6 Tips For Decorating A Small Condo Apartment
How to Decorate a Small Condo Apartment
- Choose the Right Furniture Style – Some styles are bulkier than others. If you can, go for mid-century modern over traditional.
- Leave “Breathing Space” Between Pieces of Furniture – It’s tempting to slide the bookshelf right up against the sofa to gain a few inches. But, the cluttered look created by the lack of breathing space between furniture pieces isn’t worth the extra space.
- Choose Multi-Tasking Furniture – A coffee table is nice to have. In a small space, one with storage drawers below is even better. An ottoman doesn’t have to be just a foot rest. It can do double duty as a storage spot, and it can hit the triple as a place for people to sit when your gatherings get crowded. For bedroom furniture, choose a suite with storage under the bed.
- Check Out Removable Wallpaper – Yes, wallpaper is making a home décor comeback, but not if your landlord or condo rules don’t allow it. Removable wallpaper is a great way to make your condo feel more like it’s yours and keep your landlord happy.
- Turn it Into a Jungle – OK – maybe not quite a jungle – too many plants is like too much furniture. But greenery not only adds a beautiful, dynamic décor feature, but it also keeps the air in the condo clean and less stuffy.
- Have a Signature Piece – If you have enough budget to buy one, or if you want to keep a favourite piece, having one item that can be a focal point for the room will help set your décor apart from the rest. And make it look like you didn’t search the web for decorating tips!
