Rising real estate prices all over the world are forcing people to huddle in smaller and smaller spaces. This situation, of course, reached its epoch in Japan. But this is a separate story, which I will tell you about sometime. And today we will talk about current trends in European and Russian realities. If, in a simple way, then you can remember the proverb in crowded conditions, but not in offense. And today it really is. Well, shall we figure it out?
Small spaces are ultra-comfortable
Retailers often use the euphemism "cozy" to describe something close. On the one hand, this is manipulation, but let's remember the childhood feeling when we want to hide in a corner, crawl under the table, drink from tiny cups at a small table. It is interesting that modern interior designers, striving to create coziness in a large room, focus on small corners with a large number of objects, where everything performs its function.
As for the initially small spaces, then there is no need to try too much. I put a small chair, put a teddy bear on it, and it's good. And if we talk about functionality, now there are many, for example, built-in furniture, the same beds.
By the way, if you have been to Ikea, then you will surely remember very small interiors that look quite modern and cozy.
Close always organized
Striving for coziness in a small space, you will inevitably come to maximum efficiency and organization in your belongings. Gathering and littering is simply impossible, there will be nowhere to go))).
Small and cramped, easy to furnish and decorate
Furniture and decor can be fabulous for owners of large apartments and houses. On the other hand, a small area can be easily decorated with simple and affordable methods. Instead of a lot of furniture, you just need to buy one couch, a small coffee table and a pillow. Having put everything in its place, you will see how the room will sparkle with new colors.
Minimalism without stress
In modern interior design, minimalism is taking over the minds more and more. People are trying to get rid of unnecessary variegation, a riot of colors, to clear their brain of unnecessary information. One of the great things about small apartments is the opportunity to enjoy minimalism and simplicity. You don't even have to try, just don't clutter up the rooms and they will look stylish.
Small is easier to clean
What is there to add. Cleaning a small or one-room apartment is a song compared to a three-room apartment. Dusting one shelf is many times easier than cleaning a huge bookcase. And, of course, the more space, the more time you need to clean, clean furniture, etc.
