighting work together.
Without strong space planning, even the most expensive finishes can feel awkward.
Many homeowners start with colours and furniture, but layout decisions should always come first.
Room proportions, circulation routes, and sightlines all influence how a home feels day to day.
For whole property projects, this is where Full Home Interior Design adds the most value.
Common layout problems
A well planned layout supports how you live.
This might mean opening sightlines, zoning open plan areas, or rethinking bedroom storage.
Designers consider proportions, furniture scale, and future needs, not just today’s trends.
You can view how space planning fits within a wider design service on the Services page.
When redesigning an entire home, space planning ensures consistency across every room.
It helps kitchens connect logically to dining spaces, bedrooms feel calm and functional, and storage is integrated rather than added as an afterthought.
