How do you redecorate a room? inspirational ideas and tips

Redecorating a room can be a great way to make it more usable or to give it a whole new feel. However, regardless of our motivation - whether we want to completely redecorate or make only minor modifications - we can do it at a really low cost. How do you redecorate a small room, or even an entire house, without spending practically a penny?

Often, a small change is enough to give a space we spend a lot of time in a completely different atmosphere. Along with rearranging the furniture or moving accessories, we will introduce new energy into the interior, which will have a positive effect on our mood. A table closer to the kitchen or a desk near a window can make the furniture more practical and our daily routine more enjoyable.

Placement matters. How do I redecorate a room?

Before rearranging the furniture in a room, it is worth paying attention to the functions of its different zones. It may be that simply swapping chairs and desks can make a room more comfortable. A piece of furniture next to the wall can be exposed in the middle of the room, creating an interesting visual division and extra space.

Redecorating your home is also a good time to repurpose certain rooms. Too much light in the bedroom? There's nothing stopping this one from now being a home office for creative work. The guest room is too big and stands empty most of the time? Maybe it's a good idea to turn it into our kid' s play kingdom.

However, before deciding on such a modification, pay attention to the dimensions of each room and the location of doors and windows. In this way, the redecoration carried out will prove to be an effective way of not only improving the aesthetics, but also increasing the usability of the interior. Nothing is more demotivating than having to move furniture from one room to another again just because it proves impossible to put it in a new place.

When rearranging the furniture, we may come across empty, unpainted walls that were previously covered by large wardrobes or spacious chests of drawers. So this is a good opportunity to repaint the room and thus refresh the interior. You can opt for traditional paint or protect your walls with Kerradeco decorative panels, which, thanks to their resistance to dirt and damage, are also suitable for demanding rooms. Remember the effect of colours. Light colours will reflect light, making the space appear larger. Darker tones, on the other hand, will make the interior feel more elegant and cosy.

When creating a new décor, it is important to create the right atmosphere. This is created not only by furniture and decoration, but also by well-placed lamps and appropriately selected fittings. In a room that is used for relaxation, a soft central light and small lamps for reading are ideal. In a children's room, it is advisable to additionally choose directional lighting to support various activities. Therefore, before redecorating, check whether the layout of the sockets makes it possible to connect the chosen lighting.

Redecorating a room within reach - rearranging modules

The living room is a room where we spend a lot of time and where communal feasting often drags on into the night. Not surprisingly, we want this room to be comfortable not only for the members of the household, but also for invited guests. For this reason, the thought of redecorating this very interior often comes to mind.

Modular lounge furniture makes it easier to make changes. Those from the Conffi collection can be adapted to our needs and rhythm of life in a moment. A chaise longue and two armchairs can easily be transformed into a comfortable sofa with footrests, and a wooden shelf in place of one of the armrests can cease to be a bookcase in favour of a mini snack bar. A piece of furniture built in its own right will also become a bed for overnight guests if necessary.

A quick rearrangement of the living room can also be achieved thanks to other modular upholsteries from the Chill, Pelo or Modus series. The relatively lightweight pieces can be rearranged freely, changing their arrangement whenever we wish. The metamorphosis of the relaxation area will be facilitated by a set of coffee tables, which will work just as well together as separately.

Sometimes it is worth going back to the carefree days of childhood and remembering how easily we could create houses and other structures out of building blocks, changing their size a dozen times in one game. Nowadays, nothing stands in the way of creating real furniture in a similar way. This is made possible by the Balance collection, which consists of elements resembling real bricks. The Balance collection is made up of pieces that look like real blocks, so you can first create a TV cabinet and then turn it into a wide bookcase. When we redecorate a room, we simply expand our beloved piece of furniture by adding new modules.

A tentative move. Ideas for redecorating a small room

A small space is a real design challenge. If, in addition, the room has bevels or large windows, it may turn out that there is only one layout that will allow us to function on a daily basis. In such a situation, to change the character of the interior a little, let's choose small modifications. Simply rotating a table or changing the orientation of a double-sided bookcase can give the space a new expression. A refreshed window sill or replacing ornaments on a chest of drawers will also help.

If you're redecorating a room, you can also use the walls to put shelves on the wall and avoid cluttering the floor. Hanging shelves will allow you to display your favourite things and bring a breath of fresh air into a small room. To help us create a new arrangement, we can use the VOXBOX programme, in which we can visualise countless interior design ideas before putting them into practice.

If you have a slightly larger budget, you might consider replacing some of your furniture, such as a support table or armchair. Move a previously used piece of furniture to another room or give it a new lease of life. Even a seemingly small change of furnishings will bring new energy into the interior. However, if you don't feel like shopping, all you can do is refresh the look of your previously used furniture. Think about replacing the handles or legs. This is possible in the Creative and Simple collections. In the case of the latter, we can also buy new fronts to give a completely different character to a familiar piece of furniture.

When redecorating a small room, minimalism works well. Avoid superfluous elements and keep decorations simple. Choose objects of particular value to you (e.g. self-made photographs or paintings) and display them in such a way that they do not take up too much space. You can also use practical accessories such as new vases or plant holders to refresh your interior design.

To make you feel really good in your home or flat, ask yourself from time to time whether you could use a redecoration. Especially as this does not have to involve a lot of expenditure on our part. When planning to redecorate a room, it is worth keeping both aesthetic and functional aspects in mind. In this way, a new idea for the interior will not only improve our mood, but also our everyday comfort.
