Do you have a small home or condo that you want to upgrade? Even with limited space, there are many ways you can get creative to increase storage while modernizing the look of your home. To get you inspired during this reno season, here are a few handy tips for renovating a small space.

Start by De-Cluttering

Before you get started with any renovation, it’s always a good idea to eliminate as much clutter around your home as you can, especially if you have limited space to work with. Having less stuff not only helps your contractor work more efficiently, but it also helps smaller spaces look bigger. So start by assessing the items around your home and then donate or discard anything that’s never really used or appreciated.

Determine the Purpose of the Renovation

Before diving into any renovation, stop to think about what exactly you’re hoping to achieve with it. What’s the purpose of the reno? Maybe it’s increasing storage space or natural light, creating a guest suite when friends or family stay over or making the kitchen more eat-in friendly. Whatever the reason, it’s important to nail it down so you can make sure you end up with the functionality and result you desire.

Always Consider Extra Storage

To incorporate easy fixes to boost your storage capacity, consider adding furniture that doubles as storage or even built-in couches. Also, utilize shelving towards the ceiling to store items that are rarely used.

Stick with Open Concept

Whether you have a smaller home or condo, having a boxed-in design with lots of walls or hallways can make any interior feel dark and stuffy. That’s why open-concept layouts have been the staple of modern interior design for years. This one change can make any space look bigger, brighter and more inviting.

Make Bedrooms Look Bigger with Coffered Ceilings

Do you have small bedrooms that you want to improve? An optical-illusion design trick that’s often used to make rooms feel bigger is a coffered ceiling. Inspired by Baroque and Renaissance architecture, this decorative element has been used to create a touch of elegance, texture and spaciousness. It essentially adds upward indentations into the ceiling with attractive patterns. Consider this if you want something more elaborate for your bedroom or living space.
