In each house, an urgent problem is the increase in space. It does not matter if you live in a small apartment or in a villa located in the mountains. There is always a need to maximize space to create an atmosphere of greater sensuality, space and coziness in our homes.
There are eleven zones in your home that you visit most often, and there are eleven beautiful ways how to visually expand them.
1. Entrance hall
The first such area is the hallway. Here you meet guests, see your children off to school. Functional load on this room assumes that there is enough space to change clothes, change shoes, without experiencing any discomfort from the fumbling movement of the cluttered space.
Use the minimum necessary furniture. You can fully confine yourself to a low cabinet for shoes with a shelf for gloves, headgear and other small wardrobe items, as well as miniature wall hooks for outerwear. By placing a mirror in the hallway, you will visually link it to the rest of the house.
2. Kitchen
The kitchen is the most functionally saturated place in your home. The process of cooking should be as pleasant as possible. It is also important to remember that it is here that the family gathers in full force most often. Therefore, the canteen should have a free, easy dialogue.
Expand the space with vertical shelves located above the working area, replacing them with bulky cabinets. Arrange at the eye level fasteners for frequently used dishes. Use containers for dry foods with well-read labels about the contents. This will greatly speed up the search for spices if necessary.
3. Bathroom
For sure, the bathroom, the place where you wash in the morning and brush your teeth before going to bed, is not the best spectacle in terms of furnishings. Who uses it and how?
The answer to this question will effectively optimize the space in this room. For example, if you have one bathroom and there are children in the house, use open laundry baskets, you can place a single electrical outlet behind the door that is protected from moisture.
To visually increase the volume of this zone, you should use transparent shelves, consisting of several levels, on which all necessary accessories will be located.
4. Living room
Often the place of intra-family confrontation is the living room, turning into a battlefield for the TV at the moment when you are going to watch your favorite show, and your children are busy passing the next level in the video game.
Expand the space with the help of multifunctional furniture, hiding in it scattered around the room gaming accessories.
Remove from the premises a cabinet with various disks, replacing it with a small coffee table, equipped with a small shelf for storing everything you need. Of course, this will not solve the problem of confrontation between fathers and children, but battles will now take place in open space.
5. Children's
Whether your child is a newborn baby or a rapidly growing teenager, the children's room should be a reflection of his dreams, while at the same time providing enough opportunities for study.
Keep the desk free of unnecessary congestion by placing school assignments on a board attached to the wall. With the help of a bunk bed, where the gaming table is located on the ground floor, and the sleeper sleeps on the second floor, you can significantly optimize the space in this room.
6. The bedroom
Each bedroom in your home should be a refuge from worldly misfortunes. Here you can spend a quiet and peaceful night and wake up rejuvenated. Proper use of cabinets will ensure sufficient freedom of space.
Keep seldom used things in voluminous containers built into pieces of furniture. Use designs to store laundry with enough section level to be able to distribute different types of clothes on separate shelves.
7. Home office
Recently, more and more people prefer to use a home office to solve certain business problems. Expand the space in this room by using a multifunctional desk.
The optimal distribution of stationery in it will significantly reduce the number of lockers and shelves in the work area. With the help of original accessories, emphasize the individuality of your cabinet, which will favorably affect your productivity.
8. Laundry service
Laundry can hardly be called a favorite place of housewives. Optimization of this area of the house will allow some to smooth out such an unfavorable impression. First of all, you should place the cabinets at arm's length from the center of the room.
Distribute the shelves and laundry baskets in such a way that they allow you to access the right group of things depending on the nearby appliances.
For example, next to the washing machine must be a container with dirty things; near the ironing board it would be nice to place a cabinet for storing washed and dried laundry.
9. Small rooms
Small rooms should not be a problem when implementing your interior solutions. Expand the space by compactly arranging decor elements in the most unexpected places.
Hang small shelves for photos on the doors, fit into the wall partition, if it is not a carrier, a compact built-in cabinet. Give a unique look to your room by attaching an old children's bicycle to the ceiling.
10. Garage
Remember, a garage is not a dump for unnecessary things. The space in this zone can be optimized due to the export to the garbage of half-ruined furniture, broken instruments and other rubbish.
Install racks for storing necessary spare parts. Create a small storage room where you could hide a lawn mower, shovel, wheelbarrow and other garden accessories.
Mount the boat mounts on the ceiling. Everything should be done so that you can comfortably drive into the garage, not depicting the figures of the highest driver's aerobatics, afraid to drive a wheel on some trinket.
11. Landscape design
Attentive attitude to the appearance of your house will be the key to successful maximization of the next landscape zone. The appearance of neglected bushes and overgrown grass will make an extremely dull impression on your guests.
Careful processing of green spaces will create a favorable atmosphere already on the doorstep of the house. Decorate the main entrance with flowers, trim the growing up to the roof of the ivy, keep the lawn in the cut. All this will not leave indifferent any visitor to your home.
All of the above tips will allow you to enjoy the stay in your own home, and create an atmosphere of comfort of the family hearth, which will provide you with at least a temporary shelter from adversity and disappointment of the environment, forever fleeing somewhere in the world.
