3 Interior Designers Reveal the One Thing They Would Change About Their Homes — And Why

Living room with abstract shape rug with fireplace and coffee table and wavy sofa.

I am a serial home rearranger. This has been the case since I was young — on several occasions during my teenage years at home, my parents would come into my bedroom to find it completely reconfigured: bed moved to the other side of the room, chest of drawers swapped to the opposite wall, and so on... This has continued to be the case throughout my adult life, only now there are more rooms for me to change (much to my husband's dismay).

Some of the changes I make are small and easy (and free or inexpensive), but then there are much more radical changes I would like to make that need to be put on a wishlist to revisit in some years to come (difficult, expensive ones — I do not like my kitchen...). Working in the interiors industry means being abreast of all the latest interior design trends, which often has me re-looking at my design and decorating choices of years gone by, with my personal taste seemingly changing as quickly as the trends.
