  1. 5 professional tips to make your space look bigger

    The decor of a room plays a huge role in determining how big or small it looks. 

    Here are some tried and tested tips to make your space look bigger:

    1. Light paint

    Ditch the darks and embrace the light colors for your walls. The general rule is that the lighter the wall paint, the more open your space looks. The darker the shades on the walls, the more closed and small the space becomes. And it really isn’t hard getting furniture to go along with light walls. You have regular furniture like couches, coffee tables, chairs, and even special high-utility furniture like ottomans and hidden TV lift cabinets available in many colors and textures. So, let there be light!

    2. Limit the number of furniture pieces

    If your space is small, try not to fill it up with too much stuff. Practically speaking, stick to the basic furniture and leave enough space for traffic flow. That means having the regular couches and center table and maybe one multi functional piece of furniture like a hidden TV lift cabinet

  2. 5 biggest interior design mistakes to avoid

    There are some design ideas that are so commonly implemented that you don’t even realize that they are actually mistakes that are limiting the aesthetics of your space. 

    Check out the 4 most basic mistakes people do:

    • Pushing furniture against the walls- finished backs

    Most of us feel that pushing the furniture all the way against the walls makes the space look bigger. Well, the truth is, that it makes the room look rather dull, with a sterile vacuum in the middle! That is absolutely no good! Instead, if you bring the furniture towards the middle of the room, you'll have a more inviting space, one that welcomes conversations. 

    One quick tip to avoid having to push the furniture to the walls is to have finished backs. That is why we have an entire range of hidden TV lift cabinets that are fully finished. You can place such hidden TV lift cabinets anywhere. The same goes for other pieces of furniture too.

    • Having an inappropriate rug (color and size-wise)

    If you thought that the function

  3. 4 quick tips on how to choose furniture for your home

     Buying furniture is challenging. There’s just so much choice and no amount of market research seems enough.  Here are a few tips that can make your task a little easier:

    Consider the general aesthetics- Will the piece fit in well with your plans? If you are using the new piece of furniture as a focal point, it should stand out, rather than merge into the background. If you are looking for something that is in continuation with the rest of the decor, consider the colors and textures to make sure that it doesn’t stand out too conspicuously. Some pieces of furniture are highly versatile, like a hidden TV lift cabinet that can add value to any room, simply because it is available in such a large range that you only need to figure out where to place it, and the hidden TV lift cabinet will lend itself to your decor. A woody hidden TV lift cabinet can quietly hide the TV, while a hidden TV lift cabinet with metallic accents can add some jazz to the room.

  5. DIY TV lift mechanism project - cool restoration of a vintage radio bar

    Family heirlooms are treasures and more often than not, we don't know what to do with them. But Jonathan at Jonathan Katz-Moses knew exactly what to do with the old vintage radio bar (that has been in the family for over 90 years) and a modern heavy-duty TV lift mechanism. Well, he put the two together and came up with a creative idea - house a secret self-raising bar in the radio. The project has turned out amazing. You can check out the tutorial here

    The most common problems with family heirlooms:

    1. Takes up room- Of course family heirlooms have their own place in life but the truth is that they still take up room and they are not necessarily in top-notch condition. More often than not a family heirloom can pretty much end up looking like vintage junk in the house.
    2. Zero utility- Something that is an heirloom is evidently old and chances are that it has lost its utility completely. For instance, the vintage radio bar, with its age showing,  just isn’t in sync with the decor. It needs

  6. How to build a TV lift cabinet to go with your decor

    So, you’ve got a beautiful log cabin. It’s your go-to vacation spot, but man, do you miss the TV there! Suppose you do get a TV there, it’ll be an beautiful combination. So, what do you do? You try finding a solution to the possible issues. 

    The trouble that a TV can cause are:

    1. Clash with the decor-  Sleek, modern TVs, and rustic log cabins just don’t go together. While the cabin is old-world charming, a TV is a modern blackhole and at best an eyesore from the decor point of view. Completely ruins the look of the place.
    2. Ruining the mood- When you are out on an adventure vacation and want to spend quality time with family, without being bothered by devices, a TV is the last thing you want playing in the background. 

    No, you don’t have to compromise on the decor or on your TV time. You just need to get smart, and get a hidden TV lift cabinet, or get craftsy like Kyle from HallStickFurniture and build a custom hidden TV lift cabinet using a hidden TV lift mechanism. You can watch the
