Decorating a small space like a small flat or a studio flat is tricky task.How to make the most out of it, utilize the maximum space without disturbing interior ethics are some of the few aspects of it.
Here I am sharing some useful tips.
Utility Furniture
Keep furnitures with maximum drawers, small cupboards , shelves etc.This will utilize a small place well and also giving lot of storage.
Multi Functional Furniture
Try to keep furniture which has various uses like breakfast table cum ironing table cum kitchen counter , dinning table cum office table, sofa cum beds etc. This acquires less space and give different uses.Apt for studio apartments.
Use of light hues
Color in interiors is very important. Right color selection means 50% job done.In compact spaces dark shades should never be used and even if using any dark shade , than it should only be restricted to one wall or one furniture piece.
Use of light / pastel hues makes the appearance of space bigger and cleaner.Light color on walls is soothing and pleasant to the eyes.
No heavy furniture
Most common mistake done by lot of people is that they buy heavy upholstered furniture.In a small space if , you are keeping a heavy fabric upholstered sofa than centre table , dinning table should be sleek and light. Furniture polish also make a huge difference.A dark walnut Almirah and a light beige colored almirah can make or break the look of a small room.
Light
The most important part of interior design.Flow of light should be continuous ( doesn't break in between) a dark , dull room makes a person falls sick and a room with natural lighting , ventilation is healthy foR body , mind and soul.If windowws can't be placed than at least lighting fixtures should be placed in a way, that they create illusion of natural lighting.
Colors
As told earlier color is the main part of any place's interior. Be it paint on walls , furnishings even accessories , right color selection plays a significant role.Lighter hues for small and compact places are always advisable.
