What Exactly Is Interior Decorating?

Interior decorating involves selecting, arranging, and styling the visual and functional elements within a living space. Unlike complete structural renovations, interior decorating focuses on the surfaces, furnishings, and aesthetic details.

The end product is a home that looks curated rather than cluttered.
