Condo Decorating

My Red Deer Condominium Deco Tips

Downsizing doesn’t always have to be compromising. It doesn’t always mean that one has to be low-key in style. Decorating a condo can be as interesting as doing up a 5-bedroom apartment. Those living in big cities often live in condos for lack of space and high rent.

When downsizing or simply choose a condo for some reason focus on what it lacks. Not every condo is built the same way. Hence it is best to take it on a case-by-case basis. One also needs to consider his/her lifestyle.

Planning is an important part of the designing. Go through each area of the home and look for what you need and think of how you can arrange things. We must remember that the space we occupy reflects our personality. It is therefore important to choose artifacts that serve the purpose while also not being just – functional. An entirely functional space isn’t very welcoming or appealing to the eye.

Here are some decorating tips I have used in my Red Deer condos.

1. To use limited space fully think of how you can convert the existing stuffs in and around the house. Overhead cabins, cupboards free space in the floor. A kitchen island can be converted into a dining table. Tools around the home can double up as sitting objects in the kitchen. One may change their lifestyle too like not inviting guests at home or entertaining them with takeouts. Opt for a small sink.

2. Add color to the interiors for an artistic effect. It will also make the space bright. Candles, throws, pillows in bright hues that match the season’s mood will add a punch.

3. To make small space seem large, use smaller furniture. Choose drapes that have small patterns.

4. Choose a focal point in the room. Make it the talking point. If there’s a fireplace, make it the focal point. Use a show-stopping glass mosaic that stretches right up to the ceiling. Use mirrors to make a small space seem large. A full length mirror that is also the door of the wardrobe can be an easy solution. Let it be of ceiling height. Place a mirror behind the bed to create an illusion of space.

5. When space is a constraint, use it wisely. Keep items not used daily behind louvred doors.

6. This might strike a little odd with some. Paint the ceiling black. This creates the impression of height.

7. If you have a small bathroom, make space in the bedroom for your jewelry, hair drying, etc.
