6 5 I recommend large rugs for small spaces. It helps define the space and makes it appear larger.

Dual purpose and adjustable furniture is also a must. Having furni- ture that is flexible will insure that it fits your needs at any given point. These pouffes are excellent, extra seating for when guests visit and can add a pop of color to your home décor. Choose furniture with a higher leg for small spaces. When the furniture is off the ground it’s a better sight line and makes the room appear larger. Bar carts provide extra storage, look stylish and can be tucked away when not in use. Plants are also important especially for condos that are high off the ground. Despite all of the windows, you lose touch with nature – your view becomes a sea of metal and glass. Plants help to warm up a space and create life up in the sky. FLOR, www.flor.com I love using these carpet tiles. They come in a variety of patterns and colors and are easy to put down.
