For small-sized families, they always want to find more space at home and look neat, so they need more storage options, so minimalism is a good way to create more space and spend less money.
The following seven methods can transform your house with less budget, which will make you feel bigger, brighter and better!
1. Make the wall brighter
Darker rooms absorb light instead of reflecting it. Therefore, a layer of fresh light or white paint can create miracles for small spaces, and painting the walls doesn’t cost much.
If the color of the room needs to be updated, please try to choose warm white, but don’t mix too much yellow. The refreshing white tone can immediately create a more spacious feeling.
Don’t worry about painting a special wall, it can create extra depth for the room.
If the budget allows, the light-colored ground will also give people the feeling of more space.
2. Throw away unused items.
You need to look at your space critically, be honest with what you can throw away, and make more room for important things.
As long as the places with countertops (bathroom, kitchen, entrance) are kept clean, these areas will naturally make people feel more space.
3. Store items reasonably
Think about all the things carefully used in the home, such as hair dryers, beauty products, some foods and cleaning products in the cupboard, etc. Put them away and don’t leave them outside, otherwise it will only cause a messy feeling.
Try to vacuum pack some clothes and big coats in the wardrobe, and put away the shoes you don’t wear, which can make some space.
Use the top of the wardrobe to store some items, just buy a footstool and put it outside, which is also a good way to make the wardrobe look more spacious.
If you have storage space under the bed, you can wisely choose to store items with clumsy shapes, such as umbrellas.
Consider how to use furniture to store things, such as a coffee table with a liftable top to store blankets, a long soft stool at the end of the bed to store clothes, and a multi-layer coffee table to put magazines under it. These are convenient ways to deal with messy things.
4, the effect of carpet
Does the color of the carpet affect the overall style? Then invest in neutral carpets to match your furniture.
A rug under the coffee table will make the living room look smaller. However, a large carpet placed under the sofa will open the space. Please make sure that at least two front legs of the sofa are placed on the carpet.
Another good suggestion to create spacious space is to put the sofa away from the wall and make sure it is placed as an independent object.
5. Side table and coffee table
If your living room can’t accommodate a large coffee table, try a small side table at the end of the sofa, which will provide you with more room for activities.
6. Choose a limited variety of colors
Bright and busy colors in any space will make the area crowded and make it look smaller than it really is.
Try to establish a neutral basic style, such as white or gray, and choose one or two well-coordinated characteristic colors.
Simply changing the color of a room will have a great influence on the feeling of its area.
7. The display of furniture is very important.
Look at your living room. Are there some smaller pieces of furniture and more than one recliner?
