It is sometimes said that renovating together or going on holiday together is a real test of relationships. Furnishing a new home does not always run smoothly and is often a challenge. However, just because you both have different tastes doesn't mean you can't come to a compromise. These tips 4 will help you on your way.
Before you go to the furniture store together, it is important that you make a number of clear agreements. Go through the points that are important to you so that you are not faced with surprises. Try to figure out what style you want to date and look for commonalities. Create a mood board and prevent (unnecessary) discussions.
Do you both like a different color? Then make a compromise and paint your home in colors that are not too striking or outspoken. For example, does your partner want an interior with orange elements at all costs, but do you see this completely differently? Then choose a neutral color and incorporate a number of orange accents into your interior. You can easily replace these pieces after a while.

Although living together is a big step and choosing the right interior may keep you captivated for months, it is sometimes good to put this fact into perspective every now and then. If you keep discussing what your interior should look like, you can always remember that it won't stay the same forever and ever. Giving in every now and then will help you make decisions faster (and fortunately, these decisions aren't permanent).
