Mistakes that should be avoided when decorating small spaces
When decorating a small space, you need to be very selective about certain things. You should prefer minimalism over maximize.
The value of space must
be understood and used creatively.
Here are some mistakes
to avoid when decorating a small space, as well as some ideas for making
efficient use of space.
Mistake # 1: Space
It will be more
convenient for you to accept the fact that your space is limited.
If there is no space
for a side table in your room, omitting one of the two will make your space
look more unbalanced and visually asymmetrical.
To deal with this,
consider purchasing a stool that can be used for magazines, remote controls,
and lamp rests.
Flat screens should be
preferred over media cabinets.
Instead of a full-size
desk, consider a vanity or a narrow console.
Mistake # 2: Natural light
The best way to
visually expand a space is to provide as much natural light as possible.
One option is to use
the mirror wisely. The second is to use a smooth screen to filter instead of blocking
light.
The colors on the walls
and the colors of the furniture should be light and reflective, brightening the
overall mood.
Mistake # 3: Waste of valuable
space
Start experimenting in
your space and be creative using it efficiently.
Use the space above the
window frame and include cupboards from floor to ceiling. Built-in seating is a
great option for small spaces.
Placing the sofa in
front of the bookcase allows for unexpected, hidden storage on the back shelf.
Instead of placing
utensils on the counter, hang them under an overhead cabinet in a small
kitchen.
This allows you to hide
less attractive utensils in the lower cabinets and drawers.
If you have a small
bathroom, consider hanging cabinets instead of art toilets to maximize your
confined space.
Mistake # 4: Disrupting the visual
flow
If you have small rooms
next to each other, combine them using the same color palette, the same
materials, and the same style.
This will make the whole
space flow more smoothly.
The rooms will serve as
extensions to each other by adding length to your space.
Mistake # 5: Crowding of surfaces
It is important to
evaluate your items and make efficient use of your space because the extra
storage will always be limited.
So keep things
meaningful and efficient.
Mirrors visually double
the space created by reflection, so it is beneficial to place mirrors where
they are used throughout the day.
Mirrors are best used
almost anywhere, including the dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.
Mistake # 6: Be very careful
Increase the space to
your liking; If you like minimalism, avoid clutter and decorate your home with
simple patterns.
However, if you like to
enlarge, avoid adding oversized furniture and instead include oversized
patterns and brightly colored accents to enhance your space.
Focal points can be
created by using brightly colored wallpaper to match the mood of the room or by
using bright draperies hung near the ceiling to distract the viewer from the
lack of space.
