The ONE Design Principle You Need for a Stunning HOME

You can make the biggest difference in your home using this ONE interior design principle! Our eye naturally loves to see symmetry when we walk into a space and in this video, I'm teaching you how to pull together a stunning room using symmetry! You can see I've used symmetry in all of my 30 years of luxury home design, but you can implement it in your home today!
Symmetry is where you create a focal point with matching or equal elements on either side.

Before I press play. Im going to say the magic word is SYMMETRY

[@user-wu5hd7sb8y]

You are the true designer.. some of if these others on here don't have your knowledge and expertise. And your personality is fun without being overdone.

[@maureenjurmann1916]

I have such an appreciation for symmetry since following you, Rebecca. It is the secret to these beautiful room designs you have created. I also have more of an awareness of how larger items in a home (as long as its balanced) make far more of a statement than do many small items. This is another piece I picked up from your videos. You are not into a busy look but a serene look to a space. It makes such a difference and gives a far more high end look to a home. Please continue to instruct us in your design process. You make it fun, as well! Take care.

[@gtaylor5053]

Rebecca, you are the master of symmetry! I could listen to you explain and illustrate this principle all day. As a member of your Design Sessions over these last two years, you have helped me improve my decor so much and your teaching me about symmetry has made the most difference. I am so grateful for what you do for us and send you my best wishes :)

[@OpalJourney]

Even Rebecca’s sleeves and earrings carry symmetries…with each other! Love it 😍

[@yumnasejal1433]

I'm watching ur videos in Afghanistan .ur my inspiration I want to be like u one day

[@1081rohitsingh]

Symmetrical designs and layouts are pleasing to the eyes as they create a balance. Just imagine how our faces and bodies would look if they were asymmetrical. I love symmetry ❤

[@adam4025]

Hi Rebecca ! I use your symmetry lesson for my living room window curtains! My husband complained about why I wanted curtains too high and I said I learned from Rebbecca to hang curtains higher to make room bigger and create a wow effect. we have a small and big window in the living room and I did them similar heights and now look fabulous. Whoever visits my home says WOOOOW right way ! Thank you for teaching us !! 🤩🤩

[@jack-ku9yh]

❤ Love your ability to create symmetry even when there is an irregular non symmetrical space i.e. one window - recreate another on the other side with a mirror and window dressings - brilliant Becky 😊

[@marysmith861]

Symmetry is everything in decorating. Thank you for being the best teacher, Rebecca.

[@KimberlyKelly2000]

Rebecca! Your home is so beautiful, I think you should turn your office into a dressing room!! You could use the desk as a display for jewelry and mirror for face touch ups. 🎉🎉🎉

[@lindab8397]

Can’t get enough of these🇬🇧 videos 👍

[@adstix]

Whenever I hear symmetry, my mind immediately goes to the magnificent palaces of Europe with their mathematically ornate gardens! Artisans and artists of the baroque era had a deep sense of symmetry oozing through their DNA!

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

You’re also using the art concept of triangular placement, as in the triangle created by using a wider cabinet than the television. I like these design principle videos.

[@americusgill403]

You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you so much for all the time you put into teaching us how to beautify our homes that God has blessed us with. May the Lord continue to bless you, Rebecca !!

[@writingtutor7317]

I had the same issue in my room with only one window next to the bed. Ugh!! But I took your great suggestion and installed a mirror the same size as the window. Then I added window pane tape to both windows to create the perfect symmetry and installed a drapery panel to each. Love the look! I'm learning so much from all your tutorials!! Thanks Rebecca! From one of your many fans in San Diego!!!

[@ElainePetrakisMidnightCrafter]

Rebecca, you look so fantastic! That outfit is adorable too! Thanks for all the great tips. 😊

[@gingerotto1713]

I absolutely agree with symmetry being so pleasing to the eye and an integral part of decorating. What you did with the condo, which had the foyer hall, was absolutely brilliant! You are absolutely amazing in every single project you have ever done (that I have seen).

[@user-wu5hd7sb8y]

I love that large black and white painting!

[@b.walker5955]

Symmetry BABY Symmetry! 🥰 Even your initials are symmetrical. RR That condo window solution has to be my most favorite creative idea of yours to date. Yes, there are bathroom tiles and fireplace tiles and even wall moldings you drove your carpenters mad over, but that window salvation is off the charts epic! XO

[@IkeaGoddess]

Rebecca, I love your window - mirror trick.

[@Rapunzelblk]

I love that white chair in your bedroom!

[@LULC0759]

The home you have now is stunning…I just love it.

[@CPARROWHEAD]

Love symmetry! You might just be the master of symmetry!

[@Hope-ot1xy]

Wow! I never thought about how symmetry is so important! Now I’m looking around my house I realize why there are some areas that look more peaceful and put together and that’s because those areas have symmetry and areas that don’t have symmetry seem cluttered to me. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video!

[@cgg2961]

You have such a God given talent....Genius. Love this teaching on symmetry.

[@cjhoward409]

I would love to see a room redone with yard sale finds/heirloom pieces/ repurposed things. 😉

[@suebresnahan8572]

Serveral years ago I learned about symmetry from you and it has been my #1 takeaway design skill! Thank you for this reminder as I start to decorate my new second home in Florida this fall!♥

[@childearth4039]

This video was so painstakingly prepared and inspired us with the transformative power of symmetry.

[@jeansunderland6115]

You are amazing! Love, love everything you do. Could watch you all day. You are one classy lady!

[@lesliehall1613]

Love your style and how you decorate clients home to their liking.Simply Fabulous!!

[@maritzagarcia3315]

I’m a new subscriber of your channel. For years my husband has been telling me that even my garden outside looks like soldiers. I do love symmetry and I think that is why I’m loving your work sooo much. I go to people’s house and I’m always fixing their crooked artwork😊 Thank you for showing us how to have more beautiful and peaceful homes 🥰🥰🥰

[@joanndelise7292]

I always learn fabulous decorating ideas from you. You should create a book with all your decorating through the years in clients homes and yours. I would absolutely buy it. Thanks for showing and explaining symmetry. Your the best.

[@lsipp2889]

One of the best design videos I have seen to date. I found myself looking around my home and patio and realized why some things just never looked "right." Thank you so much!!

[@user-rq5jo5eq6z]

I saw a few of your videos several years ago and lost track of you somehow. I’m so glad I came across you again🤗🙏🏻! Looking forward to more.

[@leonieharry2941]

I like the idea with the mirror mimiking a window :)

[@Audrey-km9in]

I, too, am a person who needs symmetry. My current home is anything but symmetrical & it is, when I allow myself to think about it, truly stressful. The dreaded corner fireplace, windows in the kitchen and family room that are misplaced and not at all following any rules of symmetry and odd/weird spaces. I have wasted so much time, energy, and brain cells in an attempt to fix, mask, rearrange, and work around the architectural errors. I appreciate you, Rebecca and the options you share. A glimmer of hope!

[@lucybraun8969]

In my living room, I have a window on one side of the fireplace, but not in the other side of it. To create symmetry, I put a long curtain rod over the window, the fireplace and over the blank wall with no window to create a faux window look with curtains hanging down in front of the wall. It really gave the living room more of a peaceful balance, and the edges of the curtains helped cover some flaws about the fireplace. On a budget, a gal's gotta do what a gal's gotta' do!

[@violet-green-eyes9574]

The idea of adding a mirror of a size of a window when having only one window is GENIUS !!! 👏👏👏 Just genius!!!

[@arthurgroff20]

videos like this have changed my life. My husband says I'm a mad woman . I decorate constantly when I watch your videos. Loved this one! Cant wait for Christmas.

[@yasminlatif1646]

Great video of the symmetry secret

[@lindab8397]

Rebecca since I have been watching your videos, each time I decorate a room now , I see it differently. ANYBODY can just paint and wallpaper, but it’s how it’s done WITH A BIT OF THOUGHT , to make it just that much better and not just ORDINARY . Making it stand out makes all the difference. It actually adds so much value to a property , and makes it easier to sell if it looks fabulous. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS ALL OF THEM 😁😁😁👍🇬🇧🌸🌺🌸🇬🇧

[@dalephilmanangel]

I will never get tired of Rebecca Interior Design the Pioneer of Interior design here in YT. Now there's a lot of designers that have the same niche but I am tired watching them sometimes, but Rebecca design will never go out of style.

[@nursing1999]

Love, love the balance, clean and elegance of your design!!

[@BonniEgypt2]

Oh my goodness!!! Who knew?! Something so simple. Every time I walk into one of my rooms now, the first thing I say is . . . does it have symmetry? I will never look at a room the same way again. Thank you Rebecca.

[@DunahiSaucedo]

❤❤❤🎉❤🎉❤SYMETRY is exactly why I loveeeee your videos renovations everything So much information 😅

[@giseliapereira5914]

I’m glad I found you all those years ago. It was your hair style that first caught my attention and it was your personality and incredible talent for decorating that has kept me as a fan all these years. You never disappoint.

[@sunithap9936]

I am a huge fan of yours Rebecca… I have been watching your KZbin videos since a very long time and would love to meet you sometime. My only thumbs down in all these years is the book display and now in this video, both the sofas at the sides of the TV screens. I agree that aesthetics is everything for a designer but what about practical TV watching and selecting the right book that you got to read?! TV room sofas have to face the TV, right? And the beautiful book covers that lure you ? I have seen in Oprah’s study ( don’t know whether they are real books ) where the books have been covered in white with a golden book title. May be she customised them ;)

[@barbaradzitko1826]

i love symmetry! A definite design principle for me.

[@bethanyjohnson1305]

🔊REBECCA!!! SO excited for this series! #1 Symmetry. I should have entered my small open concept living room but I'm not a member. I love how you explan & give examples! It makes so much sense

[@alex_la_fantastica1632]

[@MizJilly]

I love this! I have learned so much from you, Rebecca!

[@2cmrinhfx]

This has been so incredibly helpful, Thank you!!

[@melindaaldridge641]

I love symmetry, becuase it brings balance to my eyes. It's better said by being peaceful.

[@esabellali2356]

This is really inspiring! Brilliant! Thank you!

[@mshockey73]

The eye loves symmetry. No doubt about it. But the one thing that really gives me inner peace in my home is keeping it neat and tidy. It's much easier for me these days because my "littles" are grown. I wasn't as picky back then because your children are only small once and I wanted them to be happy and comfortable. But it is nice to have unexpected guests drop by now and not have to be embarassed about how my house looks.

[@lindamelz242]

Now I know!!! Great video and examples of solutions .

[@countrysister700]

My 1500 sf 1963 ranch is a roofed box built from blueprints drawn by guys who needed to develop lots quick and cheap. But your work shows me how to make silk purses out of sows ears.

[@estergarner3695]

Again wonderful video! Thank you Rebecca ❤️

[@ninatang7015]

I love that you incorporate symmetry in your design and creative ways to counter asymmetry.

[@Julianforourfamily]

What a great and informative video!

Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial on symmetry! I got SO much out of this! Thank you!!

[@dmarkey4360]

I love your videos and am always excited when a new one is up. I have learned so much. Soon we are going to build a ADU so this is awesome.🙏❤️

[@lorrainel2314]

Excellent, love your ideas to create symmetry especially adding a mirror with window treatments ❤

[@jillt.3195]

[@stelladrakou7361]

I LOVE symmetry!! Greetings from Cyprus!👍

[@centralWisconsin1]

Remember though, non-symmetry placement, when done right, will visually guide your eyes around a room, wall or area, thus walking you through all the little moments created along the way, in the carefully, purposefully crafted, non-symmetry layout.

[@kimacker8594]

Rebecca, you are good!!! You really know your stuff and can create an absolutely beautiful and inviting room/rooms!

[@dscox8568]

DSmember. Love the symmetry. This is a great addition to our design library and follows the principle of flow. Your home has has come together beautifully but still looks cozy. ❤
