Tips for Elevating Your Tiny House
1. Pick the Right Color Scheme
Using lighter, bright colors in your decorating can help reflect light and make your home instantly seem larger. Keep your wall color light, and use your countertops and panels to add in a pop of color.
2. Invest in Exposed-Leg Furniture
Add more visual space to your living area by furnishing it with pieces with exposed legs and chairs without arms to give the room an open feel.
3. Declutter Countertops
Keep your countertops and other kitchen surfaces clear to use strictly as a workspace when cooking or baking. Follow our tips for decluttering kitchen counters to maximize space.
4. Make it Feel Spacious
Maximize your house’s space by adding mirrors to reflect your wall colors, especially if the space is lacking windows or natural light.
5. Use Open Wall Space
Avoid bulky storage pieces and go with floating shelves or built-in bookcases to give yourself organization options without taking up floor space. It’s great for storing Kitchen appliances, books and other essential items.
6. Be Strategic with Your Choices
Multipurpose furniture pieces that can be both a seat or table and a storage solution are also helpful, such as a bench, trunk or ottoman.
7. Choose the Right Art
Choose an oversized piece of art to anchor the room and make your space appear larger than it actually is. A general rule of thumb is that the frame should take up two-thirds or more of the wall.
