Do you need redevelopment?
When developing an interior design in the style of minimalism for an apartment limited in square meters, at the initial stage, it is necessary to determine the need for redevelopment. In some cases, it can be avoided by using expressive visual aids, zoning and design techniques. They will help to visually see the possible design of small interiors with photos that you can find on our website.
However, redevelopment of small-sized housing often helps to solve many problems associated with free space. This way you can remove unnecessary storage rooms, partitions, combine rooms, etc. Housing redevelopment can be done in two ways:
-
By the successful arrangement of pieces of furniture to divide the room into functional zones. The design of budget interiors can do with minimal intervention in the primary layout. For optimal zoning, color contrasts can be used in interior decoration, sliding screens or doors, furniture, decor items, etc.;
-
By demolishing unnecessary partitions - this option is suitable for one-room apartments. Due to the absence of load-bearing walls, there is no risk of damage to the structure of the apartment building. Partitions can be removed between the room and the corridor, the living room and the kitchen, the loggia and the room, etc.

When developing the interior design of a small apartment, we use effective methods that can visually or actually make the available space more free, spacious and comfortable for a modern person. Among such techniques are the following:

Furniture - modern furniture is perfect for small spaces. A minimalistic stylish shape, no unnecessary details and decor, restrained colors are what you need to arrange a compact interior. Special attention should be paid to multifunctional furniture that can turn a small section of a room into several full-fledged zones, for example, a combined recreation and work area;
-
No boundaries - using the same flooring throughout the apartment without sills and transitions, we manage to achieve a single integrity of the space, which visually makes it larger;
-
Corners - Thinking over the interior design of a small room, we are looking at how we can use the corners of the room in the most functional way. Corners are excellent areas for organizing storage systems, which can seriously help in arranging a comfortable and not overloaded environment for residents;

Competent work with space - high shelves or open cabinets with shelves to the ceiling help to make the room visually higher, mirrors are visually wider, you can make the room "light" and spacious using light shades in interior decoration and furnishings.
