Divide to increase

Our tricks

Divide to increase space! It seems a contradiction, but in reality this is the key to our guidance. Nowadays, we try to create more space, both at work and at home. Also for reasons of “safety” after the pandemic wave, it is of fundamental importance to maintain the right distances. But as we deal with real estate, our search does not only end in the physical structure of the room. We have decided to add an extra touch to all this, including design tricks. So you will be able to divide the rooms to increase the space! So, if you are ready and loaded, we can get started!

Separé goodbye : welcome empty bookcases

The old partitions are out of fashion now. Unless you are a vintage lover, we do not recommend the use of the booth. They are real dividers and do not allow communication with the rest of the room. But how is it possible to divide to increase the space ? It’s simple. The valid allies for this enterprise have only one name: the bookcases. Bookshelves are a design object that has become more and more successful over the years. We have moved from the simple initial use of “book holders” to an innovative tool. To create more space by dividing the room, we recommend making the most of the bookcases. Place them where you want and insert them in the various blocks of different objects. Photographs, plants, some books. The trick ? Leave some empty space, to allow the structure not to divide the room completely, but simply to slightly separate the two rooms. The result ? A double function room that will not lose its width. On the contrary ! It will look bigger !

Sofas sofas sofas

When it comes to sharing a room, we usually refer to the living area. But after removing the bookcase, what are the other elements that allow us to share a room without compromising the space? Ladies and gentlemen, the solution is called the sofa! Yes, it is! Modern sofas, which form real angles, guarantee a precise but not too exasperated division of space. Being a furniture that develops horizontally, it will not compromise the width of the room. Look for the shape that best suits your room to be divided and position it strategically. Also in this case, make the most of the decorative component. A sofa is still the element of relaxation par excellence. Focus on colours and shapes. In short, truly phenomenal allies.

Divide to increase

Curtains instead of doors

The doors are the room dividers par excellence. But to enlarge spaces, it is necessary to use curtains and eliminate doors (where possible). Between the living and sleeping areas, for example, choose light and clear curtains that can reflect light and divide.

And you, what trick are you going to use?
