Planning your space
Small bedroom: which storage works without crowding the room?
Under the bed, inside the wardrobe or beside the pillow: give useful belongings a place and check storage openings before adding furniture.
How should you arrange a bedroom under a sloping roof?
Bed position, routes, low storage and colour: arrange an attic bedroom around the movements its available height actually allows.
Where should you place a living room mirror to enjoy the light?
Near a window, above a sideboard or on a side wall: choose your mirror’s position by looking at what it actually reflects.
Living room curtains: which length and fabric should you choose?
Sheers, denser cloth, a floor-length drop or short curtains: choose around the window, the light you want and your everyday movements.
What size rug should you choose for your living room?
Sofa legs, armchairs, coffee table and walkways: choose a rug size around your actual seating area, then compare dimensions before buying.
How can you light a living room beyond the ceiling light?
A reading light by the armchair, a lamp on the sideboard, a softly lit wall: build your living room lighting around your habits and existing furniture.
Small hallway: how do you organise it without a console table?
Keys, coats, bags and shoes: give everyday belongings a place in a narrow hallway without adding furniture that blocks the way.
Office decoration: which wall art should you choose?
Reception areas, meeting rooms and shared workspaces: choose pictures that suit your premises without repeating the same image on every wall.
