Moving in to your new condo home is not easy as it’s laid out to be on brochures and magazines. Coming from a usually larger house, first-time condo dwellers need to adjust to a more efficient, low maintenance lifestyle that characterizes condo living. One of the most crucial aspects to think about is space management.
DMCI Homes’ Mayfield Park Residences — a Zen-inspired mid-rise development within bustling Pasig City, presents homeowners a refreshing option for well-managed condo homes. Units here are infused with modern Asian aesthetics and carefully planned to ensure efficient and functional space distribution — specially suited for Filipino families who are ready to embrace the changing pace of life in the 21st century.
It doesn’t take an interior designer’s certificate though to make the most of your condo home. All you need is common sense and expert tips to manage your space:
Choose furniture wisely. The key to having efficient efficient space is to keep your furniture concise and multi-purpose. There are various furniture available at home depots and furniture outlets, such as dining tables that can be extended, and sofa beds that can double as sleeping space for guests. Choose modular systems for your kitchen and storage needs which are more versatile. Small-scale furniture also gives a cozy feeling, as opposed to larger ones that can make a room look cramped.
Light up right. Use wall-mounted lamps or sconces to visually free up floor space. Avoid bigger floor lamps which can overwhelm the whole room. Use lights with dimmers to get flexibility in lighting option. Go natural during daytime by opening your windows to let the sunshine in for a brighter and roomier feel.
Color it cool. Light tones can make smaller rooms appear bigger, while darker tones create the opposite effect. Make smaller spaces work by using paint colors in the same color tones. This technique ensures a smooth flow from room to room and creates the impression of larger space.
Mirrors on the wall. An easy option is to install mirrors strategically around the room to give the illusion of more space. Use wall-to-wall or large framed ones.
Space management can make a difference to the function and comfort of your living areas, since this affects your mood and well-being. You may not have the means yet to upgrade to a bigger house, but for the mean time, live efficiently and in style at your condo home by mastering the art of space management.
