The living room is one of the main spaces in the house and, even if it is very small, it is recommended to decorate without saturating it and giving it a style according to your tastes.
Make it cosy. There are those who say that new apartments are getting smaller and smaller, so every centimeter counts, especially when it comes to creating a cozy atmosphere. Inside the home, one of the most popular spaces for visitors or when you want to watch a movie is the living room, but it is not always wide. Here we leave you the guidelines to decorate it if it is small and what are the elements or things that cannot be missing. So take note.
The idea is not to saturate the space with too many objects or furniture and thinking about practicality. Thus the place will gain personality and will be ideal for your moments of leisure.
How to decorate a small room: tricks
1. Light colors on walls
A neutral and light palette of colors will help conserve light for longer. The preferred ones are white or cream tones to give a feeling of spaciousness. If you want to put wallpaper with patterns, let it be only on one wall.
2. 2-section or modular sofa
These furniture must be proportional to the environment. You can also use puffs and it is best that they are in a neutral color and decorate them with cushions or blankets to make them more striking.
3. Shelves
These storage areas on the walls will help to take advantage of the heights of the space and give depth. On the shelves you can place pictures, vases, books, among other elements that contribute to the decoration and do not take up space or disturb.
4. XL mirrors
These will give a feeling of spaciousness and should be veneered or anchored to the walls instead of resting on the floor.
5. Curtains in light shades
Rollers and floor-to-ceiling curtains (to give a feeling of more height) should be light colors such as white or cream so that they let in the most light.
