- In the room

- In the kitchen
- In the nursery
- In the bedroom
- In bathroom
Shelves
Several small shelves located in the corner of the room will immediately perform both a decorative and practical function. Place photos or figurines on them and see how much your room will change.
Corner for creativity
Furniture can also be placed in the corner if decor and space allow. This desk or work desk is ideally positioned as it is close to windows on both sides, providing good lighting and gives you the opportunity to work and read in a pleasant atmosphere.
Small corner table
Such a table is not intended for writing or eating, it, in fact, has the role of a shelf for several photos, table lamp, vases with flowers or similar decorative elements.
Reading nook
Another great idea is to create a reading nook in one of the empty corners of your home. Find a sufficiently lit corner (closer to the window) and equip it with a pouffe and a floor lamp. In winter, add to this a warm soft blanket and the perfect place to spend your free time reading your favorite books is ready.
Like as a photo - in this article
Another photo idea for setting up a reading or thinking corner. You can just put a chair, or you can also hang it with curtains, shutting yourself off from the whole outside world for a while and plunging into your own.
With a chair in the corner near the window, it will also work a good place for reading. Just fabulous place for reading and relaxing. Here you have to make more effort than just laying a pouf, but it turns out incredibly cozy. 
Home cinema.
The corner of a room is actually a very good spot for a TV because it allows you to see it from almost anywhere in the room. Arrange armchairs and sofas around and enjoy watching movies and TV shows.
TIP: if there is no special corner cabinet under the TV, just put it in the corner on the nightstand, in the end the result is the same.
In this case, in the corner we put not a TV, but a sofa special form. The whole family or a group of friends will fit, stock up on popcorn and enjoy watching.
Mirrors
Beautifully framed mirrors can also do a good job of filling up an empty corner space in a room. This will give the room more light and a cozy atmosphere.
Hangers
The hanger is very helpful when you need to get something from the top shelves of the closet, with it you do not have to risk your life and put a chair on a chair to get what you need. But its storage in the apartment takes up a lot of space, and the view is not very aesthetic.
But this idea will solve all the problems: use the steps of the stepladder as a hanger for blankets and its appearance will immediately change and you can take blankets as soon as you want to wrap yourself up and keep warm.
Library
Pay attention to how effectively this corner is made, all the shelves complement each other perfectly. Standing in one place, you can reach almost any book. Of course, not many people have a piano at home, but even without it it will look very good.
Tea corner
The living room is very convenient to have corner bench or a sofa, put a small round table there, and you get a cozy place for tea drinking or pleasant conversations.
Plants and vases
Plants, especially large ones, are a very beautiful decorative element and are suitable, in fact, for all rooms. However, they take up a lot of space, so the corners are perfect for them. Plant a flower in a beautiful large vase and it will wonderfully complement the home interior.
Floor lamp or floor lamp
A floor lamp placed in the corner will gently illuminate the room, creating a cozy homely atmosphere in the evenings.
Empty corner in the hallway
Photos on the wall
Fill in empty corner paintings or photographs, organize a small art exhibition at home. It will definitely please the eye more than bare walls.

Designing a kitchen is not an easy task, because attention must be paid not only to original design solutions, but also to safety and practicality requirements.
Peculiarities
The most important decoration of the kitchen is cleanliness and order. Therefore, choose the decor that you can easily keep clean. Since there is a lot of furniture in the kitchen, it is worth using a simpler and more unpretentious decor.
Design of the kitchen area near the stove
A minimum of decorative elements should be placed next to the stove for convenience and safety. Pay more attention to the apron.
If you want to highlight the plate area, then decorate the apron in this place with interesting material, for example, artificial stone, original tiles, create a mosaic or decorate the wall with a picture that is easy to clean. In addition, additional spotlights can be used. Extra decor is not recommended, because it will quickly cover greasy spots and may deteriorate due to steam.

How to beat
You can beat the kitchen space by placing elements suitable for the theme of cooking. For example, make shelves, and place them on them beautiful jars with pasta, cereals, sweets. It is both practical and beautiful at the same time.
Another option is to buy or make your own three-dimensional letters and make a food-themed word out of them, then place it on shelves or attach it to the wall. Vinyl stickers with the image of food will help diversify the space.
If you need a place where you can easily and quickly write down recipes, then we recommend painting the wall with slate paint. A similar solution is to buy a slate board or purchase a photo frame and paint the glass with this paint.
If you have a lot of traffic jams, then make a panel out of them. It fits the theme of the kitchen, you can attach recipes, photos or notes to it. Panels can also be created from fabric, ropes with clothespins or metal mesh.

Above the hood

If the hood is installed correctly, then the ceiling above it is made out with the same materials as in the rest of the kitchen. For reliability, you can use materials that are resistant to hot steam and do not turn yellow from it over time.
