Pub In The Park

When you only have one real room in the house it is hard to make it seem like there are more rooms. However, in many one bedroom houses this has become a common theme to not put up any walls but instead to leave it to the person living in the house to choose how each room will fit into the rest of the house. Here are a few tips that can help you put your one room house in order and make the cottage-like house look more like a home.

There are two ways to go with this, you can either make it look more like a cottage or you can go with more of a modern theme. If you want to go with a modern theme you will want to start by painting the walls a bright color. You may even want to make the house two tones in the sense that the walls should be one color and the ceiling should be another color. Don’t do the ceiling white or a darker color than the walls. The best color for the walls is a light blue color. This will open up the room and make it feel bigger than it is. If you need some privacy in the area that will be your bedroom, don’t cover the whole thing but just put a nice privacy screen that matches the color of your walls along one wall. When you need it you can pull it out and change clothes. If you don’t like it against the wall you can put it around your dresser to give yourself a little more privacy. You will want to buy some custom window blinds that will stand out and draw the eye to them. This can serve as the focal point in the room.

If you want a cottage theme you should paint the walls themselves a two tone with the bottom a darker color than the top. The ceiling should match the lower color in order to give the house a more complete feeling. Doing the room in shades of brown will make it feel a little more homey. Having a privacy screen is not necessary but can be very decorative and beautiful. Don’t put too much furniture in the room. Keep it down to one table and a couple of couches if you can. This will make it feel like you have more space. Wooden blinds will continue the cottage feeling and will give the house more privacy than most other blinds.
