Everyone knows that the separation of rooms, color or light, are aspects that play a decisive role when it comes to making a flat, despite its size, seem spacious and cozy at the same time. The images correspond to a project by Freehand Arquitectura, the Passive House Designers Boutique Architecture studio, which through its experience working on reforms, has compiled the tricks that work best and that are currently a trend for make small flats look bigger.
Avoid tall furniture and enhance natural light
The natural light It is without a doubt the great ally when it comes to decorating and organizing small spaces (it also works well in large ones). In a small house you have to give priority to the areas with more light and make them protagonists. For this it is convenient avoid putting tall furniture around them or with too much presence. The simpler the space around the entrance of light, the greater the amplitude it offers to the room.
Vivid colors in intense in small doses
The light tones, pastels and vanillas will provide the necessary warmth to a small room. If we prioritize these types of colors, in favor of darker ones we can play with them in the different rooms. Strategically painting the walls can be a real success in the overall vision of the house. If what we like are bright and cheerful colors, we can choose to decorate the rooms with fabrics, cushions, lamps or decorative elements with our favorite tones, to achieve a home with personality, but that still seems spacious and welcoming at the same time.
Take advantage of the corners
In small flats you have to take advantage of any space possible, we should not leave corners without taking advantage of or decorating, that is a luxury reserved for large houses. The stairwell, the high ceilings, the corners, are spaces that may seem difficult to integrate into the house, but the truth is that with the right vision they can become our favorite corners.
Less is more and everything is always in order
The order is essential and very necessary when we do not have the necessary meters to store all our belongings. If each of the elements of the house is in its rightful place, the rooms will continue to maintain harmony, but when the chaos takes over our floors, everything seems more small and crampedTherefore, it is necessary to keep order whenever possible.
Sliding doors and dividers with stained glass
The separation of rooms it is crucial to provide breadth. Bet for sliding doors can make us not only gain space, but also comfort, the same happens with traditional partitions, replace them with stained glass windows that give light and extension to your corners. If you love books and have a large collection, do not hesitate to use bookshelves to separate roomsthis last resource is undoubtedly more used by those who are passionate about reading.
Storage multifunctionality
One of the main problems of small flats is the difficulty in finding the place to store everything what we accumulate, therefore the ideal is that we give a double use to the furniture. For example, a dresser can be just as useful near the bed, it will serve as a dresser but also as a bedside table. A sofa is a success for the dreaded change of wardrobe, or to store shoes… the stairwell can serve as a shoe rack or a closet to store coats… The important thing is that we do not waste the opportunity to get the most out of it to the rooms.
