As well as being a place where two sides or edges meet, by definition a corner is an area that’s secluded and feels remote. But it doesn’t have to be. In our homes, and living areas especially, corners need not be left bare and empty and, indeed, they shouldn’t be - these dead zones tend to suck the energy out of a room. Take some inspiration and create a refreshed and purposeful nook that adds colour, life and functionality to your living room.
1. Turn the corner with a modular sofa
L-shaped or modular-style sofas are useful in living areas, especially when there are awkward corners with which to contend. Most furniture stores selling modular sofas allow you to choose their orientation, and many sofas can be customized to fit your exact layout.Modular sofas are the preferred choice for many people because they can make the best use of a space. Just make sure the sectionals can fit through all your doors, and up any stairs as they tend to be quite blocky and bulky
2. Bring in some tall greenery
If you have windows forming a corner in your living room and you don’t want to block the light or limit the view, why not try a lush tall plant? The greenery helps create a softness without being a completely solid element that will appear too heavy. The plant will love the natural light and it is a great option for apartment dwellers or if you don’t have a backyard bring the outdoors in.
3. Tailor make the corner with custom joinery
An investment yes, but creating custom joinery in a corner space, or where the walls end and windows begin, allows for a fabulously functional solution in an otherwise tricky area. By using the vertical space you add extra storage, and you can decide to have open shelving, to hide your things away in cupboards, or have a combination of both.
Insert a floor lamp in the corner
Floor lamps are great because they provide that task or mood lighting you need in a living space and don’t take up much room. Plugged in to the corner, a floor lamp can reach over your sofa to help the living area feel more like its own zone; be more upstanding and shoot light upwards; or feature a semi-transparent shade that creates a soft glow and ambiance. The options are endless.A floor lamp can be tucked into the smallest of spaces. Just be wary of the shade height and position, so you don’t bang your head every time you get up or sit down.
5. Maximise space
Corners can end up as voids and dead zones, so make sure you are creating a functional space here, especially if you’re living in a small apartment. A recessed wall has been put to good use in this corner, with overhead open shelves and a petite chair. A great spot for guitar practice with your friends and family.
