Simple Spaces publishes home-design inspiration, decorating guidance, small-space solutions, gardening ideas, and planning tools.
Our goal is to help readers make informed aesthetic decisions while clearly separating inspiration from technical, legal, safety, medical, or professional advice.
Human Editorial Responsibility
A human editor reviews every article before publication.
The review covers the article’s purpose, originality, structure, clarity, images, factual statements, disclosures, and links.
The named author and editorial team remain responsible for the final published page, including material produced with software or AI assistance.
Research and Sources
Aesthetic opinions are identified as editorial judgment.
Claims involving measurements, statistics, research, product performance, material properties, safety, health, building requirements, or environmental effects are checked against an appropriate source when verification is needed.
We prefer original research, government agencies, recognized standards bodies, manufacturer documentation, universities, and qualified subject-matter sources.
Links are placed close to the claim they support.
A citation does not replace our own analysis, and a source is not treated as proof of personal testing.
First-hand Experience and Product Claims
When we discover a material error, we correct it promptly.
For a change that affects the article’s conclusion or safety guidance, we add a dated correction note explaining what changed.
Readers can request a review by emailing info@simplespaces.net with the page URL and the statement in question.
We state plainly when an author has personally used, installed, visited, measured, or tested something.
We do not imply hands-on experience when an article is based on research or visual analysis.
Product recommendations disclose relevant commercial relationships and explain the basis for the recommendation.
Safety and technical limits
Design inspiration is not a substitute for the instructions, listing, or safety documentation for a specific product.
Building codes and structural, electrical, plumbing, gas, fire-safety, ventilation, accessibility, and permitting requirements vary by product and location.
Readers should follow current manufacturer instructions and applicable local requirements and use qualified professionals for work that requires them.
AI-assisted Work
Simple Spaces may use AI tools for research organization, brainstorming, drafting assistance, editing, or illustrative design concepts.
AI does not replace human judgment or accountability.
We do not knowingly use AI to fabricate quotations, research, credentials, sources, product testing, completed projects, or personal experience.
When AI is used extensively in an article or image, we disclose that use in language readers can understand.
AI-assisted design images are labeled as illustrative concepts and are not presented as photographs of completed or personally tested spaces unless expressly stated.
Commercial independence
Advertising, affiliate links, free products, sponsorships, and other commercial relationships do not purchase a favorable conclusion.
We disclose material relationships close to the relevant recommendation or link.
Sponsored content is labeled as sponsored.
