Studio apartments are becoming more and more popular in Georgia these days. These types of real estates are considered to be modern, practical, and comfortable. The modernized apartment combines a kitchen, living room, and dining room. Whenever you are resting in a living room with your family members, you do not have to fetch food from another room – a kitchen is incorporated in a single space together with other rooms.
In a studio apartment, every centimeter matters. The interior design of a studio apartment plays a key role in making the space comfortable and functional. For example, as a studio apartment planned in a European style combines only a kitchen and living room, the interior design should be identical for both zones.
You need to divide the studio apartment into functional areas to make the full use of a kitchen and living room. Look at some tips about creating separate functional zones in a single space:
- Use different colors for the floor and the walls
- Use complementary color palette
- Use a partition wall
- Use furniture and accessories
- Use lighting
- And, lastly use plants as dividers
One of the most effective ways to divide a single space into functional areas is to use different floor covering for different zones. For example, you can lay parquet and laminate flooring or cover the floor with a rug in a living room and install tile flooring in a kitchen. As you have to cook there, try to buy low maintenance tiles to save time and energy when cleaning.
Colors have a powerful effect on our emotions. When it comes to selecting colors for the apartment, first create a general idea of the interior design in your head. For example, if you decide to paint the living room blue, use the light color in the kitchen. Blue color helps you relax, while the lighter one will build a nice atmosphere for eating.
Partition walls can play a key role in an apartment décor. It is one of the best ways to build separate zones in a studio apartment. In addition to its use as a door or storage space, the partition wall can reduce noise, unwanted odors, or extra lighting. To prevent lingering cooking smells from spreading to the living room, install an extractor fan too.
Bar table and stools are often used to decorate the apartment. Aside from using it as a divider, it can function as a gathering place where you can have a drink and spend a nice evening with your family members.
One of the most affordable ways to create separate zones in the apartment is lighting. You can choose the same interior design for the living room and kitchen, and then use the lighting to transform them into separate functional areas. As you have to use edgy kitchenware, the table and sink should be properly lighted. Install yellow lighting over the table and add wall lights to create a romantic atmosphere in the apartment.
How would we transform a studio apartment into a vibrant, green, and original space? The answer is simple – by using plants. Aside from the visual effect, plants can be used as perfect dividers. Plant shelves will help you easily build different areas in the studio apartment.
