25 Interior Design Tips for 2025 — Part 12 ✨ Let’s talk blank walls… because not every wall needs to be filled, but when it does, there’s definitely a right way to do it. 1. Go oversized A large statement piece is one of the easiest ways to make a room feel intentional. Over a bed, in an entryway, above a console — bigger almost always feels more elevated. Bonus points if you frame it with sconces. 2. Try a gallery wall (carefully) Gallery walls can work… but they need structure. Anchor them with furniture underneath and keep spacing tight. Loose spacing tends to feel accidental instead of collected. 3. Choose matted frames One of my favorite designer tricks. Matted frames instantly make artwork feel more custom and elevated. I especially love them over beds, beside nightstands, and in hallways. 4. Use mirrors strategically Mirrors are one of the best ways to add depth and reflect light in darker spaces. I love them in dining rooms and entryways. One place I usually skip? Above a bed. 5. Leave it blank This might be controversial… but sometimes the best thing you can do is nothing. A room doesn’t need every surface filled. If you’re forcing wall decor just to fill space, leave it empty until you find something you truly love. Save this for the next time you stare at a blank wall and have no idea what to do 🤍
