Choose furniture adapted to small spaces

Arranging a small room of 12m² is not often an easy task. Indeed, it is sometimes difficult to find the right balance between comfort and aesthetics. Most of the time, you end up with a room that simply fulfills its function as a room where you sleep without it really corresponds to our taste.

However, by showing a little imagination, it is quite possible to transform it into a functional piece which combines practicality and aesthetic.

Choose furniture adapted to small spaces

A good choice of furniture guarantees you to have a beautiful harmonious room where each piece of furniture will bring out the design style that you want to highlight.

The bed

Since the bed represents the most imposing element in a room, it is important to choose a good location so that it does not occupy all the available space. The choice of its location will obviously depend on the configuration of the part.

In a rectangular room, it is advisable to place the bed in a corner of the longest wall. You then have enough space to arrange a small office area or to install a wardrobe or even a library.

On the other hand, if it is under the attic, it is possible that you have no choice but to position the bed in the middle of the room. You can then optimize the inclined space of the roof by integrating low furniture or storage bins.

In addition, opt for practical and functional bed models. In a 12m² master bedroom, choose a two -seater bed for example with drawer to win an additional storage compartment. In a teenage bedroom, a convertible sofa allows you to have both comfortable sleeping and a sofa to receive friends.

If it is a child’s room, the trick is to invest in a bunk bed or a modular bed. But the big trend in children’s bed is currently on the mezzanine bed. Thanks to this very high bed, you have a space under the bed to use according to your desires. You can enhance it with a small dresser or a low wardrobe to store the clothes or add a small table and a chair to transform it into a comfortable desk area.

Storage furniture

When you choose your furniture, remember that it is essential to free up the space on the ground as much as possible so that you can easily circulate in the room. In this sense, favor furniture that optimizes vertical space.

Opt for example for a shallow wardrobe ideally with sliding doors or for a custom model. A shelf hanging to the wall can also serve as a library to store books.

Illuminate your little room

A bright room gives the impression of having a beautiful spacious room. This goes without saying that the natural light that enters through openings is the best way to illuminate your room. But of course, there are other easy -to -use tips to provide a brightness supplement.

Install various lights

In a small room of 12m², lighting plays an essential role. It gives an impression of grandeur, but also to create an enveloping and warm atmosphere. Therefore, multiply the lighting of all kinds. The trick is to disperse them all over the room and vary their intensity for a particularly original effect.

In order not to occupy the space on the ground unnecessarily, avoid the lamps on foot as much as possible. Preferably we choose suspended lighting, sconces, a small bedside lamp or even a lamp to put on the desktop table.

Choose the right colors for the walls

For maximum light, you can also play on the color of your walls. Note that painting the walls with soft and clear shades is a nice way to light the room while offering a soothing atmosphere to this room dedicated to sleep.

Indeed, neutral colors such as beige, gray, white, ivory or pastel tones allow you to visually enlarge the space. To accentuate this spirit of sweetness, bed linen and curtains in this same tone are also to be preferred.

Nevertheless, it can sometimes be interesting to energize the room a little by incorporating bright colors in order to break the wise and smooth side of light tones. To do this, you can paint a section of wall or headboard with hot shades or dress it with u wallpaper to bring an original design touch. In addition to creating a beautiful contrast, this tip allows at the same time to delimit the space.
