Unless it is a room designed just to eat, we will have to take care of the combination of the decoration with the living room or kitchen, as appropriate.

One of the key issues is the provision of dining table and chairs. It is important that the furniture provide comfort to the guests, but also do not affect traffic on the environment. Depending on the size and quantity of dining chairs, you might want to install the table in the center of the room or place it near a wall.

Lighting should be located just above the table. It is important that the light is warm and not dazzles: this will help us create an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. If the room is integrated into the kitchen, it is necessary to have a specific lighting for the top, which is the working area when cooking.

1. Let’s start with the windows of a small room.

A window allows natural light to the bedroom, so do not block it. Use a minimum of accessories, so that the windows look bigger. Heavy curtains or blinds will not let light through. Try to try and clear light fabrics or blinds thin.

2. As must be the floor.

Clear the floor of unnecessary items, like a puff, a vase or a table for anyone to use and only take up space. You’ll be surprised how much space you will gain unnecessary things simply by cleaning the floor. If there are items placed on the floor, mirrors or pots, try to put them on high shelves.

3. Color is the most important in interior decorating.

Although the use of two or three colors can create dimensions in a room, this tip does not go for small rooms. If so your house, then use a single color on the walls. You can change colors between rooms, but always within the same tones.

4. An important detail is the fabric.

When it comes to small spaces, avoid showy fabrics with large prints. If you already have furniture with great designs and fabrics can not reupholstered, fabric cushions combine them with neutral, with no prints. Every house has corners with much spirit. That takes the fabric to create depth and give more visual impact.

5. Small spaces always face the problem of poor natural light.

Artificial light usually never is not your first choice. Instead, try to enhance the light that already has your home. Place mirrors to bounce light from windows and walls chooses to paint an enamel finish. Keep it clean your furniture surfaces that reflect light. Read the rest of this entry »
