Space Saving Design Tips From Buy It Now Furniture
Making small spaces work
Small rooms are more exciting and spacious when the furnishings are not oversized.
TIP: Use an ottoman as your cocktail table (it adds seating function and uses less space than most tables).
Space saving cool ideas
TIP: Large mirrors can add the illusion of added space – in bathrooms try hanging two separate mirrors over your 2 sinks instead of one large mirror, it breaks the space nicely and accents your wall color.
Making use of limited space
TIP: Use a closable entertainment center as a functioning home office space combing all the TV and computer components into one cabinet.
Space saving options - No need to over buy
TIP: You don’t need to buy each piece in a room collection. Buy just the sofa and 2 different coordinating accent chairs.
Get creative and save space
TIP: Buy a nice bed and get creative by adding inexpensive, smaller tables as nightstands.
Purchase just the chest, allowing room for an accent chair for additional seating.
Using color as your friend
TIP: Color can add excitement to any room, always have one, colorful visual element in each room – it serves as a focal point and gives the room dimension.

Designing for small spaces

Design a room all about you
TIP: Always think out of the box – make each room speak your personality, with you favorite finds. Mix and match different looks, combining old elements with new. Browse through magazines for ideas and then rework them with your own thoughts.
Design a room for kids
TIP: Get the kids involved, sit down and ask their favorite colors, likes and favorite things they love. Mix these things with the pieces you feel are important for function and future growth. Give them a space or wall area to define and express themselves. Chalkboards and corkboards are inexpensive and work great. Be a good listener.
Design in nature
TIP: A great way to get in touch with the earth is to make sure you embrace the natural elements that the earth produces. Include small terrariums with live plants, rocks you may find on trips and fallen wood limbs and sticks with interesting shapes. These add affordable warmth to any room along with a story of how you found them.
Relax and break some rules
TIP: designing a room is about creating. Each mind is different and each has the capability to express things in many ways. Explore, break some rules, experiment. If it makes you happy and touches your creative soul then it works. Start with the things you love most and try and work those things into your furniture pieces, color choices, fabrics and accessories. Your room should speak about you.
