Nowadays, an apartment is quite an expensive purchase, but it is not enough to simply buy and arrange things in a new home.
There must be a competent approach to the layout of the apartment.
When furnishing an apartment, you should start by creating a budget. Then ask each family member about their interests, what they like and what they don’t like, and where they spend most of their time.
Based on the survey and budget plan, you can begin to furnish the apartment with all the amenities.
It is necessary to draw up a plan of the apartment, after which plan the arrangement of the rooms.
Hallway
There should be nothing superfluous in this part of the apartment.
In the hallway, we will lay a rug at the threshold and put things like a hanger, a shoe dryer, and a bench on which you can sit while you take off your shoes.
Living room
Next we move to the living room, and there, as in all rooms, it should be spacious.
For a cozy living room, you need a carpet, a TV and a sofa. If desired, you can put a computer desk.
Children's and bedrooms
The nursery needs curtains, a bed, and a table with a lamp for the child to study.
Let's move on to the next bedroom: we'll hang curtains there and put in a large bed.
Kitchen
Here you need to put a set of furniture, a dining table and chairs, install a refrigerator, an electric stove, and hang blinds on the windows.
Bathroom and dressing room
This requires a sink, a bathtub, a small rug and a wall cabinet for bathroom accessories.
We will install a large and spacious wardrobe in the dressing room.
Here is a general layout of the apartment. More specifics may be required if the apartment residents have different interests/hobbies/jobs.
It is important that things do not clutter up the space in the apartment.
Experts believe that 12 to 40% of the total area of an apartment should be allocated for storage.
Thus, in order to furnish a "Euro-three-room apartment", you need 12-40% of the total area of the apartment, a competent approach to the matter and a survey of each resident of the apartment about his tastes and preferences.
It is equally important to plan your budget so that you don’t end up in a situation where you run out of money halfway through your plan.
If there are children in the apartment, do not forget about safety rules, and store all items that pose a threat to the child’s health in designated places.
