Tips yo make small apartments feel larger

In Ethiopia, most condominiums and apartments have very small and limited spaces, making it hard to find a space and place for everything.

Decorating a small apartment essentially means finding the balance between cozy and stylish.

People with small apartments don’t think they can style or decorate their homes due to the small space.?

Although it doesn’t seem like it, decorating a small apartment is possible, and you can also make it look fancy and elegant according to your preference.

Some people don’t consider decorating small apartments because they think it would cost them a lot of money, but there are many cost-friendly ways you could decorate your apartment.??

Live Ethio has listed some tips to help you make your small apartments look bigger.?

1. Hanging curtains

Choosing long curtains and hanging them above your window would give the illusion of height and more space within the room.

If your apartment seems dim, it’s preferable to have lightweight curtains so that enough light can come through. Small apartments look bigger with more natural light.

This, in turn, can help you save money on electricity bills, so it’s better to rent or purchase apartments with windows facing the sun during the day. Especially in Ethiopia, where there are 13 months of sunshine!

2. Avoid clutter

Removing clutter around your apartment is really important when you’re working on decorating to make it look bigger.

Removing items that are not essential and finding a place for the items you have lying around can make a huge difference.

When living in a small apartment, it is really essential to optimize your storage so that it doesn’t become a visual distraction. Shelves and cabinets are a great way to minimize clutter in your apartment.

3. Furniture placing?

Instead of dark furniture that looks bulky, you could purchase furniture that has lighter-shaded colors.

Modern décor, which has interior designs that are aesthetic, has furniture that is lower to the floor or ground, which would create more space around your apartment.?

These days, most people are looking for simple furniture with neutral colors. Such furniture easily gives your apartment elegance and makes the rooms’ exciting components look and feel more unified.?

For example, when purchasing furniture, instead of using furniture or items that are too colorful, you could use neutral colors to give your apartment that simple yet elegant interior, which in turn would make your apartment space feel bigger.?

4. Using multi-purpose furniture and hidden storage?

Using multi-purpose furniture has become popular in homes today as it offers flexibility when decorating your dream house.

Multiple uses can be experienced through one piece of furniture within a single space, as it maximizes space and storage.

These techniques are now being highly used in Ethiopia; most people are now purchasing multi-purpose items that save on costs and are easy to maintain.

Every day, there are great new inventions when it comes to furniture that is perfect for a small apartment, like a chair that could turn into a table and multiple chairs.

Apartments with hidden storage are perfect if you have a lot of equipment but don’t want to leave it all around.?
