Tips for Your Home Furnishings

During the furnishing of your house, you naturally take a large part into account with your own taste. Which bank do you like and what color do you want on the walls. But there are also a number of practical matters that you have to take into account. We have put together a number of tips for you which are handy for decorating your home. The interior design tips are for the living room, kitchen and children's room.


Decorate kitchen
In most houses you can realize an open or closed kitchen. Preferably open? Remember that this is spacious and cozy, but that you also look at the pots and pans and suffer from odors. Hold approximately 120 cm in front of the room to move around the counter.

Place a sink if possible in front of a window. This is pleasant in daylight and you can look outside. Half-height walls divide a space without taking away any light. For example, create a half-height breakfast bar between the kitchen and the living area, against the air duct, which will not bother you anymore. Do you not want an open, but not a closed kitchen? Create a hatch!

Leave about 100 cm space between the dining table and the wall for the chairs, so you can easily slide them backwards. A fixed bench on the wall saves space and offers plenty of seating space at a large dining table. Do you have small children? Create a playground in the kitchen and they are also in sight during cooking.

Decorate living room

By placing a side table or low cabinet behind the sofa, you can close the seating area nicely and do not look at the uncomfortable back of the sofa. Determine the location of the fireplace and the television. Take into account from which places in the room you want to see them. Consider a good distance to the TV. Calculate 3 to 4 m for a screen size of 40-44 inches and 3.5 to 4.8 meters for 50 or more inches.

Do you want to work at home, but do you not have room for a separate work room? Make a workplace in a niche or wall cupboard in the living room! But remember, do not plan the whole room. Emptiness gives a sense of freedom and luxury.

Decorate children's room
By placing wardrobes crosswise you can separate the sleeping area from the play area. under a loft bed you can put another bed or furniture such as a wardrobe and pouf or use the space as a playground. Smart and accessible storage is essential in a nursery and saves space. Think for example of storage boxes on wheels that fit exactly under the worktop.

Make a map
Before you put the furniture in a place in your house, it is advisable to first make a floor plan with furniture to scale. So you can easily slide with the furniture to fit or that side table really well in that corner and whether the sofa and bookcases fit against the long wall. Sliding with cardboard is a lot easier than with the real furniture!
