There is a widespread belief that only prestigious mansions are design-worthy, but in reality, even your one-room flat can be beautifully designed and, most importantly, functional. With the help of our advice, you will succeed in this endeavor, without your house looking chaotic or claustrophobic.
Functional areas
In order to refurbish a small one-room flat, you need to divide it into functional areas. This will help you optimize space and preserve functionality, and, obviously, beauty. Every space at your disposal needs to be meticulously designed, so as to make your one-room flat spacious and neat. In so doing, the division into functional areas will help you adapt your design to the surrounding environment.
Sliding glass doors
The installation of a glass divider will help you divide spaces without cutting down on precious light in your one-room flat. Most importantly, it won't make it look smaller than it already is. Our objective is to create a luminous, interesting and functional open space whilst keeping in mind that looks matter too when it comes to interior design.
Color harmony
Colors in harmony with each other and used intelligently, will help you camouflage the appearance of your one-room flat, making it look more spacious. Light-toned walls give a sense of breadth to the space, whereas the introduction of vibrant colors that stray away from the usual white will give personality to your room, if used sparingly.
A foldaway bed
We recommend using a foldaway bed to hide it, if your one-room flat is too small to accommodate both a bedroom and a living room. This is a useful and functional interior design option, especially if you work from home or if you don't want to distract your guests' attention from other forces in your one-room flat.
Versatile furniture
Versatile furniture will help you optimize space in your one-room flat, making it a thousand times more functional and spacious than ever before. A table can be the main protagonist in a study, a kitchen or a living room, without the need for any drastic change. It's mind-blowing how much space you could save this way! For this reason, versatility is a must for interior design in your one-room flat.
Vertical space
Sometimes we don't realize how much space is at our disposal unless we start thinking outside the box. Just look upwards and you're likely to find large, unused walls. If your one-room flat has vertical space, you can try your hand at vertical gardening or use it as a loft. However, this option could make your one-room flat smaller and more chaotic, so take the size of your walls into consideration before making your choice.
