Our housing does not always correspond to our ideas about comfort: somewhere builders and designers are to blame, somewhere – we ourselves. But in any case, with the help of interior design techniques, you can bring the apartment in which we live as close as possible to the ideal one – in which we want to live!
Large rooms are the lot of few apartment owners, especially in some houses. However, if you apply several visual techniques, you can create the feeling of a larger room..
Owners of large and spacious apartments may object that «odnushku» how not to rebuild, all the same, the room will still have the same 15 square meters. But nevertheless, we believe that those residents of urban high-rise buildings who cannot yet buy a large apartment for themselves also have the right to comfort, which can be easily created even in a small apartment. So, we make the space of the room visually larger!
We remove the partitions
One of the most common ways to visually enlarge a space is to combine rooms into one by removing walls between them. First, it should be noted that all rooms are conventionally divided into two categories: guest and private.
Guest rooms include an entrance hall, a living room, a kitchen, a dining room – these are common rooms where the whole family gathers and receives guests. And it is these rooms that can, if desired, be combined. Today there is a practice when the kitchen is combined with the dining room or living room, the living room with the hallway, or even all these rooms are combined into one.
An interior design option is also possible, when, after removing the stationary walls, they are replaced with light sliding glass partitions: visually, the room will be large and spacious, but in fact, the rooms are separated by a glass door or screen..
Change the color scheme
The way to increase space by breaking down walls may not be suitable for everyone. But the visual increase in space by changing the color scheme of the room is almost a universal option. To make the room seem more spacious, paint the walls in a light color: pure white, light beige, cream will do, any light warm shades visually expand the space. This is due to the fact that light colors, as it were, accumulate light, making the room larger..
We remove unnecessary
Have you noticed how spacious empty rooms seem, even if their area is not at all large? Therefore, in order to visually increase the space of the room, try to remove all unnecessary bulky furniture, especially if it is of dark colors and massive structures..
