3 Interior Design Tips for Small Spaces
Small spaces in your home can be used in a variety of ways. In order to get the most out of the space, it's best to be strategic. However, that doesn't mean the space cannot be enjoyable and beautiful. In fact, when you use the right design tools for a small space, it can be enjoyed in a much more refined and comfortable manner. Here are some tips we would like to offer on how to make the most out of your small space.
Decide how you're going to use the space
When you have a small space, it can be easy to clutter it with items that are in the wrong place. In order to avoid this design mistake, it is important to designate a purpose for the space. Doing so will allow you to determine how you will furnish and decorate the room or space. Also, you'll be able to gain better control of what items go where.
Storage is key
As mentioned earlier, clutter can be problematic and can be quite noticeable in a small space. Use every opportunity possible to have storage spaces available. It's also a good idea to choose furniture items that have a double function. Beds with drawers, tables that can expand, and ottomans are all great choices for small spaces. These types of items can offer so much in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and space. Your choice of items will depend on how you designate the space.
Use colour wisely
Colour choices can have an impact on the appearance of a small space. It's best to go with lighter hues on your walls. You can always use a bright and bold colour as an accent can offer a nice pop of colour. However, using darker colours can make the room appear even smaller.
