Basics of Furnishing Apartments

Furnishing Apartments

The latest trend in residential scenario in Chennai is the fully furnished apartments. Though builders offer them at minimal extra cost or as an added advantage, one can never quite settle down with furnishings that have been someone else’s idea. There is always a difference of opinion, even within the family, and so when it comes to furnishing your apartment, certain points need to be considered, rather than looking at glossy beautiful brochures and deciding on the requirements.

Space

The availability of space is the foremost fact when it comes to furnishing apartments. With clever and innovative ways, you can deck up a studio apartment to accommodate all your favourite furnishings. Rather than stuffing it up with huge cushioned sofa sets, go in for sleek designs that take up little space and add a spacious look to the area. Bunker beds are the most popular when it comes to decking up kids room. Add some fun curves that not only enhance the look of a box room, but also act as bumpers for naughty kids.

Colors

Color scheming is an art by itself, always choose your colors keeping in mind the walls, furnishings and spaces. The standard coloring is a 60:40:10 proportion and beige is not always the neutral color. For those who want to color sync their draperies with other furnishings, ensure that you balance them right. In your want to fit in the best colors, do not mix and match too many as it might be jarring to the eye. And always remember, you may want a change it in the future.

Environment

High-rise apartments have ample scope for sunlight to stream into the homes. Make effective use of this natural lighting to highlight the interior furnishings. For those living in their own homes, furnishing can be done in detailed planning, keeping in mind the air-flow, lighting and external influences. Going green is the new mantra, and eco-friendly green furnishings are available in the market. Choose wisely as every product marked green, may not suit your choice of living.

Walls and rooms

Running wallpapers corner-to-corner is not a popular idea nowadays. Wall accents and thematic paints are indeed a very clever way to deck up any house to give it a totally new look. You could leave at least one wall nude, with bricks and mortar and few accents, to add a rustic look to the living rooms. While master bedrooms have innumerable options to deck up, the best is reserved for the kids bedrooms, with thematic, embossed wall paints, coordinated furnishings et all.

DIY

The latest trend to catch up with Chennaites is the Do-it-yourself kits, thanks to the liberated imports. One gets to pick and choose the best of DIY furnishings from any corner of the world and can get set to work. Some of the latest residential projects offer customers the choice of DIY kits, where one can get a literally first-hand experience in the choice of furnishings.
