When we have a small space for our living room, we can have many doubts about how to decorate it and make the most of the little space we have in such a way that it looks beautiful and cozy. We bring you different ways to make your small room a comfortable, functional and well decorated space.
Small Living Room Furniture
An important aspect that helps to maintain harmony in the social area is having only the furniture that the area needs. Otherwise, by including many different types of furniture, the environment will be saturated and with less space.
Furniture such as sofas, entertainment centers or tables occupy more space in the environment. Therefore, it is important to choose those that are consistent with the size of the room. If the room is small, choose small furniture, in this way we maintain the appropriate scale and balance for our social space.
To make the room look more spacious, choose sofas without arms, with long legs so as not to obstruct the view of the floor, with simple lines. Your room will look lighter and more open.
Sectional or “L” sofas are useful as they can be placed against the wall and include more people without the need to have sofas to the sides of the coffee table.
A TV cabinet or entertainment center can not only fulfill the function of organizing all TV sets, but also bring space to store or decorate when they include open shelving.
Furniture with open shelves works much better in small spaces than furniture with doors. The space looks smaller than it actually is.
Coffee table in transparent material that reflects light such as acrylic or glass help to give the illusion of more space. Simple wooden tables without many decorative details take up less space and fulfill the same function. Consider those that have hidden storage space to save space.
Colors for the walls
Light colors will help make the environment look brighter and more spacious by pushing back the walls of the room.
If you find that your room is very boring, incorporate a wall with an accent color in a tone darker than the main walls or the color that you prefer, this wall can be the focal point of the environment.
Accessories
Add color to the cushions, vases and other decorations that occupy your small room. Ideally, use a maximum of three colors that combine with each other. Limit their quantity, remember what designers often say: Less is more.
Group two or three ornaments of the same type, if you have bookshelves, place the books in a niche but leave a free space, so the area will be clearer. The essential thing is to distribute the colors in such a way that the space looks harmonious and balanced.
Plants are a widely used complement to make your environment feel cooler, add life, are inexpensive and decorative. Take advantage of a corner or behind or to the side of the sofas.
Let’s not forget to include a mirror. If you are facing or to the side of the window better, it will reflect the natural light from outside and illuminate the small room more, it will look larger.
Regarding the patterns, you can use the patterns you want, but there must always be a connection with the color to achieve harmony.
Hidden Storage
To hide clutter and organize your small living room, what better idea than to have furniture that includes hidden storage.
The ottomans and coffee tables have built-in storage.
illumination
Good lighting enhances any environment, therefore, to decorate your small room, we need to capture as much natural light as possible so that it does not look dark and smaller and, in addition, decorative and functional artificial light that allows covering certain areas that require it, especially the corners.
Windows with simple curtains, in light solid colors are effective in attracting more light. If it has vertical folds it will give us the feeling of having a higher ceiling, we can place it at the height of the ceiling, to give that impression and that it reaches almost to the ground. The blinds allow you to adapt the desired light level and also generate a sense of order in the environment.
To add interest and elegance, a central pendant lamp will go a long way. And dark areas such as corners, floor lamps contribute to creating a functional atmosphere.
Small Organized Room
Let’s not forget that it is necessary to maintain a certain order so that everything displays harmony and balance. An important factor is to get rid of things that we do not use.
Likewise, another aspect to consider is to determine the frequency and use of the small room, in this way we will achieve a more organized space. If the area is shared with a small office or if it has a TV area, it is likely to be used regularly, for example. A small simple sketch will be very useful to distribute and incorporate furniture and decorative objects, instead of constantly moving them and we end up exhausted.
