The principles of interior design are the foundational guidelines that designers use to create your spaces that are both beautiful and functional. These principles ensure your home not only looks cohesive, but also feels comfortable and serves its intended purpose.
Design, at its core, is the intentional arrangement of one or more of these principles—organized to achieve a specific goal or effect.
The seven core principles are:
balance
emphasis
contrast
scale
proportion
rhythm
unity and variety
When unity and variety work together, they create harmony—the ultimate goal of any well-designed space.
These principles are the backbone of great design. They help ensure that your space is designed beautifully, while still reflecting your unique style and meeting the practical needs of your everyday life. In this post, we’ll focus on the design principle known as rhythm—and explore how you can apply this principle to help create your dream home.
How Rhythm Transforms a Room: A Secret Revealed
Want to create a beautiful, harmonious space in your home?
One of the best-kept design secrets to achieve this is to use the design principle known as rhythm.
Rhythm in interior design is all about repeating key elements—such as colours, lines, shapes, or patterns—throughout a space. This repetition creates a sense of movement and flow, guiding the eye naturally from one area to the next. The result is a room that feels cohesive, balanced, and visually inviting.
Whether it’s a consistent colour echoed in throw pillows, or a repeated shape found in accessories or furniture details, rhythm acts as the connective thread. It ties the room together and brings a sense of cohesion to the entire design story.

Colour Rhythm
Rhythm is a key design principle that suggests motion and guides the eye seamlessly from one area or object to another. It helps create visual interest and a sense of harmony. When design elements are arranged into an organized pattern—whether through color, shape, or texture—they establish rhythm. For example, an interior designer could create rhythm by using a colour.
I’ve developed a lot of hands-on experience using rhythm to unify spaces. It’s a technique I apply often, whether I’m staging homes for sale or styling a renovated or redecorated space for clients.
Take, for example, the condo pictured above. The owners wanted to lighten and brighten their living room but also hoped to keep their existing dark charcoal sectionals. In an east-facing room with limited natural light, the heavy furniture made the space feel even darker.
To address this, I introduced as much white as possible to reflect light and create a brighter, more inviting atmosphere—just as the homeowners asked. I applied the design principle of rhythm to establish a visual flow by repeating white elements throughout the room.
Your eye moves from the white walls to the white wall art and lamp shades, then to the whitewashed console. The white is picked up again in the pillows and throw on the sectional, echoed in the whitewashed coffee table, and seen again in the decorative accents and area rug. This subtle repetition of white elements creates a colour rhythm that ties the entire space together.
Refer to the photo above to see how this rhythm creates rhythm, brightness, and harmony in the room. The dining room below also using a white colour rhythm to unite the space and make it appear larger.

Summary
In the living room featured in this post, all the new white furniture and decor helped lighten and brighten the space, just as the homeowners wanted. The design principle of rhythm played a key role in achieving this effect. Rhythm in interior design is crucial for creating visually pleasing and cohesive environments that feel both dynamic and balanced.Crafting harmonious and inviting spaces is a key goal in interior design, and understanding the concept of rhythm is essential to achieving this. I also incorporated other principles such as emphasis and balance, but explaining those here would make for a much longer post. An expert interior design professional keep these principles in their mind when working on your project and that is exactly what I do!
As you can see, using even one design principle effectively takes thought, expertise and intention—let alone combining several in one space. So, if you find decorating overwhelming, you’re not alone—and I’d love to help.

If you’ve ever been confused about the difference between an interior decorator and an interior designer, you’re definitely not alone.
In fact, even within the industry, the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, leading to plenty of confusion. Over the years, I’ve spoken with homeowners, clients, and business owners etc. who weren’t quite sure where the line is drawn. So, I decided to dig in and do some research and get clear on the distinctions myself.
This post is here to share what I’ve learned—so the next time someone asks (whether it’s a client or a curious friend), we’ll all have a clear answer.
You might also be wondering whether both interior decorators and interior designers take on your renovation projects. It’s a great question—especially now, when renovating your kitchen or another part of your home is often a smarter, more practical choice than moving.
With rising tariffs, ongoing economic uncertainty, and the high cost of buying a new home, many homeowners are choosing to stay put. Purchasing a new property often involves reworking your mortgage and taking on added financial stress. That’s why more and more people are choosing to invest in upgrading and personalizing the space they already have.
So, if you are considering renovating your kitchen or bath you may be asking, do decorators and designers both handle renovations? The short answer is—yes, it could be either. Read on to find out what I mean.

Education
While there is often some overlap in skills, interior decorators and interior designers differ significantly in their training and the types of projects they are qualified to take on.
I became familiar with interior decorating programs in Ontario after graduating from Seneca’s Interior Decorating program. However, I realized I knew less about what kind of education interior designers receive. As I considered going back to school to study interior design, I took a deep dive into some of the local design programs.
What I discovered was eye-opening. Interior designers are trained to design interiors for new builds, commercial spaces such as offices, restaurants, and hotels, as well as residential renovations. Their education includes extensive study of building codes, fire and safety regulations, and technical requirements to ensure compliance with local and national standards. This specialized training qualifies them to work on projects like new home construction and renovating commercial interiors—areas where interior decorators are not typically involved.
However, when it comes to homes that are already built, these technical services that involve building codes are often not required. In those cases, a decorator’s expertise in residential design, space planning, and aesthetic enhancements may be exactly what’s needed.
That said, interior designers are also trained to furnish and renovate residential spaces—just like interior decorators. This is where their roles overlap, and it’s particularly relevant for homeowners like yourself to be aware of.

Should I Hire an Interior Designer or Decorator
If you’re looking to refresh or renovate your existing home, both decorators and designers are capable of helping. However, hiring an interior designer may not always be the most practical choice, especially since their time is often divided between commercial projects, new builds, and residential work- so they may not always develop the same depth of expertise in residential design.
Interior decorators, on the other hand, specialize exclusively in homes that are already built—just like yours. Their focus is solely on residential spaces, which makes them experts in creating beautiful, functional homes. Because of this focused expertise, decorators often provide a more cost-effective, personalized approach to residential renovations and redecorating projects. Our training is tailored specifically to residential work, with interior decorating programs placing strong emphasis on space planning, aesthetics, and updating existing homes. This singular focus allows decorators to become true specialists in home renovations and redecorating projects—bringing both creativity and practicality to every project.
Additionally, since many decorators—like Lynteriors—operate from home studios, we’re able to keep our overhead costs low. Decorating firms are often smaller and sometimes have home studios so the costs are lower. With minimal expenses such as showroom rent, we’re able to pass those savings directly on to you. So, one key difference between designers and decoratorsis cost – interior decorators typically charge less. So, if your project involves updating or re-imagining your current home or renovating, a decorator may be the perfect fit—bringing both focused expertise and value.
Interior designers work with architects and builders to design and construct new homes, and they also collaborate with contractors and architects on renovations. Similarly, interior decorators—like myself—often work alongside architects, contractors, and other industry professionals to renovate kitchens and bathrooms. These projects can include tearing down walls, re-configuring layouts, or adding extensions.
When structural changes are involved—such as removing a wall or expanding a space—decorators frequently bring in architects to ensure everything is done safely. Architects are trained in building regulations, structural requirements, and are licensed to draw up legal plans for extensions. They can identify which walls are load-bearing and require beams for support, and which can be removed without compromising the home’s structure. This collaboration is essential for safe, effective renovations that meet legal and structural standards.
Furthermore, just like interior designers, decorators are also trained to create functional, efficient, and visually appealing spaces that reflect your needs, preferences, and budget. Both professions are taught how to produce design drawings and plans to support our concepts. Drawings that allow you to see if Lynteriors, for example, has captured your dream space or not.
Interestingly, not all designers are passionate about working with colour—my friend’s daughter, who studied interior design and works for a firm, found that aspect less enjoyable. She prefers creating drawings in order to design rooms. In contrast, many interior decorators thrive on the creative use of colour, texture, and furnishings to bring a space to life.
What Separates a Designer from a Decorator
As you can see in the graph below, both interior designers and interior decorators can assist with residential renovations—including creating design drawings, planning cosmetic updates, supporting wall removal projects, and designing kitchen extensions. The key difference lies in the focus of their training programs and areas of specialization.
Interior decorating programs concentrate specifically on residential spaces, particularly existing homes. In contrast, interior design programs cover a broader scope, including commercial spaces, new builds, and residential projects.
So, if your project involves redecorating or renovating a home that’s already lived in, hiring an interior designer may be more than you need. An interior decorator—who specializes in updating and improving existing residential spaces—can be a more targeted and cost-effective choice. However, if your project involves a commercial space or a new build, an interior designer is the better fit due to their advanced training in construction of new builds and building codes.

Well-Known Interior Decorator:
Shea McGee
I hold an interior decorating accreditation from Seneca College, but it’s worth noting that many successful design studio owners and design consultants do not have formal design degrees. For example, Shea McGee—now a household name in design—doesn’t hold a formal degree in interior design or even an interior decorating accreditation. Despite that, when she was starting out, she designed kitchens and bathrooms for homeowners.
Shea took some online design courses but never completed a formal interior design program. One of her earliest major projects was her mother’s home in Utah, which included a full kitchen renovation—something she tackled independently at the beginning of her career. While she didn’t hold the official title of “interior designer” at the time, she was already creating beautiful, functional spaces without formal credentials.
That said, residential homes—including their kitchens—are being successfully renovated by both accredited decorators and those without formal training. However, hiring an interior decorator with formal education means you’re working with someone who understands core design principles, space planning, and technical skills like drawing and drafting—tools that bring structure and clarity to your project.
If your space is a new build or a commercial property, that’s a different matter entirely. Those projects typically require the involvement of a licensed interior designer who is trained in building codes,and fire regulations which are required for these projects.

An Interior Decorator that Pioneered Decorating/ Design Industry
Elsie De Wolfe and the History
Very few people realize that interior decorating—and the role of the interior decorator—actually came before the profession of interior design. Interior decorating as a profession is just over 100 years old. In that time, what began as an artistic pursuit rooted in aesthetics, form, and function has evolved into a respected discipline.
Elsie de Wolfe is often credited as the first interior decorator to receive a professional commission. She began her career in 1905 and is widely recognized as the “grand dame of modern decorating.” Many consider her the originator of the interior design profession, often referring to her as the “first modern professional decorator.”
At that time, the title of “interior designer” didn’t exist—and there were no formal education programs for residential decorators like Elsie. Despite this, she left a lasting impact on the field and proved that decorators could successfully lead residential renovation projects, including kitchens and bathrooms, based on their talent, vision, and experience.
Today, interior decorators of residential spaces are supported by formal education in design principles, space planning, colour theory, drafting and other decorating techniques. This training equips us to manage a wide range of your home renovation and redecorating projects with confidence and creativity.
The quoted text above is sourced from the following blog. If you’d like to learn more about Elsie de Wolfe and her legacy, click on the button below:
In Ontario, interior decorators— or interior design consultants—are specifically trained to renovate and decorate existing homes. While interior designers are ideal for commercial projects or new builds due to their extensive training in building codes, they can be overqualified (and more expensive) for residential renovations though.
If you’re updating an existing space, a skilled interior decorator can deliver results that are just as beautiful and functional—often at a more affordable rate. Professionals like Shea McGee and Elsie de Wolfe prove that decorators can achieve stunning renovation transformations without formal design degrees.
Whether it’s a one-room refresh or a full kitchen renovation, interior decorators offer a refined eye, cost-effective solutions, and the design expertise to help you avoid costly mistakes. Plus, I wanted to add that decorating with furnishings is the finishing touch that adds warmth, personality, and that wow factor to your home—which is why we always plan for it from the very beginning.
As a certified interior decorator, I bring years of education and experience to blend creativity with practical know-how to turn your home into a space you’ll love every day.

Affordable Countertop Ideas to Elevate Your Kitchen in 2025
Whether you’re planning a full kitchen renovation or just a simple refresh, selecting the right countertop material is a key decision. In today’s world—where budget-friendly options are more important than ever—it’s possible to achieve both style and function without overspending.
Countertops are more than just practical surfaces. They’re a major design focal point that can dramatically change the look and feel of your kitchen or bathroom. As one of the first elements people notice in a kitchen, countertops set the tone for your space and serve as the primary workspace, making them crucial for both aesthetics and functionality.
As we move through 2025, the demand for durable, sustainable, and visually appealing countertops continues to grow. The good news? You don’t need a luxury budget to transform your kitchen. With affordable options, you can enhance your home’s style and usability without compromising quality.
If you’re considering a renovation, your budget will play a big role in choosing the right material. Fortunately, there are plenty of cost-effective countertop options that offer both beauty and performance—without breaking the bank.
In this blog post, we’re highlighting 2 cost-effective countertop ideas that can give your kitchen a fresh, modern update without the high price tag.
➡️ Ready to be inspired? Let’s dive in!
The Role of Kitchen Countertops
A kitchen countertop is more than just a surface—it’s a core element of your kitchen’s design and functionality. Typically made from materials like stone, wood, or quartz (engineered stone), countertops are installed on top of base cabinets and provide a firm, flat workspace for food prep, clean-up, and everyday kitchen tasks.
This year, two standout materials are gaining popularity: one is an eco-friendly choice that supports a greener future, while the other is a high-tech option that elevates performance and functionality. Both offer unique benefits that can transform your kitchen into a space that’s as practical as it is stylish.
In this post, we’ll explore these two popular countertop options: wood and quartz. Each offers its own unique blend of style, durability, and charm—helping you create a kitchen that’s both beautiful and practical.
#1: Wood Countertops:
While cool grays and crisp whites have dominated kitchen design in recent years, warm wood tones are making a strong comeback. As more homeowners seek to reconnect with nature, the demand for sustainable and organic materials has brought wood back into the spotlight.
Walnut, cherry, maple, and mahogany countertops add a natural richness and warmth, creating kitchens that feel welcoming and grounded. In 2025, wood countertops are poised to be a top choice once again, offering a timeless aesthetic that blends organic charm with modern design sensibilities.
Thanks to advancements in sealing and finishing techniques, wood countertops today are more durable and water-resistant, making them a practical option as well as a beautiful one. For those who want to combine functionality with a cozy, natural look, wood remains a standout option.
Wood countertops offer a unique blend of warmth and texture that complements both modern and rustic kitchen styles. Their natural grain and organic appeal provide a beautiful contrast to sleek, contemporary finishes, adding character to the space.
One of the greatest advantages of wood countertops is their versatility. Whether your kitchen leans toward contemporary, minimalist, modern farmhouse, rustic, cottage, transitional, traditional, or country design, wood fits right in—enhancing the aesthetic without overpowering it.
Maple Countertop
The best wood for countertops ultimately depends on your personal style, functional needs, and budget. While several hardwoods perform well in the kitchen, maple is one of the most popular choices—and for good reason.
Maple is a light-coloured hardwood prized for its smooth, consistent grain and impressive durability. It holds up well to daily use, making it ideal for high-traffic kitchens. Its neutral tone complements a wide range of design styles—from traditional to modern—and can add a soft warmth to any space.
In white kitchens, maple and other light-toned woods help break up the uniformity, infusing the room with natural warmth and a soft glow. Light woods like maple or ash bring a clean, airy aesthetic while maintaining a cozy, welcoming feel. Whether you’re going for a sleek modern look or something more rustic and inviting, maple offers a timeless appeal that works beautifully across design styles.
Are Wood Countertops Less Expensive?
Wood countertops are generally more budget-friendly than natural stone or engineered materials like quartz. On average, wood countertop installation costs range from $50 to $150 per square foot, making them a cost-effective option for homeowners seeking style without the high price tag. While materials like granite and quartz offer superior stain and heat resistance, wood provides warmth, character, and savings—especially for DIY enthusiasts. If you want an affordable option that exudes warmth and want to install it yourself than a wood countertop may be the perfect option for you.
For example, our own wood countertop project cost around $1,400, but we significantly reduced costs by handling the finishing ourselves—applying a sealant and adding chamfered edges. While DIY projects may require more time and effort, they offer exceptional value. One of the biggest advantages of wood countertops is their DIY-friendliness—you can install them yourself, just like we did, making them even more affordable than quartz or granite.
In contrast, quartz, marble and granite are difficult to install without professional help, as they are heavy and can crack easily if not handled properly. Choosing wood not only saves money and is easier to install, but also gives you more flexibility and creative control. For example, wood has many stain options and wood grain options giving you a lot of stylish creative flexibility. And if you choose maple—a locally sourced, budget-friendly hardwood—you’ll enjoy even greater savings without sacrificing durability or style.
Plus, Canadian maple is an affordable choice because it’s locally grown right here in Canada. By choosing Canadian maple, you’re not only getting a beautiful, budget-friendly material—you’re also supporting Canadian businesses and helping to strengthen our economy. When you invest in homegrown products, we all benefit. That’s why I make it a priority to source as many materials and furnishings as possible from Canadian suppliers for you as my client.
#2: Quartz
Why Quartz Might Be the Perfect Upgrade for Your Kitchen
If you’re considering a countertop upgrade, quartz might be just the solution—just ask one of my recent clients. She initially planned to replace her worn laminate countertops with another laminate in a brown finish. However, after we reviewed the pros and cons, I recommended quartz as a smarter alternative.
Since she was thinking about putting her home on the market soon, I explained that quartz offers a stronger return on investment compared to laminate. She also wanted a surface that would clean easily and wouldn’t develop the foggy appearance that granite sometimes shows. Quartz checked all the boxes—low maintenance, and resale value.
In the end, she chose quartz and was absolutely thrilled with the results.
Here’s what she had to say in her Houzz review:
“Lynn Asbury most professionally gave us excellent advice regarding our kitchen renovation. It was a difficult assignment as we requested guidance in selecting a countertop, sink, etc., that would work well with the existing backsplash and ceramic floor tiles. She quickly guided us toward quartz and even returned with samples to choose from. Her artistic eye for color and materials, as well as her knowledge of available products, is outstanding. We highly recommend her to design and plan your next renovation.”

If you’re planning a kitchen remodel or just exploring countertop options, quartz countertops remain one of the best choices in 2025—for both style and performance. Quartz offers the luxurious look of natural stone with significantly greater durability. These engineered surfaces are scratch-resistant, stain-resistant, and moisture-resistant, making them a practical solution for high-traffic kitchens.
Often chosen as a more durable alternative to marble, quartz surfaces offer a wide range of colours and veining patterns that mimic the elegance of stone while being easier to care for. Because quartz is non-porous, it naturally resists bacteria growth—making it a hygienic and low-maintenance choice for busy families.
Low Maintenance, High Performance
Unlike wood or marble, quartz countertops do not require regular sealing. This not only saves time but also reduces long-term maintenance costs. The low upkeep and longevity of quartz make it an ideal option for homeowners who want lasting beauty without the hassle.
Cost and Installation Considerations
While quartz countertops are generally more affordable than marble, they do come at a higher cost than wood or laminate surfaces. One key consideration is that quartz is a heavy material and requires professional installation to prevent cracking or improper fitting. In contrast, wood countertops are lighter and can often be installed as a DIY project, which can reduce upfront labor costs.
However, when it comes to long-term value, quartz stands out. Its exceptional durability, low maintenance, and modern aesthetic contribute to a higher return on investment, especially if you plan to sell your home. These qualities make quartz one of the most sought-after kitchen countertop materials on the market today.
Affordable Kitchen Renovation Options
If your renovation plans involve updating materials while keeping the original kitchen layout and plumbing in place, you’re looking at one of the most cost-effective remodeling options. Cosmetic renovations—such as replacing your kitchen countertops—can dramatically transform your space without the expense of a full renovation.
Among the most affordable countertop materials, wood and quartz stand out for their blend of style, function, and value. Whether you’re going for a warm, rustic feel or a sleek, modern look, these materials offer excellent choices for a range of styles and affordability.
If you need help selecting countertops, cabinets, flooring, or backsplash that align with your preferred colour scheme and design style, I’m here to guide you through every step. And if your vision involves a more extensive renovation—such as reconfiguring your layout or removing walls to open up your kitchen into another room—we can help with that too. From minor updates to major transformations, we offer solutions tailored to your goals and space.

Minimalism has gained popularity for a number of reasons. The minimalist interior design style is more than just a design choice. It is a lifestyle that invites peace into your everyday life. By transforming your spaces into serene sanctuaries, minimalism offers a much-needed refuge from the chaos of our busy and stressful world. Plus, it’s an affordable approach, making it accessible for everyone, regardless of budget. Join the growing number of people who have embraced the style and discover the profound joy of living in a clutter-free, serene home!
The allure of minimalism lies in its ability to transform your space into a calming retreat, providing much-needed relief after a hectic day at work. This scenario I will share with you next will help you see what I mean. Imagine coming home after a long, hectic, exhausting day at work and stepping into a sanctuary that exudes peace and serenity. The minimalist interior design style transforms your home into such a haven where calmness reigns and relaxation flourishes.
By embracing minimalism, you can transform your living space into a serene oasis that soothes your mind and reduces everyday stress. An uncluttered environment with simple furnishings fosters mental clarity and peace, which is why homeowners are turning to this design style and lifestyle choice.
Additionally, the furniture and accessories used in this style are often straightforward to manufacture, making them less expensive. Consequently, purchasing minimalist items are more affordable. Therefore, minimalist design is a smart option in today’s challenging economic climate. Embracing minimalism means choosing a lifestyle prioritizing serenity without straining your finances. Read on to find out how another characteristic of this style helps to bring this style into your space.
Element of Minimalist Design#2: Clean-Lined Furniture and Tips
One of the defining characteristics of minimalism is the intentional choice of furniture and decor that showcase clean-lined, geometric shapes—think circles, rectangles, and squares. By opting for pieces with sleek lines and minimal ornamentation, you embrace a minimalist aesthetic. Furthermore, you transform your living space into a serene sanctuary. Consequently, this furniture and decor contribute to a calm and relaxing environment at home, especially after a long day at work. Consider the following tip to achieve this.
Tip#1: How to Incorporate Clean-Lined Furniture
Select furniture that resembles the pieces in the photo above. For instance, pick a piece similar to the square side table, which features straight lines and is unadorned. The furniture’s strong, clean lines create bold statements that emphasize the essential beauty of each piece. Most of the furniture in the photo have straight, clean lines, including the legs of the coffee table. The leg design creates visual interest while maintaining a straight-lined and sculptural appearance. Another important characteristic of this design is the neutral colour scheme. The walls, furniture and accessories have this neutral colour scheme.

Minimalist Design Style and Clean-Lined Decor Tips
Let’s turn our attention to the types of accessories that complement your minimalist interior space. It’s vital to minimize visual clutter on the accessories so that you achieve a truly serene and calming atmosphere. So, the right accessories are essential when crafting a stunning minimalist space.
Tip#2: How to Incorporate Clean-Lined Accessories
My advice is to ensure that- like the furniture- these accessories feature clean lines—either straight or curved—and avoid any ornamentation. Notice how the white ceramic knot and simple vases exemplify this approach. Their smooth curves and unadorned surfaces enhance the overall aesthetic and embody the essence of minimalist design.
The three vases captivate as stunning individual sculptures, showcasing sleek, curved lines free from embellishments. Their elegance shines through the absence of embellishments, allowing their unique shapes to take center stage. The combination of clean lines and lack of visual clutter on the vases contributes to an overall minimalist aesthetic. These pieces embody a true minimalist design.

The owners of this condo wanted to lighten and brighten their dark east-facing living room. The first photo below is the before photo of the living room. And an after photo is below it. With so many white accessories including the rug and the table lamps on the console which you cannot see, the room looks lighter and brighter.
They also voiced a desire to go with the minimalist interior design and mentioned during the consultation they wanted a white and gold /yellow colour scheme. I suggested furniture and a rug that would work with their voiced preferences. These are photos that were taken during the styling day. The husband like the neutral white and gold colour scheme. The wife was leaning toward a red colour scheme for various reasons so it was styled both ways. You can see the two colour schemes in the collage below.
