Tips For Purchasing New Furniture For A CondoHow to Find the Right
Furniture for Your Condo
If you're just getting settled into a new condo, you are probably
thinking about how to furnish your living space. Condos generally
give you a little more challenge for decorating than houses due to
size differences. Although condos are smaller than houses, you can
still choose your new furniture thoughtfully to get the most out of
your new space.
Plan Ahead…
Before you can buy new condo furniture, determine what you need.
You may have a few odds and ends that you can easily integrate into
a new set of furniture. If you have a useable end table, you won't
need to buy another one. If, however, none of your current pieces
match the aesthetic you want, you can get rid of them and start
fresh. You should also consider your lifestyle as you decide what
pieces you need. For example, if you plan to invite guests over
regularly for special occasions, you need to invest in a large
table to accommodate them.
After you've determined what pieces you need to buy, you can begin
to plan where you will put each furniture piece. You should use a
measuring tape to figure out exactly how each piece will fit
comfortably in your rooms. Bring any notes you make with you to the
furniture store. With limited space, you likely will be unable to
include every piece of furniture you want. However, with proper
planning, you'll have no trouble fitting in the pieces you need the
most.
Consider Functional Furniture…
If space is a major issue in your condo, choose your furniture
selectively. Some furniture options have multiple uses or give you
the option to store them when not in use. For example, a sofa bed
in the living room gives you a great way to offer a guest a place
to sleep without having to dedicate a whole bedroom to the
occasional guest. Some common living room pieces can offer you
storage, including ottomans and coffee tables.
In your dining room, invest in quality folding tables and chairs
for nights when you have extra visitors. Although pulling this
furniture out may make your living space feel cramped, every guest
will have a place to sit. You can also invest in dining rooms
tables that include optional extensions for occasional use.
Avoid Heavy and Bulky Furniture…
When you're trying to maximize space, heavy condo furniture will
make your living space feel small. Big leather sofas, for example,
will overwhelm and cramp your space. Many older couch styles offer
you more seating than you generally need on an average day. Smaller
and modern furniture pieces feature clean lines and less bulk to
help your space feel open to you and your visitors.
