You may want to transform your space to make your space more welcoming. Here are some clever, well-known interior design tricks that will brighten and warm your space.
Paint smaller rooms in softer, lighter colors – Most small spaces have the tendency to look cramped. To give your room the illusion of space, avoid painting your walls a darker color and choose whites or light shades. You should also give your room sufficient natural light, to create more depth.
Use decorative mirrors to add instant light to your living space – For rooms that have limited windows and low levels of natural light add mirrors directly across windows. These mirrors will add light and dimension to your living space.
Mix it up – Your space should directly reflect your personality. Therefore, don’t be afraid to mix old family heirlooms with modern pieces. Just make sure that the antiques you receive or buy tell a story and co-exist with your more modern pieces.
Slipcovers – Slipcovers are a great way to add variety and match your furnishing to the changing seasons. A new set of slipcovers can add sophistication and prevent you from worrying about your expensive furnishing getting dirty.
Wicker baskets – Storage is vital to ensure that family spaces are kept neat and tidy. Buying a few wicker baskets and storing items like magazines, toys, towels and blankets, is a great way to add storage without a hefty price tag.
