The lighting
In an apartment of this size it is important that there is light and, especially if the arrangement of the rooms tends to punish some from this point of view, we must intervene. Specifically, we might think of create openings in the walls, where possible, to let natural light pass between the rooms. Another idea is create continuity with glass doors in the living area or, even better, hypothesize an open space living area, where the kitchen opens to the living room. In these cases, the light becomes special!
We do not forget the use of artificial light. Its power it goes always integrated e studied for our home.

The kitchen
The kitchen environment, be it an open space or separated from the living room, is one of the rooms that we use the most every day and for this reason it must be organized in the best possible way. If we have little space available to insert a table, we can assume a central peninsula where to cook and eat or a usual shelf support.
If, on the other hand, we have an open space, we can think with greater freedom: we identify how much space is needed for the living room and how much for the kitchen. We can imagine an L-shaped kitchen or a traditional one, provided that the suspended furniture does not have an excessively intrusive thickness in the room that limits the space for mobility.

The livingroom
So far we have talked about living and open space, without dwelling on the space it needs. Certainly a reflection on the use must be made what we will do with this room: relaxation, fun, playing with children, home working, reception area for guests and so on.
For each of these uses, of course, it will be necessary adapt our needs in terms of space and choice of furnishings. Trivially, this choice involves the introduction of a sofa rather than armchairs; the height of the central table and the floor lamp.
If we want a living room equipped for entertainment, the advice is to insert a wall unit that contains the TV, books and all the accessories of interest. If, however, this room does not enjoy great space and airiness, the advice is not to insert a piece of furniture as large as the wall, but to alternate between resistant shelves and hanging the TV on the wall. This will help a lot to space the gaze and not to create a stuffy environment.
The bathroom
We arrive at the most important room in the house: when we furnish a house of 80 square meters we cannot neglect the bathroom. The size will certainly be contained, for this we must equip ourselves in furnishing it following some clever tricks:
- paint the walls with Light colors;
- choose a few functional furnishings;
- to insert mirrored surfaces to increase the perception of space;
- use ssurfaces and transparent containers.
To embellish everything we can insert some plants that resist the microclimate of the bathroom, to make the room more pleasant and welcoming.
Bedroom
The room where we relax plays an important role, therefore, where possible, it is better to leave a large space around the bed, which is always the real protagonist of the room.
If there isn’t much space, the advice is to opt for a wardrobe that does not reach up to the ceiling, to avoid the suffocating effect, and to opt for shelves on the side walls, which manage to contain what we need without invading the eye. For small rooms it is the use of light and never bright colors is recommended, in order not to disturb sleep; pastel colors are ideal.
