5 Ways To Add Fun Elements In Small Spaces

If you pride yourself on having a fun, eclectic side to your personality, then you’ll surely want to translate that in your home interiors. Trouble is, eclectic aesthetics usually need a bold interior canvas to feel truly majestic. But since the typical urban landscape of Singapore only allows small spaces, here are a few tips that you can color your homes fun and unique:

1. Cushions and area rugs

These days, you can find cushions in almost any style and area rugs in every kind of pattern. You can combine and contrast both elements to get what you need. The under-sea themed rug and food-inspired cushions in this image are the perfect example.

2. Simple backdrop + bold accents

This way, whenever you introduce an eclectic piece of furniture or accessory, it’ll stand out more than ever. Note that if the backdrop is light, your furnishings can be vividly colored a la yellow couch, blue area rug, or even a multi-colored accent chair.

3. Use plants and metal accents

These are especially impactful as the vivid green of both natural and artificial plant leaves naturally complement the gold of all sorts of trinkets and baubles really well.

4. Be choosy with your baubles
