It cannot be easy to decorate a studio apartment or an open floor plan that combines living and dining spaces. The problem is to decorate these areas looking cohesive and appealing. Here are five decoration ideas for combined living and dining rooms.
- Use a Large Furniture to Divide the Room
When trying to decorate two distinct spaces, use a huge piece of furniture to create a division. The most effective technique is to position your couch such that it divides the space in half. Because your sofa is usually the largest piece of furniture in the room, you’ll notice a distinct line running across it!
- Use a Rug
Rugs are a major investment; they bring design and softness to your space, but the best aspect is that they contain each space within its region. Even though the carpeting is below, it visually divides your space which means one room can create two different spaces.
- Create a Walkway
This one may be a little difficult because not everyone has a large space. If your space is large enough, the most simple way is to create a walkway between them. Physical space is fantastic. Bonus points if you use a long hallway runner to create the illusion of a walkway.
- Use a large piece of Art for Each Space
Use art to accent each space rather than a gallery wall that covers the entire space. A huge painting or piece of art over each portion aids in defining each area as a distinct space. Try to use a piece of art that is appropriate for the size of the room.
