Decor: Transforming Your Small Space into a Home

Living large and lavish is one feat on the agenda for most people. But for many, this is a goal that may lie somewhere far along the horizon. So what to do when the pint-sized pad you have isn’t the pint house suite you long for? Accessorize! By dressing it up with these pointers, you can utilize every square inch to its maximum potential, turning your lack luster, spatially challenged single into a classy domain.

Accentuate your assets. This concept can be applicable and useful in essentially all situations. Highlight those key qualities your home does have by making them the focal point of the room. Whether it’s a cool vintage fireplace or mesh wall of your own design, a room must have a place that invites and anchors the eye to its surroundings.

Decorate in the economical way by searching out small ways to add richness and variety to your home. Mibo’s Tile Tattoos and Flor’s Parallel Reality Tile both give the look of customization to any dining room, kitchen or restroom and are under $20. But if you are going to splurge, lamps would be a key item to do so as they refine and instantly add class to an entire area.

Lastly, when deciding on the type of furniture to buy, go for an assorted collection of pieces rather than a standard matching set. By doing this, your room becomes lively as each piece adds variety, spacial difference and offers something new to look at.
