- Investing in functional furniture, like a shoe bench with storage, can significantly enhance the practicality of narrow entryways. - Exploring historical sites and architecture can provide unexpected design inspiration and a deeper appreciation for different styles and eras. - When choosing design software, consider user-friendly options like Icovia for floor planning, especially if you're primarily focusing on furniture layout rather than detailed architectural work.
