City Living

Yesterday I was laughing about how much my life has changed in 2 months. I now get incredibly annoyed if I have to drive anywhere. My new gym is 3 miles away and I hate it. Mind you, while I was living in New Hampshire, I would hightail it 40 minutes to the closest/best hot yoga studio 5 times a week and think nothing of it. 

Putting together my new room has also been a challenge. I guess much less space is a small price to pay for living in the heart of Denver. In New Hampshire I had a lot of space (1500 sq feet!) and now have just one room. A lot of the furniture I had in my old place just won't do here because it is far too large but i am finding I am using the same general approach to design my space.

  • Scale. Large rooms warrant large furniture and pieces. Small rooms need smaller pieces. 
  • Layer. Layer. Layer. 
  • Do not attempt to complete it all at once.Take your time to find what works.
  • Organization is always key.
  • Optimize the space for your needs.
  • Make the colors work for the size of the room.
  • And of course, create a space YOU LOVE!
