Agree, it’s one thing when one person lives in a one-room apartment, and quite another when a large family is forced to huddle in a limited space.
For this reason, the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, decided to share techniques that will help you organize your space correctly and live comfortably even in such conditions.
Use the window sill for other purposes
A window sill is not a flower stand, but a functional surface that, for example, can become an extension of a kitchen set.
As a result, you will get additional work space, and you can use the empty space underneath to store things you need in the kitchen.
In the living room, the windowsill can easily take on the role of a desk or even a relaxation area.
Make use of the space above the sofa
Let's return again to storage, which, as we know, is one of the most pressing problems for owners of one-room apartments.
To solve this problem, install cabinets under the ceiling in the recreation area, and so that they do not “press” and do not look bulky, there should be not 1-2 of them, but along the entire length of the room.
To bring harmony back into the space, balance this solution with a vertical storage section from floor to ceiling.
Put up dynamic wallpaper in your hallway
Due to the tiny size of the apartment, you should not get carried away with decoration with a repeating pattern - in a tiny space, the eyes will only get tired of it.
Leave dynamic wallpaper or photo wallpaper in the hallway - here they will not have time to get boring and will distract attention from the doors or furniture in the living room, which is visible from the corridor.
