8 Cool Ideas That Will Change Your Interior Forever

In this bright two-bedroom apartment, the couple Женя and Таня did all the renovation themselves. They designed, selected materials, and fixed every flaw. The couple loves to travel, so their apartment turned out very cozy and sunny, like a piece of tropical summer they brought with them. Today we'll tell you about the most interesting solutions we spotted in this apartment.

1. CUSTOMIZING IKEA

Even the simplest furniture from mass-market can be given elegance and uniqueness. And it's not always limited to just replacing hardware. For example, the couple replaced handles on a regular IKEA shoe cabinet with bright and beautiful ones from Zara Home.

They also added venetian blinds and bone-white handles to the standard PAX storage system. This made the cabinet an essential part of Mediterranean style.

As for the low wooden bench, Женя and Таня painted it in two main colors of their interior using Little Greene paint leftover from the renovation. This simple bench turned into a stylish TV console that fits perfectly in the living room.

2. A Storage Box Pouf

"I saw it by accident on our website and couldn't help but buy it!"

A sunny pouf shaped like a suitcase on legs is already a treasure for travelers! Just look how functional and spacious it is. For the entryway, a pouf with a storage box is an excellent choice. Brushes, cleaning supplies, shoe laces, umbrellas or a dog leash – everything can be stored in one place.

3. MAGNETIC LOCKS ON DOORS

The most important feature of such locks is that they are silent. There are no tongue mechanisms for securing the door panel in their construction, making them even more durable.

4. DECOR INSTEAD OF TALL KITCHEN CUPBOARDS

The couple really loves bringing beautiful things from their travels. On their kitchen, they didn't make tall cupboards reaching the ceiling. The remaining space above white cabinets looks even more naturally integrated and homey.

5. A GRAPHITE BOARD

A graphite board in the kitchen is used not only for drawing, but also for zoning. It’s a very beautiful and useful item. Leave messages for family members, draw dishes or write daily menus.

6. AN ACCENT WALL

An accent wall can be more than just a brightly colored surface. This is another unusual solution. In their bedroom, the couple made an accent on texture. Decorative stucco mimicking concrete combined with airy decor and white furniture looks stylish and cozy.

7. FOUR DIFFERENT FINISHING MATERIALS IN THE BATHROOM

Two formats of white ceramic tiles, ceramic granite resembling wood, and wall paint – such a variety of finishing materials in a small bathroom can create chaos. But with proper use and zoning, the finish creates a very harmonious interior.

8. DECOR IN THE BATHROOM

We completely agree with Татьяна's choice here, because it’s rare for people to decorate the bathroom with paintings or souvenirs from trips. And they're missing out! Agree, it's pleasant to brush your teeth in the morning and remember vacation days. A positive mood for the whole day is guaranteed!
