Improving Interior Without Renovation: 10 Design Hacks from IKEA

Organizing your home, hiding things you don't want to see, and saving space in your house – all of this is quite possible in your own home. Using bestsellers from IKEA, we explain in detail how to use proper furniture and useful accessories to create a comfortable and cozy living space, even in a small apartment.

1. Where Nobody Sees. Pillows, bedding, and throws usually take up a lot of space. Hidden sliding drawers under the bed can hold everything you need and free up shelves in the wardrobe from sleep essentials. 
2. Space Saving. To organize your hallway, you don't need to buy a bulky wardrobe that takes up the whole wall. A compact shoe rack and open shelves for shoes and hats can effectively replace it, saving several square meters. 
3. Lighting Mood. Properly chosen lighting is key to creating a cozy atmosphere in your home. In addition to general lighting, you can use focused or mood lighting – such as candles on an attractive stand. 
4. Complete Order. Everything on the kitchen should be in its place, otherwise cooking can take hours. Organizing is simple: it's made from convenient trays, boxes, and stands inside, while the outside looks like clean and free work surfaces. 
5. Scandinavian Style. Scandinavian design is when every item can be used in various ways. For example, this table can serve as a coffee table or even be adapted as a bedside table. If desired, the tray-top can be pulled out and used separately for serving. 
6. Double Benefit. A regular sofa bed can be a great solution for owners of small apartments, as it can be used as a sofa during the day and as a bed at night. This way, every square meter is used to its maximum functional potential. 
7. All in Place. With a cabinet, you can place your TV and organize storage in the living room. Large drawers are perfect for storing remote controls, gaming consoles, and other TV accessories. A compact wardrobe can store your favorite books. 
8. Vertical Limit. Running out of space on the kitchen? Use railings: they can save a lot of space and you can mount things that are often reached – knives, spatulas for cooking, spice jars. You can also hang towel hooks and even plant pots. 
9. Shopping Lover's Dream. By the way, railings are useful not only in the kitchen. You can easily organize storage for jewelry and accessories with them, freeing up space in the wardrobe for new wardrobe items. 
10. Out of Sight. Wires sticking out can ruin even the most harmonious and well-thought-out interior. The problem is easy to solve: hide the wires in special covers, and the room will look neater.
