Corner space living

A big challenge in decorating your home is determining the proper way to decorate the corners of a room. Every house has awkward spaces and finding a way to integrate the corners into the whole design can be tricky. We here at Risenn have compiled a few tips and ideas to efficiently decorate a neglected corner in your home.

One of the best and easiest solutions to a corner space is to use a large piece such as a mirror or salvaged door against the wall to add architectural interest to your space. Our Zeta Cheval Mirror is perfect and will give the illusion of a larger space. Use these as a shelf and storage space to display items for a more relaxed and homely look and feel.

Adding vertical interest is key for filling a corner space and high-back chairs are perfect for this look. Place a decorative high-back chair and create a reading corner in a bedroom and display patterned throws and cushions to create a perfectly cosy sitting area. Our range of cushions and throws available at Risenn will suit any décor style. This corner look also works well accompanied with a side table and lamp for a more elegant and sophisticated feel that can work in a living room setting.  Find a corner table that is both stylish and comfortable, such as our Banks Occasional Table or our Caymen Decorative Stand for a more art deco look. 





A quick way to accessorize a corner of a living area with some decorative art pieces for added drama and elegance in your home. Place a large vase in the style of your décor, such as our Acacia Bowl or Round Planter to add some heights and visual interest to a boring or dull space. Risenn’s Horn Decorator on Stand is also a great piece for added style and impact.

Displaying wall art or framed photographs is a fail proof way to spruce up any corner.  Hang framed family photos on the adjoining walls to create an intimate space and a personal feel to the room. Not all frames need to match, so mix things up with hints of colours  and varied arts but keep space between pieces similair for a cohesive look. Risenn has a range of wall art in different sizes and styles that paired together would add depth and interest to an unnoticed area.




Lastly, if you are daring enough an indoor garden is a beautiful and simple way to revamp a corner. A large houseplant or series of plants are attractive and visually neutral so they will fit in with every décor palette. Vary plant shades, heights and textures by adding tall plants and smaller ones together for pleasing composition.
