As the housing market explodes across the UK, the tiny home has become more and more popular. From one-bedroom homes to studio flats, people are finding themselves living in smaller spaces than originally imagined.
So, we thought we’d give a few tips on how to make that tiny home feel a little bit bigger!
Tiny Home Storage
Now, the obvious tip is going to be in the storage of big, bulky items. You probably already knew that, right? Well, the key to a happy life in a tiny home isn’t boxes everywhere, but rather select pieces of larger furniture that make your life easier.
For example, our Upholstered Kilim Solid Wood Ottoman Blanket Box would make a perfect piece to sit at the end of your bed. This could house everything, from throws and spare bathroom towels to a selection of books or stuffed teddies. The best part is that it can also double as a seat or a surface for your PJs to sit on.
Our deep willow storage baskets also make for great, open storage in the hallway (think: umbrellas, wellies, even a kids toy basket). Not to mention, they could also double as some on-trend laundry baskets too.
Multifunctional Furniture
The prize of all tiny homes has to go to the click clack sofa bed, though. We have a range of on-trend pieces in poppin’ colours to choose from, all of which have free delivery included. What a bargain! For the ultimate piece of stylish, multi purpose furniture though, we have to choose the plush Bailey Velvet Sofa Bed in grey. This two-seater sofa can instantly transform into a comfy bed for one person, making a perfect guest bed should you not have a spare room.
In a studio flat? Then our easy-to-assemble and high-quality click-clack sofa range is your first stop on the décor and furnishing train. Sure to provide lasting comfort and support, you’ll be able to experience a luxurious night’s sleep without sacrificing much of your limited space. Just make sure you have enough empty space in front of the sofa to allow it to unfold into a bed easily.
Tiny House, Big Ideas
We know finding inspiration in a tiny home can feel limiting, but the challenge is sure to make your inspiration soar. Don’t let the idea of a small space restrain your ideas. Something as simple as putting a few mirrors up can help make the room feel bigger and reflect the natural and artificial light. Any mirror naturally acts as a focal point in any room or hallway, while a taller mirror can draw the eye upwards to give the illusion of a taller and more spacious room.
You can also make use of our v-shape nest of tables in the unused corners of your home. Not only do they make great side tables, but they can be tucked away when not in use, giving you that all-important floor space that any tiny home needs. This modern, natural wood look would suit any home and is available in two shades – oak and dark wood.
