Did you know that even smaller homes can be renovated to make it look good, stylish and usable? Usability and looks are really important and probably that\u2019s why you have decided to go for home renovation. Renovating bigger space is much easier because when you have space, you can plan everything without worrying about the space. But renovating a smaller space may not be all that easy because you have to utilize every square feet without compromising the looks and style.<\/p>\n

We often receive requests from home owners on how they can renovate comparatively smaller space to make it stylish and look good without compromising the usability of the space. I am going to share a few home renovation tips and ideas that you can use while renovating your house.<\/p>\n

\"Home<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you can do while renovating smaller space to make it look bigger.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Let\u2019s start with the accessories first. Accessories or decorative elements like show piece, flower pots, plants etc should be placed logically. But remember to not overdo them. When you put lots of accessories and decorative elements in smaller space, it will look like jammed pack and clogged. So place them logically and avoid placing a lot of elements.<\/li>\n
  2. It\u2019s a good idea to have separate living and dining area, but when you have limited space, it makes more sense to combine them. Place furniture like sofa and table in such a way that same area can be utilized for multiple purposes. Using smaller round shaped dining table near the living area when you have placed your sofa, could save space and also give you extra space to seat in the living area when you want. Try to use chairs without arms to save space. It\u2019s easier to get on to the chair<\/li>\n
  3. Since you have limited space, it makes more sense to design your furniture in such a way that you can get extra storage space. Create as many hidden cabinets as you can so that you can free up the space without compromising the usability.<\/li>\n
  4. Think of utilizing smaller space in the kitchen \u2013 for example you can create a small shelve for spices or cookies and snacks. Similarly you can create smaller shelves in living area or in the bedroom to keep books. It\u2019s better to leave as much of carpet area as you can utilize unused space in the corner and sides.<\/li>\n
  5. Create extra storage space by designing vertical cabinets over the kitchen top and let it go till the ceiling. You may use a tool to access them, but it\u2019s worth having them.<\/li>\n
  6. Did you know that you can create an illusion of spacious living room or bedroom by selecting right color for your wall and a matching color for the furniture? Use color quite smartly.<\/li>\n
  7. When possible go for wider windows. It helps you get natural lights and also make your space look spacious than it actually is. You may also like to hang the large size landscape\/natural painting in your bedroom or in the living area to create an illusion of larger space.<\/li>\n
  8. Strategically placing a mirror near a decorative element can also help you create an illusion of bigger space.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Over to you<\/h3>\n

    There are quite a few things that you can do while renovating a house to get that perfect and stylish look without compromising on the utility. By using matching colors and placing furniture and decorative elements strategically, you can improvise your space smartly. You may also hire an interior designer for home renovation consulting<\/a> using ServiceSutra. Having a consultant along the way can help you big time.<\/p>\n

    How do you go about renovating a space?<\/p>\n
