Less is more – how to furnish a small room in a block of flats?

In a small space, less is more! It's even an interior design mantra when it comes to small spaces. Don't make the mistake of adding furniture to a small room. It may seem that furniture "squeezed together" and placed closer together will be the optimal solution in a small room, but this is not the case! Instead, carefully select a few pieces of furniture that you absolutely need for a comfortable life. You don't have to worry that less furniture will make the room less cozy! On the contrary! It is the textiles and small decorative elements that you choose that will bring a unique atmosphere and warmth to the room.

Remember that compact rooms require well-proportioned furniture, so choosing sofa beds designed for small rooms or modern desks created for small home offices will be the most effective way to use space. Furniture you can pay attention to includes:

Experiment with the layout of the room

When thinking about how to arrange a small room, it is often worth choosing less conventional paths.  Pressing furniture against the walls is not always the best solution. It's understandable that we want to maximize space, but sometimes it's worth choosing other concepts. Give your furniture room to breathe by moving it a little away from the walls.

Selected furniture and lighting for this interior

 

Retro style lighting – which lamps to choose?

Retro lamps are mainly multi-arm chandeliers with glass shades suspended in the living room and contrasting with modest single hanging and standing lamps. Single hanging lamps found their place in the kitchen, small rooms and the hall. Wall lamps work well in the hall, bathroom and living room. What do you need to know about lamps in this style and what should you pay attention to? We give you a hint!

Loft hanging and ceiling lamps - effective lighting

Modern loft lamps beautifully arrange interiors in the industrial style of the 1950s and are worth our attention. We advise you which loft lamps to choose for modern, industrial interiors! Loft hanging lamps have long cords (cables) because they have to come down to us as much as possible from a much higher ceiling. However, they are used not only for high usable attics, but also for ordinary apartments in blocks of flats. The lamps will differ only in the length of the cable, so that the lampshade can be located at the desired distance from the floor.
