TODAY'S TIP FOR APARTMENT STAGING AND SELLING:
MINIMALISM?
BEFORE STAGING:
When staging an apartment to sell, minimalism should not be confused with minimizing. This room is so stripped down that it is devoid of any personality or interest. Although simply eliminating some furnishings and decluttering an apartment is effective in opening up a space, it fails to spark the imagination of a potential buyer. A sterile looking space will leave most people out in the cold, instead of inside a warm, new home.
AFTER STAGING:
After adding a small desk, the bedroom becomes more than just a place to sleep. Decorating with color pops, wall hangings, and organic elements, like these easy care, succulent plants or fresh cut flowers, creates warmth and life. And never underestimate the power of good lighting!
