Tips For Furnishing A Small Condo

 

Make space for small space style! Great things come in small packages, but furnishing a small space isn't without its own set of challenges.

Making smart choices that increase functionality while maximizing your square footage is the key-and the experts at Small Space Plus know exactly how to do it. If you live in a condo or apartment, and are looking for condo furniture for sale, these tips will help you enjoy your cozy home to the fullest (without it actually feeling too full).

 #1 Maximize The Number Of Seats

A smaller living room may not be able to accommodate a big sectional, but that doesn't mean you have to limit your guests to two-seaters. You can add extra seating with an ottoman or accent stool. Having a smaller sofa will allow your space to appear larger, and you'll still have room for guests without crowding your living room.

 


Bonus tip: An ottoman can also double as a coffee table, allowing you to streamline your furniture for small spaces and free up more space.

#2 Dual-Purpose Furniture

In a small space, multi-purpose furniture is pretty much your best friend. In your bedroom, consider a media chest that can store a TV and cable box on top and clothes on the bottom. Make the most of your second bedroom when looking for condo furniture for sale by installing a Murphy wall bed instead of a guest bed.

#3 Fool The Eye

Hang your curtains from the ceiling when dressing your windows. This will make your room appear and feel larger. Also, try to find blinds that can be pulled all the way up, which will allow the natural light to flow in and brighten up the room.

 

Bonus tip: Light colors can also make a room feel bigger, and microfiber fabrics are easier to clean than ever.

#4 Use The Walls As Storage

When looking for condo furniture for sale you can make your walls work for you! Anything and everything can be stored in an entertainment unit, a bookcase, or a desk with open shelving. Keep things neat and organized with baskets. The most underrated space-saver is installing brackets with shelves on the upper walls. These days, it’s easier to do than ever, and cheap to do yourself. Any unused wall space is an opportunity!

 

Bonus tip: You can keep your keyboard tucked away when not in use with a drop-down keyboard desk.

#5 Be Flexible

Choose a dining table with a drop-in or removable leaf. This will allow you to extend, or pull-out, your table, making it larger when entertaining. When you don't need to, you can just keep it small and compact along the wall. Perfect furniture for small spaces.

 

Bonus tip: To give your guests more elbow room, choose smaller scale dining chairs without arms.

#6 Start From The Ceiling

Don't have the floor space for a statement accessory? No worries! When looking for condo furniture for sale add a stylish light fixture up high. There’s a lot of space on the ceiling, so it’s the one space where you can hang a larger piece.

 

Bonus tip: Mirrored wall décor will also give the illusion of more space while taking up minimal room.
