There are plenty of ways to boost home storage capacity to make your home peaceful and tidier. The approaches vary from simply buying compact furniture to finding creative means to utilise every square centimetre of your available space. Yet, apart from storage, there are other aspects to focus on if you would like to create a truly neat and peaceful environment in your home. Here are 10 pros and cons for a peaceful, tidier home you should better bear in mind while shopping and decorating:<\/p>\n

\"storage<\/a>

Pros<\/h3>\n

Genuine wood shades \u2014<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

easy to maintain and to clean, genuine wood furniture (or at least MDF in wood effect) will contribute to a tidy look and feel in your home.<\/p>\n

Soft pastel decoration colours \u2014 beige and pastel shades create very peaceful, unobtrusive atmosphere in any home.<\/p>\n

Quality durable furniture \u2014 nothing gives the home a shabbier look than furniture with damaged doors and drawers.<\/p>\n

Optimised storage \u2014 go for fitted storage units whenever possible and keep everything neatly organised.<\/p>\n

Carefully chosen, matching accessories \u2014 choose drapes and rugs in similar shades and ornaments to make sure the room looks consistent.<\/p>\n

Balanced ambient and decorative lighting \u2014 know the difference between functional and decorative lighting and get both of them right.<\/p>\n

Hidden power outlets \u2014 keep power outlets hidden wherever possible (behind the TV, lower next to a bed, etc.).<\/p>\n

Wireless tech whenever possible \u2014 or even go wireless if you have a chance.<\/p>\n

Live plants \u2014 live plants, especially if placed and chosen carefully, can really make any house feel like home.<\/p>\n

Plenty of open space \u2014 this will mostly depend on your decoration setting, but on the whole, you should try to leave as much open space in the room as possible.<\/p>\n

Cons
\nEasily soiled furniture and accessories \u2014<\/h3>\n
\"sideboard\"<\/a>

sideboard\u00a0 sideboard<\/p><\/div>\n

do not choose colours and materials that are quick and easy to soil. Black gloss, for example, looks astonishing, but you will have to dust every single day.<\/p>\n

Empty furniture that is not used \u2014 get only essential furniture units to open more room for yourself.<\/p>\n

Wire tangle and power cubes \u2014 think of your power outlets and electric wiring in advance to avoid mess and wire tangle.<\/p>\n

Plenty of floor standing accessories \u2014 they can clutter even a large room, not to mention a small one.<\/p>\n

More than three dominant colours in the room \u2014 unless you choose to go with Indian style, it will create atmosphere that is simply too bright and obtrusive.<\/p>\n

More than three dominant materials in the room \u2014 three is more than enough to highlight your decoration theme.<\/p>\n

Heavy drapes \u2014 especially if the windows are small and the amount of natural light is low.<\/p>\n

Cluttered worktops and counters \u2014 it is completely up to you to keep your home tidy and clean, so make a note of not messing up your furniture.<\/p>\n

Gaudy light sources \u2014 low hanging, ballroom-like chandeliers are simply inappropriate in a room with low ceiling, so stay reasonable.<\/p>\n

Different decoration patterns in every room \u2014 most importantly, stick to the same trends and styles in all of your rooms \u2014 not identical, of course, but similar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
