What are your personal rules for decorating?
I'm especially curious about arbitrary little rules that don't serve a practical in-game function, but feel free to share those that do!
Like, for some reason, I always think about what different things would smell like. Because of this, I don't put trash cans too close to seating, and I placed my Titan arum at the back of my island, far from any buildings :p
I also tend not to put things that don't seem waterproof next to the water, especially electronics and stuff made of paper. Similarly, I try to leave space between fire and flammables.
Obviously, these things don't have any actual consequences. I just think, when I'm trying to make a place feel lived-in, it helps to consider what might occur to me in a real, physical space.
Do you have anything like that? Any particular logic or aesthetic preference behind it, or just vibes?
