Why break down walls, where to hide the office and howuse sunlight to the benefit of a small living room - in our article today A small living room is far from a death sentence and not at all a reason to turn the room into an inconvenient storage for a tiny sofa and TV. Look at the situation as an opportunity to show your creativity and create an unusual, bright space where it is pleasant to spend time with family and friends.
1. Breaking is not building
If you have the opportunity to combineseveral rooms, do it without regret. Even a bedroom can be combined with a living room without compromising functionality and privacy, but there will be a noticeable increase in air and light in both rooms.
2. The more, the better
One way to distract attention from sizespace — to diversify its content. For example, to introduce several textures, ornaments and shades into the interior. However, all this diversity must certainly be combined and represent a complete structure. Take a look at the photo below. This living room is very interesting to look at — the gaze constantly moves from one wall to another, from the table to the sofa, from the armchair to the curtains. At the same time, there are only a few shades and two types of ornament.
3. Not just for relaxation
Another way to add variety to your space ismake it multifunctional. This rule also applies to a small living room. In the living room, you can equip a dining room with a dining table in the form of a folding coffee table and folding chairs. You can even place a workspace in the living room. However, it is better to select furniture for it to match the background or use transformable furniture.
4. Emphasize your strengths
Your small living room probably has somethingsomething to admire - high ceilings, huge windows, quality wooden floors or some striking architectural features. Take the time to focus on these details. Choose low furniture to emphasize the height of the ceilings, and the historical value of the building can be reflected in the decoration - this is stucco, rosettes, cornices, etc.
5. Let there be light!
Light expands space - this is known to everyone.But few know how to use this resource. For example, incorrectly placed furniture can eventually force you to curtain such a treasure as a French window with thick blackouts. Do not allow such a development of events and thoroughly explore the space - figure out where you will be cozy at any time, and where you can comfortably settle down only with the arrival of the evening. White walls and furniture, of course, will give you a feeling of air and lightness, but if you are not sure that you are ready to live "on a cloud" from year to year, you can quite well choose a more diverse palette, just try to give preference to cold shades.
Our opinion:— Symmetry as one of the oldest techniques of decorating space in small rooms is especially relevant. A geometrically correct interior allows you to combine even a large amount of furniture, creating a structure that is pleasing to the eye. However, if your small living room is also a walk-through room, it is better to give preference to other methods of decorating.
