From Complete Beginner to Designing 7 Airbnbs - My Self-Taught Interior Design Journey

Hey!

I wanted to share my experience as someone who jumped into interior design with zero background. Over the past few years, I've designed 7 different Airbnb spaces, learning everything through trial and error, online resources, and a lot of Pinterest boards!

Some key things I've learned:

- Balancing aesthetics with practicality is crucial for rental spaces

- Lighting makes or breaks a space

- Investing in quality foundational pieces while being strategic with accent items

- How to create Instagram-worthy moments in each room

- The importance of creating cohesive themes throughout a space

Would anyone be interested in seeing before/after photos or hearing more specific tips about designing for short-term rentals? I'm happy to share my journey and what I've learned along the way!
