Having a sunroom in your home can provide you with a secluded space to enjoy the outdoors without all the negative consequences. Sunrooms are typically thought to only be enjoyable during the spring and summer months, but furnished correctly, a sunroom can be enjoyed throughout every season. Furnishing a sunroom may seem daunting, but we have gathered some tips to help make sunroom decorating invigorating.
1- Maximize The Sunlight With The Help Of Furniture
The biggest reason to install a sunroom is to soak up the sun’s rays and get some extra Vitamin D. Furnishing your sunroom in order to soak up the most natural light possible during every month of the year is the best way to furnish a sunroom. Before you determine where to place furniture, sit in every corner of the room to determine where you feel the most comfortable and have the best view.
When designing your sunroom, you can also utilize reflective materials to help extend the sunlight throughout the space. Mirrors, gold accents, or shiny furniture will bounce light around the space, making it appear bigger.
2- Upgrade To Multi-Use Storage
Using your sunroom during a variety of seasons, your storage will need to adapt to your different needs. Sunrooms can be multifunctional spaces when they are designed with all seasons in mind. Installing cabinets or chests will protect your items from temperature fluctuations or humidity. You can also design these storage options to be decorative and add to the space. Add plants, lights, or decorative items to these storage areas to make them feel cohesive.
3- Balance Functionality And Style
Any home space needs to balance your personal style while still being functional. A functional space can still show stunning pieces and textures, but still be useable for all people. Choosing furniture that is practical but still complements the space is a balance every homeowner will have to find. You can experiment with varying textures, colors, and styles to find something that looks pleasing but is cozy as well.
4- Add In Plant Life
One of the benefits of a sunroom is feeling like you are immersed in nature, without actually being outdoors. Adding living items to the interior of your sunroom can help extend this experience. This is also a great opportunity to showcase your personality by putting the plants in colorful plants or hangers.
5- Add Some Personal Touches Or Seasonal Items
If your sunroom is going to be used all year round, it can be beneficial to include some seasonal or holiday items. This will help your sunroom feel like your own without too much effort. Seasonal decorations or personal collections can connect your home design to your sunroom decor.
6- Keep The Floors Warm
Even though a sunroom is enclosed, the floors can get chilly in the winter and fall seasons. Adding rugs or some carpeting to the space can increase the temperature of the sunroom and keep you warmer while spending time in your sunroom. Low-pile rugs are typically suggested for furnishing a sunroom because they help warm up the floors and can trap some of the dust and dirt before it gets in your home. These rugs are easy to vacuum and clean to keep your sunroom tidy.
