Use these 10 tips to make your tiny studio apartment look like a spacious 1-bedroom.
1. Choose a statement furniture piece
One large piece of furniture which stands out is better than 5 scattered couches, especially if you live in a studio.
2. Use light colors on the walls and the floor
No matter how tempting it is to go bright pink or deep blue, try to stick to pale colors such as white, cream and pale grays to keep the room light and airy.
3. Create the illusion of spaciousness by pulling furniture away from the wall
Move the furniture a few centimeters away from the wall to make the room look less cluttered and crammy.
4. Install hidden storage spaces
Make use of creative storage spaces to store your unwanted possessions.
5. Use large decoration pieces
Using many small decorative pieces will make the room look cluttered and messy, especially if it’s small. Go for large vases and funky centrepieces.
6. Use stripes and geometric shapes to elongate the space
Vertical stripes make everything appear taller and longer. Use them on your walls to add to your apartment’s height.
7. Use statement art pieces
Make your apartment appear “creatively crammed” with art pieces.
8. Leave your windows bare
Giving your eyes a chance to explore the outside landscape gives an illusion of depth and space.
9. Mirrors
Mirrors give the room wider dimensions, thus making it look more spacious.
