Live a Spacious Lifestyle in your Condo

Condo lifestyle is a past-paced form of comfort and ease. There are also two things that define condo living: location and size. But even though condominiums are smaller than usual apartments or townhouses, it doesn’t mean that you need to sacrifice comfort and convenience. Expert interior designers have these effective space-saving secrets on how to turn a small condo unit into a pleasurable abode:

Use flexible and double purpose furniture such as sofa that can turn into a bed at night or tables that transform into study desk.

Arrange your things and pieces of furniture, keep them tidy. Get rid of clutters because the more you arrange all of it, the more space your save.

Maximize the effect of natural light by using light colored paints and cool colors for your wall. Complement it with bright colors with your accessories or ornaments. The right color combination creates a soothing and spacious feel in your condo.

Keep your furniture and other things movable on the side in case you have guests or loved ones coming in. Be ready with ready with those side spaces.

Use monochromatic-colored furniture and other things like black rugs or darker shade carpet to have less cleaning maintenance. It would also create an illusion of clean and bigger space in your condo.

In case your condo unit has a window or window, make use of it, and emphasize with curtains to create a breathe-easy ambiance.

If you have large space in your ceiling, why not spend to build an upper deck or cabinets where you can store things such as books, clothes, DVDs and other stuff to expand space in your unit.

Try to open up your shelves or cabinets to create illusion of space. But don’t fill it up with things because it defeats your space illusion.

Mirrors always do the space trick. Use it wisely by placing it on corners of your condo unit where space is lacking or crowded with furniture or stuff.

To create a better spacious feel, try to avoid using divider walls or furniture if necessary so that the eyes can see the entirety of your condo.

Keep everything simple in your condo. Avoid using intricate moldings, raffles in your curtains or design with your furniture. Simplicity creates a spacious ambiance.

Another eye trick with your condo is to create or design an drop ceiling, hanging overhead display shelves or arranging your art pieces vertically.

Use horizontal wall panels or vertical floor planks that produce these lines in subtle way. But avoid over boarding on stripes that separate the walls or flooring pieces.

Avoid bulky-looking furniture, such as beds with thick headboards or sofa with wide armrests. For maximum effect, use sofas and armchairs with raised legs to provide an illusion of light and space.

You can try using few large bold pieces can work better than several small pieces. For instance, single large corner furniture can work better in small condo sizes, rather than a 2 to 3-piece sofa set. Keep the main furnishings in proportion with the room.
