The key to staging a condo is
choosing multi-functional furniture.
For example, a den could function
as a guest bedroom with a stylish
futon that doubles as a bed.
Beyond the furniture choices,
using a cohesive color palette
is essential so that every space
connects visually. In this space, we
opted for a monochromatic color
scheme with just a few pops of
color throughout the space to add
interest without overwhelming
the small condo. - Heather Cook, www.

SMALL SPACES
Home staging experts share tips for decorating a condo or small space.
When choosing pieces for a condo, it is important to keep scale in mind. Smaller
furniture pieces will allow the space to feel larger and more open. In this space, we
used condo sized furniture and focused on pieces with legs to show more floor
space and pieces with mirrored finishes to reflect more light around the space.
Keeping accents to a minimum also allows the room to shine without looking too
cluttered. - Amanda Sheilds, www.mintconditionstaging.com
When working with a condo, you need to be able
to think outside the box to maximize the use of
space. This condo did not offer enough space for
both a living and dining area so we used a console
table behind the condo sized sofa which doubles
as both dining space and extra work surface for the
kitchen. - Liliana McInerney, www.upstagebylili.com
When working towards visually
enlarging a small space, we must
look past traditional design rules.
Painting an accent wall in a deep
dark hue and contrasting it against
light, almost stark walls will create
the illusion of depth.
