Living in a small space comes with various benefits, from less stress and clutter to more coziness, creativity, and better bonding with your loved ones. On the other hand, these tiny spaces can be challenging to put in shape, especially when expecting guests.
Let’s see a few tricks and tips to easily make your small space appealing, cozy, and guest-friendly.
Invest in comfy seats
The quality of your seats has an immense impact on the comfort of your tiny space. In fact, your living space will never be comfortable if it lacks comfy seats. Besides the bed, you can also add some seats for your guests to relax and unwind in – nesting furniture of settees are an excellent choice. Choose seats you can tuck in a corner when not in use.
A small tabletop lamp nearby is also a great way to engage your guests in reading or doing crossword puzzles before bedtime. For the best outcome, don’t forget to add an apartment coffee table.
Provide entertainment
Guests are strangers in your home, regardless of how familiar they are with you. In most cases, their schedules and sleep routines do not match yours. So, it would be great to offer them an entertainment to keep them occupied until they fall asleep or for the period they intend to spend around.
Besides the TV, you should inquire about their favorite shows and movies and provide them through DVDs, Netflix, and cable, among other options. Entertainment is an effective trick to keeping your guests comfortable in your small space and fighting boredom when you are asleep, working, or busy with other things that you can’t engage your visitors.
Maximize on privacy
Despite being necessary for everyone, including guests, privacy is challenging to achieve in a small living space. However, lack of adequate privacy makes your guests uncomfortable – it feels like an intrusion into their personal space. So, try as much as you can to provide your guests with privacy to keep guests comfortable in your home.
Some of the best ways to maintain your guests’ privacy include investing in an ornamental room divider to match your home’s aesthetic where there is no doorway. Coverings such as blinds and curtains are also helpful in maintaining privacy for your guests.
Invest in storage spaces
You should fit your guest rooms with storage space for two primary reasons: to minimize clutter and provide perfect storage space for your guests. Some things you can keep in these storage spaces include photo albums and seasonal decorations.
Guests greatly appreciate an opportunity to stow away their clothes and toiletries. You can invest in floating shelves and a bed frame with storage space underneath for a simple and modern look. With empty hangers in place, your guests are comfortable hanging their clothes in the closet.
Final words
Besides the above tips, you can also add a coffee cart to your guest room. Your guests can always make themselves a cup of coffee or any other beverage anytime without waking you up. Other tips for making your small home guest-friendly include installing new lighting and adding fresh flowers and extra blankets.
