SMALL APARTMENT DECORATING IDEAS AND TRICKS...

When you live in a small space, fitting in everything you need is difficult. So trying to fit everything in and making it look cute is an even bigger challenge. But that's also what makes small space design so much fun.  These small space design ideas will make it feel so much larger.

~USE OF COLOUR~


✓The way you introduce colour in your rooms has a huge impact when you’re coming up with small apartment decorating ideas. Dark colors can close off areas but when incorporated carefully, they can make areas appear wider than they are.

✓Using light colors can make areas appear larger and more expansive, but you need to be careful and ensure the space doesn’t end up looking too clinical while remembering that smaller spaces often have dirtier looking walls as things rub against them more commonly.

~HANG CURTAINS HIGHER~

✓One of our decorators was quick to point out that his first apartment was a small studio with a wall of four-foot windows as a major focal point and pretty much nothing else.

✓To make the most of his small house interior, he thought outside of the box and installed dramatic floor to ceiling sheer curtains to make the space feel instantly larger and more impressive.

~BRING IN A SETTEE~

✓Perfect for any small house interior, a settee or bench is a must when looking to entertain elegantly without having to bring in a heavy, overstuffed sofa that’s width will eat up floor space and leave you with little room for anything else.

✓Plus, they are much less expensive than a traditional sofa, are easier to move around, and are much more unique, too.

~GET A FOLDING WALL TABLE OR DESK~

✓For more floor space, make the most of small apartment ideas with collapsable wall-mounted tables and desks, or tables that you can fold and easily store.

As well as you can get a wall desk .You have no room for an office? Think again. A mounted wall desk takes up way less room-and you can even mount shelves above it for even more storage space.

This is perfect anytime you need more floor space for extra guests, games, or to keep items out of site that you do not use daily.

~LET THE LIGHT POUR IN~

✓If your living room has access to a ton of natural light, don't block it out with dark curtains. 

✓Let it pour in to make the space feel more airy and open. Even if you don't have large windows and tons of sunlight, choose lighter shades to maximize the light you do have.


~CHOOSE A LARGE RUG~

✓Go with large rug to make the room appear more expansive and expensive. Stick with a larger rug as a petite one can help to make the room appear smaller than it really is.
✓Unlike smaller rugs, the large size doesn't visually break up the floor. 
✓This can also help anchor the space and give you a good staple piece to design the rest of the room around.
 

~ADD OTTOMANS~

Small Living Room Styling Ideas

✓Use ottomans in place of a traditional coffee table to make better use of your space (because a tiny house means your living room often does double or triple duty when people come over). 

✓You can top them with a tray to hold flowers and books, or use as extra seating. Then when it's family time, they become footrests.
