Looking for decorating ideas for your small apartment? Does your studio lack charm and charisma? Free the soul of the decorator who is in you to personalize your interior.
In a small home, each space is important, each corner can be useful. Do not hesitate to take advantage of all the walls, behind doors, high storage, niches...
You can hang a mirror behind a door for example to save space in the bedroom. When you want to do your hair or check your makeup, your little mirror will be very important.
Use coat racks that attach above doors , it is very convenient and space-saving. They do not prevent the doors from closing because the small tabs provided slide into the slot.
Use the niches to store your papers or to give you a little decoration in your apartment. Integrate into the wall, this space is not counted in the m² but is very nice in a small apartment!
Be inventive to visualize your apartment in 3D! The available surface is not only on the ground. You can use tricks to take advantage of your full ceiling height.
The first idea is to use double-decker furniture , such as a bunk bed with a desk underneath. There are bed models 1 or 2 places on this principle. Thus, you save the place of the bed on the ground. (For a standard bed of 140 cm by 190 long, you gain 2.66 m², which is not negligible.)
Use high storage like cupboards above doors or in your toilet. It saves space on the rest of the housing.
For all the elements of comfort, think of the suspensions. Many unsuspecting things can suspend rather than be placed on the ground ! Hang your lamps, plants, television...
Push back your walls by artificially extending the space with a trompe l'oeil decor . Add to your small apartment a magnificent dining room, a panoramic view of New York, a beautiful terrace, a balcony on the sea... The choices are endless. Thanks to this decoration trick, you will have the illusion of living in a loft open to the world. With elements taking up those of your apartment, you will have the impression that the wallpaper extends your space:a glass roof, a parquet floor, polished concrete, plants similar to yours... for a total illusion.
