Maximizing the small space in your apartment.
Apartment living comes with many advantages, such as easy maintenance, flexibility, and convenience, to name a few, proving that bigger isn’t always better. Although apartment living can be compact, there are many ways to maximize the small spaces in your apartment, transforming them into functional, cozy, comfortable, practical, appealing, and welcoming living spaces. Continue reading for some helpful tips on enhancing your apartment living space.
Adding Mirrors
Mirrors often have a positive impact on the perception of a space. Adding mirrors to a room is commonly used to enhance and brighten a small space. Well-positioned mirrors transform a room with their reflective powers making the space appear brighter and larger. So, adding mirrors to varying areas in your apartment can significantly enhance the room’s space. Bathrooms, living rooms, and bedrooms are ideal places to add mirrors for creating a sense of largeness and openness.
Thinking Vertically
It is common for us only to consider our living space as a floor plan. However, it is also possible to utilize your wall to enhance your living space and increase storage. Choosing tall shelves that extend to the ceiling instead of shorter shelves and hanging items high on the wall draws the eye upwards, enhancing the appearance and storage of a room. Taking advantage of your wall and floor space goes a long way in making the most of a small area.
Zoning
Having zoned spaces in your apartment creates the appeal of a larger room, differentiating one area from another. Creating zones creates divisions between your living room, dining room, bedroom, and other living spaces within your apartment. Commonly used practices for creating a zoned space are dividing that space from the rest of the area with a large piece of furniture, rug, curtain, space dividers, or other decorative furniture pieces.
Organization
It is essential to maintain a clean and tidy apartment. Collecting your apartment, and having a place for everything, goes a long way in reducing clutter and enhancing the space of a room. You can’t make space if you don’t clear out the clutter. Staying organized ensures that excess clutter and junk won’t invade your living spaces, creating a mess. It’s recommended to use boxes, bins, dividers, shelving, and other storage tools to keep your apartment organized.
