Final Design
A major part of designing a room is the design style itself. You may already have an exact idea or theme of what you want and how you want the room to feel, but in case you haven’t... here are a few timeless tips and trends that can point you in the right direction or at the very least add some variety to an already existing design.
Paint or wallpaper for the ceiling
A lot of people have the misconception that a ceiling must be white. Did you know that is not entirely necessary to create an open feeling? A light color or a sleek piece of wallpaper will cast a new shadow on the ceiling, adding the fresh feeling of an open space.
Light walls and floors
Where dark colors absorb light, soft colors reflect light, automatically making the space appear larger. Following the ceiling, it is logical to choose a light-colored wall and floor. There are a lot of shades and color shades that provide the right effect. Lovers of wood in the interior can already cheer, because the average parquet or wooden interior also fits perfectly with a light-colored style.
Think about furniture
Do you have a small living room? Try - in addition to tidying up - to opt for one sturdy seat, instead of several seats that take up too much space. To create an extra feeling of space, it is ideal not to immediately place the furniture against the wall. By being able to move the seat around, you also have the feeling that there is more space. If you are going on a furniture hunt, choose one key piece of furniture. Opting for a simple color that matches the rest of your interior or the walls is a good idea. Do you want more color in your interior? By choosing pillows in bright colors, you can create a contrast that also ensures openness.
Go for a transparent interior
A trend that we do not always dwell on is that of the transparent interior. A glass table or cabinets that you can see through give you an extra feeling of space, and looks very sophisticated!
Stripes are your best friend
One style that has blown over from fashion is the thought that stripes slim down. All the more reason to test it in your interior with a stripe pattern rug that will do the trick. Mind you, place the lined carpet in line with your room.
Mirrors do the job
Mirrors can work wonders in a many types of spaces. They reflect the light, which automatically makes your home look more spacious. Consider one oversized mirror on the wall that provides the most daylight. And yes, a large mirror is ideal for checking your outfit just before going out.
Get rid of curtains
If you want to make a living space look really big, you can immediately distance yourself from curtains or shutters. When you focus only on your windows, you create a feeling that your room automatically looks much bigger. The only downside to this is a reduction in privacy. This is a trade-off you will have to consider.
A little art
It may sound strange to some, but did you know that you can make your home feel more alive and spacious if you hang a touch of art? Artwork is an excellent way to expand your room as it provides a focal point in the room. Everything around it seems accentuated. Also ideal for adding a cozy touch to a bare, spacious wall.
