Edit, clean, then style—always in that order.

• Declutter: remove 50–70% of decor and small items
• Deep clean: windows, baseboards, appliances, vents
• Neutralize: light walls, minimal patterns, natural textures
• Define each space with a clear purpose (no “misc” rooms)

Light, symmetry, and conversation-friendly.

• Float furniture off walls; create a conversation area
• Use a rug to define space (front legs on the rug)
• Add balanced lighting: overhead + floor + table lamp
• Limit pillows (2–3 per sofa) in neutral tones + one texture
• Hide cords, remotes, and extra throws

Bright, clean, and functional.

• Clear counters to 3–5 items max (coffee maker, bowl of fruit)
• Stage sink: new sponge, clear soap bottle, no dishes
• Polish hardware, faucets, and stainless surfaces
• Add a fresh element (herbs, lemons, wooden board)

Hotel-level calm.

• Crisp light bedding; simple throw at foot
• Two pillows per person + one lumbar
• Nightstands: lamp + 1–2 items (book, plant)
• Closet ~50–60% full with matching hangers

Spa vibes without clutter.

• Fresh white towels; new shower curtain/liner

Make it glow.

Texture and scale carry the room.

• Hang art at ~57″ center height; scale to wall
• Limit palette to 2–3 colors + one accent

• Group decor in 1s or 3s—no tiny clusters

Stage for the camera.

Five-minute refresh routine.
