5 Simple (and Inexpensive) Ways to Upgrade Your Living Space
Lately, “there’s no place like home” has taken on a whole new meaning. Your space should act as a safe haven, but after staring at the same four walls for an entire calendar year, perhaps it’s become plain that your university era-dotted apartment (looking at that nearly decade-old Billy bookcase) is due for some sprucing. - Jillian Vieira
In Elle Canada’s latest blog post for 5 Simple (and Inexpensive) Ways to Upgrade Your Living we provided some fun and simple interior design tips and tricks that will transform your space.
“Splash Those Walls in Colour or Pattern”
We’ll admit, we’re suckers for a crisp, all-white palette, but there’s no denying that a paint job (or mindfully chosen wallpaper) can add real richness to a room. “Think of it as crafting a thoughtfully layered outfit; the same principles apply to interior design,” says Jude Kamal, founder of Sansa Interiors. “When you create focal points and cool moments, your room will automatically feel more coherent and complete,” she adds. Every space will require special consideration, but a good rule is to pick one or two areas of interest to highlight with a wall treatment. If going all out on a bold colour feels overwhelming, rely on an earthy neutral palette—right now, Kamal is into light shades of nude and sand—and pair it with white accents. Stumped on where to find modern wallpaper? Kamal likes Juju Papers and Murals Wallpaper for their elegant (and downright cool) selection.
