How to make a windowless kitchen look brighter nicer.
Small windowless dining room.
Decorating small lounge connected to dining room.
Windowless kitchens are a decorating challenge when you want to create a bright airy space for cooking and eating.
It is possible however.
As the name implies a windowless living room is the hub of a house where there is no single window installed.
Some rooms are simply windowless.
I received so many terrific ideas comments thank you.
Since the windows are eliminated the room can be dark because the natural light is not able to brighten up the room.
Earlier in the month i had wrote about my dilemma in decorating my small windowless dining room that now functions more as a pass thru than a dining room.
Small kitchens such as 8x10 feet one designed for a single cook can still be highly functional.
I like the the floor plans as they are drawn because you do get light into the living room in a pretty straight shot but on the majority of design shows where there is a an apartment the kitchen it at the entry with no widows and the room opens up to a dining living room view.
Prompted by a suggestion from beth of chinoiserie chic i ve been giving alot of thought lately to the power of scenic wallpaper to visually expand a windowless space.
My dining room is in the middle of my house which is a terrace and therefore has no windows.
Which apartment are you considering and what do the windows look out over and how high up are you going to be.
This space s open ended design and location between the dining room and back porch make it highly functional for large gatherings.
While the walls are light introducing dark peacock blue on the chair seats and drapes brings dimension to the space proving that dark colors have a place in small.
This is what a 15k kitchen before after looks like.
It could be a guest room in a basement a hallway powder room or even an interior bathroom or kitchen in an apartment or townhouse that lacks a window the trick to decorating a dark windowless room is to create the illusion that there s a window in the space then add in plenty of the right lighting along with light and airy furniture and fabrics.
It s victorian and there was originally a window out onto the side return but having extended this has now gone.
Therefore a windowless living room may look and feel so uninviting if you.
Dress up a small dining room with an interesting wall treatment such as board and batten or wainscoting.
I love my pre war brooklyn ny apartment for its original trim work weathered wood floors and gracious nine plus foot ceilings.
The wood floors help tie the kitchen to the large dining room and keep the space from feeling boxy.
In this dining room white wainscoting extends two thirds of the way up the wall and is topped with a band of light blue.
This kind of room design always becomes a popular option which is chosen by many homeowners.
Remember for every wall that does not have a window on it there is more room for counter space and storage.
