5 ways to optimize and beautify your studio in Toulouse
Even if the specificity of the studio is to present a small surface, it can be transformed into a place where it is good to live, functional and beautiful. Here are some tips to make your little nest in Toulouse a cozy place.
The basics to make your studio a perfect place to live
Even if we spend a lot of time outside under the beautiful Toulouse sun, we also like to spend time at home, provided of course that the place is well laid out and beautiful.
For this, it is above all important to take into account the specificities of the property. How is it laid out? Does the ceiling height matter? What is the most important area? Does it suit your lifestyle? You will then have to determine the area in which you like to spend the most time. If you like to spend long hours cooking, you will have to enhance this space. If you prefer to spend time relaxing in front of the TV, then the lounge area will be preferred.
Smart planning
Start the layout of your studio by buying the largest piece of furniture, usually the sofa bed. Then move on to the rest of the furniture and then prefer the space-saving and functional models, which are always very practical in a studio. Do not choose XXL furniture that will unnecessarily occupy floor and visual space and favor clear or glass furniture. Finish your purchases with “finishes” such as toilet accessory.
If you like to create your own furniture, which can be a great solution for having custom-made furniture, don’t forget to equip yourself with good tools that will be very useful to you. For example, to cut wooden boards and create your shelves, you will need to use carpenter tools.
To arrange your space, be logical. Do not put the dining table at a great distance from the kitchen and use all the empty spaces. If your studio has a high ceiling height, why not use this asset to create a mezzanine where a bed can be placed?
A well-thought-out layout for a small space
When the place is small, we hesitate to insert decoration, for fear of overloading the place with useless things. At first, avoid angular shapes that tend to reduce visual space and prefer curves (tables, floor lamps, etc.).
Play with materials and heights. You can thus dress your windows with very long curtains to maximize the height. Put on light shades that make spaces look bigger. A curtain can also be used to separate two spaces to create independent rooms. Play on the textures of textiles. Adopt a unique color and vary the fabrics. This makes it possible to once again visually expand the space.
Enlarge the area
Another tip to put into practice: do not overload the space. Opt instead for low furniture that lets the eye wander. Leave some areas without furniture to ventilate. Add some mirrors (facing a window for example) to enlarge the space.
A well thought out decoration
Even if the studio is small, do not neglect decorative items. They will bring charm to your interior. Obviously large objects that will occupy an unnecessary surface. If you like dark colors, know that they tend to reduce space. It is therefore necessary not to abuse and deposit these shades in small touches (cushions, for example).
All you have to do is convert your property in one of the districts of Toulouse to make it a perfect studio.
