4 Reasons To Use An Interior Stylist

Creating a space that feels like a reflection of you, while also being functional and cohesive is a true art. One that takes time, patience and experience to deliver seamlessly. And the best person for this task is an interior stylist. With their expertise and keen eye for design, an interior stylist can confidently guide you in creating a home that is authentic to your unique vision and needs. We’re a
little bias here at Few and Far with our own talented team of interior stylists offering their services, however we believe that utilising a design expert has many benefits. Below we’ve outlined our top four reasons for enlisting the support of an interior stylist (you can thank us later!)

A fresh perspective
Bringing an interior stylist into your home ensures that you’ll receive new perspective from a trained eye, and they’ll be able to view your space in a different light. They can suggest ideas on the layout of a room for optimal functionality and what colours and furniture will complement your existing
furnishings. You’ll also be prompted to think about your home with questions from an interior stylist, which will allow you to reflect on how you want the space to feel and how you want to live in it. This process can help you to define your must-have inclusions in the design of a space.

Refine and define
Are you the type of person that has thousands of images pinned on your Pinterest board? Not to mention a stack of magazines for inspiration of your dream home. Interior stylists are well versed in helping clients sift through their ideas and refining a concept for a space. They can confidently tell you what will look best in your home and what will function perfectly for you and your family day-to-
day. On the flipside, an interior stylist can also inform you on what won’t work in a room (this can provide you with the clarity to narrow down your selections and avoid costly mistakes).

Master of mood boards
A key skill that an interior stylist has is the ability to help you to visualise a space - without having to set foot in a showroom or purchase samples. A lack of time and experience is often what causes overwhelm when it comes to making selections for a space. However, an interior stylist is an expert in consolidating all of your imagery and ideas together, then presenting it to you on a mood board. A
mood board is a visual representation of the design concept being considered for a room and will help you to understand how all the elements work together.

Save valuable time and money
How many times have you purchased something, then got home and realised it’s too big, too small or the wrong colour for your space? Don’t worry, you are definitely not the only one. You can breathe a sigh of relief when your project is in the hands of an experienced interior stylist. They will guide you in making the right selections (first time round) with an approved mood board and comprehensive specification sheet that outlines every piece for the space (including artwork,
furniture and décor). This will prevent costly mistakes and save money by ensuring it is the perfect piece to start with. A stylist will do all the research for you, saving you many hours spent trekking through furniture stores, showrooms and searching online.
