Living in a small apartment can be challenging, especially when it comes to designs to use and creating a functional living space.
However, with a few interior design tips, you can make the most of your space and turn your small apartment into a cosy and inviting home.
Here are some dos and don’ts to help you get started when choosing designs for your small apartment.
Do Light Colours
According to interior designer Aggrey Agbara, one of the easiest and most effective ways to make a small space feel larger is to use light colours on your walls and furniture.
Light colours such as white, beige, and pastels are more likely to create the illusion of more space, making your apartment feel brighter and more open.
Avoid dark colours as they can make a small apartment feel cramped and claustrophobic. Stick to lighter colours to create the illusion of more space and make your apartment feel more inviting.
Limit Furniture
While it can be tempting to fill your apartment with furniture, this can quickly make your space feel cluttered and overwhelming.
Choose smaller-scale furniture and limit the number of pieces you have in your apartment to avoid overcrowding.
The furniture should not seem like it is fighting for space.
For a small living room, Agbara recommends a two-seater L-shaped couch, instead of a three-seater, complemented by a small coffee table in the centre.
In your bedroom, choose a bed that will not eat up all the space. Everything should blend, and one piece of furniture should not dominate the space. Read More…
