7 tips for furnishing your rented apartment or house

In doubt whether or not to decorate houses and apartments for rent? Architect Sabrina Salles teaches how to bring personality and style to environments

Is it worth furnishing a rented apartment? To answer this question, architect Sabrina Salles is categorical: decorate, yes! After all, your home deserves to have style and personality, and there are many things you can do without a job. And there are always solutions that can be discussed with the owner.

For those who are thinking of changing the face of the house – without breaking the rules of the rental contract -, the architect gives seven tips. Watch!

1. Tables

Free walls can and should be filled with frames. Take your style into consideration: works of art, photographs, prints … All environments can obtain a composition: living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and even the service area. “They can be applied with nails, double-sided tape and / or placed on furniture, sideboards and shelves”, says the architect.

2. Nature

Bringing nature indoors brings life, joy and leaves the environment beautiful. “You can set up a vertical garden in the laundry room, in the living room or on the balcony. You can also bet on pots with plants in strategic places, such as living rooms and bathrooms, as well as a vegetable garden in the kitchen to grow your own dressing,” he lists.

3. Lighting fixtures

The abuse of indirect lighting is a strategic way to decorate the rented apartment. “You can use several options: pendant lights on the kitchen countertops, lamps in the bedrooms and living rooms and, in the dining room, a chandelier that adds sophistication to your decor style,” he indicates.

4. Coatings

A topic that raises many doubts is the floor, this is because the residents do not always like it and nobody likes big renovations. “It is possible to transform the covering without necessarily resorting to a renovation. The advice is to use vinyl floors, which you can find in different colors, patterns and textures,” he says.

As for the kitchen and bathroom tiles, there is the possibility of painting or gluing. And finally, the classic: wallpaper. A great option for transforming the apartment, as it has a huge variety of options.

5. Carpets

Whether to hide a floor you don’t like, or to warm up the environment, rugs are wild cards in decoration and serve different environments well. In addition, they are easily transportable to a new environment in the event of a move.

“The important thing is not to stop using the object, which makes every space more welcoming and elegant”, says Sabrina.

6. Curtains

Speaking of dressing up the house, the curtain plays this role perfectly. He protects from the sun and brings comfort to the environment. “Choose a curtain that matches the decor, taking into account the fabrics and characteristics,” he says.

7. Furniture

Generally, rental apartments have planned furniture and this ends up limiting the possibilities of decoration. “To dribble, bet on loose furniture with a strong personality, such as an armchair with a different design, a piece of furniture with an eye-catching color, an old refurbished piece of furniture or an object of art”, he points out.
