How to Make Your Home More Modern & Spacious

Making a home more modern and spacious can be a tricky task, especially when you may think you’ve already used up what space you can! However, there are a few effective tips you can use to create that contemporary and airy feel in your home.

Sliding glass partitions

If you’re thinking big and want to renovate, taking away the permanence of walls and replacing them with sliding wall partitions works two-fold. Use them between either a living room and dining room, or a bedroom and home office. Room partitions with glass manifestations offer privacy when closed, yet can easily open up space to combine the two rooms into one.

Effortless storage

When it comes to storage in a modern and spacious home, think simple, minimal, and effective. Coffee tables with storage and cubby holes make simple storage additions to your living room. Keep items off the floor (or put decorative ones in sight) in your bathroom, bedrooms, and hallways by using floating shelves – stylish storage that perfectly complements any modern room or space.

Using mirrors for effect

Mirrors work wonders for making any room feel spacious. Use a long wall mirror in your hallway to make what is normally a narrow space feel open and modern. Well-placed indoor plants make sure splashes of colour are reflected down the hallway.

Paint with white

If your current colour scheme is on the darker side, opt for white or light neutral tones for the walls. Pairing a white living room with wooden furniture and a large rug makes an auspicious trio – giving you the sense of spaciousness and a contemporary look.
