All of us have at some point moved into a small studio apartment. So small that less seemed way more. You must have even considered giving away some of your furniture just so you have more leg space in front of your sofa. I can truly identify with the situation. My first apartment was just 200 square feet and it was hell of a job to preserve space while having all that you need in a home. So how to do it? It's all creative thinking. Here are some amazing ideas that'll surely solve your little studio problems: Go for innovative furniture design I strolled and scrolled through various furniture stores till I came across Iconic Furniture, a fairly known furniture store in Mississauga and ordered a custom accent chair. I did other rounds for foldable furniture as well. A chair that doubles up as a recliner, small accent chairs for sofa, and a recliner that doubled up as a bed were some of the ideas that worked for me. I even came across a wonderful high/low chair that is convertible from a high to low chair by just turning it upside down. Now that's creative. Go Vertical With a small apartment as mine, there is a limited scope of horizontal expansion. So where you go from there? I say we go up. Vertical bookshelves, high kitchen cabinets are some of the additions you can make to incorporate your stuff. Another addition you'll need with this is a step ladder. Or date a tall guy. Lighter Interiors It's a fact that painting inner walls with light colors such as white, off white of lighter shades of pink or blue will make your apartment appear larger than it is. It's an illusion effect but it works wonders in designing overall ambience your home. Natural light when falls on these walls brighten up your home due to more reflection and less absorption of radiation. In summers, your home will be cooler.All Rights Reserved
