Home is where the heart is they say. It is still considered to be the pinnacle of social achievement to have a home to call your own in a country like India. With an exploding population and paucity of living spaces, property prices have seen an exponential rise in the past two decades or so. Global trends and enactment of certain laws have damped the upward spiral in recent years. Nevertheless, owning a humble abode remains a distant dream for many.

6. and interesting ideas to liven up space.

Clients have the option of customizing their needs and like with a multitude of options such as detachable trays with open handles on either end, making moving them easy for a variety of household uses. For parties, the removable trays can also be used for serving. For casual sofa side dinners, the trays can easily be moved and then stored for a stylish space-saving solution.

Statement Art

It might seem a bit odd considering putting up a piece of large-scale art for a rather small space, but it’s one trick, if used wisely and aesthetically, gives a room a more spacious feel. It adds a focal point to the design scheme and is another easy way to showcase your aesthetic.

Hanging Baskets

As has been highlighted earlier, in dealing with small living spaces, it’s always a good idea to go vertical, thereby keeping floor space as clutter-free as possible. Hanging baskets are a great solution towards the end of the day tidy-ups for toys, books, magazines, etc.
