The small size of housing becomes a problem for owners of a small apartment: where and what to place in such a limited area? However, with the right approach, you can profitably use a small volume, first of all, you do not need to get hung up on a small space. It is especially important that guests concentrate their attention on something else, for example, on products made of natural stone that harmoniously fit into the interior.

It is better to purchase furniture in catchy colors, for example, a dark green sofa with bright red pillows against the backdrop of pastel-colored walls. Bright colors will attract the eye of the audience, respectively, less attention will be focused on the room itself.

It is possible to use the surface of the window sills instead of a writing or kitchen table, it is better not to use massive curtains or curtains. It is much more convenient to install blinds in order to save space, and shortened curtains or shutters are also the best option. The use of mirrors and large mirror surfaces is also preferable in a small apartment: this way you can increase the space due to the visual effect, especially if you install lighting fixtures. Of course, in the presence of a large window, daylight is also beneficial, only the rooms are not always arranged accordingly. Along with mirrors, transparent decorative elements are used, for example, shelves.

Large furniture requires a lot of space, and ordinary cabinets, bedside tables and armchairs will not work for a “small size”. In such conditions, it is better to use transformable and built-in furniture, for example, bedside tables built into a chest of drawers and adapted to accommodate small items in them. It is better to take a folding table, the tabletop can be attached to the cabinet, it will recline if necessary. The bed also needs to be chosen as a team: having folded it, you can play sports or do the cleaning. There are many options for mobile lockers, a whole false wall can be assembled from them. This step is taken in order to unload the rest of the space of the apartment.

What is better not to use in a small apartment? It is necessary to refrain from any items that unnecessarily burden the environment. Do not use overall decor, do not raise the floor. A suspended ceiling element also does not fit well into a limited space, and the visual effect of the height of the ceiling can be achieved by using wallpaper with a vertical pattern, although it makes sense to simply paint the walls in beige or cover them with neutral-colored decorative plaster. A loggia or a fairly spacious balcony can be turned into a separate lounge.
