If you are like most people, you wish you had more
room in your home. You wish you had more space for storage, an extra chair, or
cute knick-knacks sitting around the house. But have you ever thought
“out of the box”—the box of seeing only 4 walls? It’s often called the "fifth wall" and how
you decorate it will have a remarkable effect on what you do with the rest of
the room. I’m talking about the
Floor!
All floor space takes on specific shapes, patterns
and sizes and can be utilized in many other ways than just for walking. Check out the following advice from Cinderella Carpet One in
Salinas for making the most of your floor space.
Choose the right furniture: Tables, specifically dining room tables, do not have to be
huge, stealing valuable space from your floor space, especially if you don’t
use it on a regular basis. Purchase compact
dining sets that tuck into themselves, saving you flooring
space. The same goes for furniture. Select pieces that fit the contours of the
room and seat a reasonable number of people. Multi-use furniture, such as a
sleep couch, is also a good idea.
Make use of corner space: People have a tendency to not use the corners of
their home. They figure nothing can fit there, right? Think again. When wall
space is at a premium, making use of the space where a wall and carpet meet is
important. Corner cabinets that match your flooring are ideal for storage as
are desks to use for a workspace.
Underneath Storage: The space between
the floor and the bottom of your bed is typically large and only gathering
dust. Use this flooring space for storage. You can place things in boxes or
purchase small storage units.
Fashionable Storage: Remember that although
it’s nice to have floor space, certain rooms don’t need as much. Purchasing
baskets or moving
storage carts can be placed in various areas around the home
for additional storage.
As you are
considering your floor space, you should also think about the quality of your
floorcovering. I’m talking about
your floor and what you choose to use as your flooring is important, in looks,
affordability and wear. This will
give your room more depth and will enhance the total design appeal of your
space.
An amazing area rug can
entirely change the design of a room.
It can serve as a great foundation for the colors and textures of the
furniture.
Changing up
the colors and patterns of your tile
floor can make the floor an interesting part of the room. And, like tile, hardwood can be laid
out in a way that creates a more appealing design than merely laying down wood
in a straight line. A great wooden
pattern can bring depth and character to the floor.
A stone
floor is really a cool choice for your floor. It can bring elements of
nature into your home, which you can build around, for a great look.
A marble
floor is another great option to surprise the eye. You can really make the entryway of a
home truly stand out and use the floor as art space!
