See how you can decorate spaces of different sizes and make them comfortable
Preparing the room for the arrival of a new child is one of the most special moments for parents. Besides, it is a very pleasant and loving task. In this sense, knowing the size of the room is essential when starting to think about the decor. This way, you can arrange everything proportionately and make better use of the space.
small rooms
It is currently common for houses and apartments with small rooms. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t create a beautiful and functional space. To give a sense of spaciousness, architect and urban planner Marina Belotto suggests using light colors in the bedroom as much as possible. In addition, it is necessary to use furniture that respects the size of the space and ergonomics, so as not to make the room even more cramped.
Furniture with more than one function
Another tip to optimize space is to use furniture with more than one function. For example, you can use a shelf inside your clothes closet as a changing table. “You can place the changing table inside the wardrobe and you don’t need another piece of furniture, which will be unusable after two or three years of life”, underlines Marina Belotto. In this way it is also possible to reduce expenses.
simple changes
Interior designer Mimy Anselmo advises thinking about spaces that can to commute over time. Consider making “for example, the breastfeeding chair, which is going to be taken out relatively soon, to make way for play space,” she recommends.
large rooms
For large rooms it is also necessary to think of furniture and objects that respect the dimensions of the space. In this case, according to Marina Belotto, spaces can be created inside the bedroom, such as a functional sector for the parents (with changing table, cradle and high chair) and another play area (with objects for the child to play).
shared room
You can also adjust the environments if the drinks need to share space with parents or siblings. Architect and urban planner Marina Belotto suggests trying to create an atmosphere that is compatible with that child’s identity or, at least, with this expectation of identity.
Delimit spaces
For her it is also important to try to minimally separate the space that belongs to the child and the parents or sibling. For this, she recommends using elements or textures to separate one space from another, because they are different people.
different ages
For the room divided between siblings of different ages, the interior designer Mimy Anselmo recommends thinking about “furnishing in harmony with the whole space and, perhaps, with some elements that create the atmosphere of the brand new baby is coming.”
