What with their plush rugs, comfy cushions, sleek furnishings and spot on colour schemes, the best space to emulate is always that of a luxury hotel. Over the years, these hotels also boast a plethora of small space solutions, which you can employ into your own residence.
Swede chic

When Scandinavian styles are mentioned, images of white and wood elements are first conjured. Give the Nordic style a chic facelift by painting your walls in pastel shades and outfitting your space with complementary furnishings.
Speakeasy

Reminiscent of the speakeasy bars found in Prohibition-era New York, this residence plays home to leather furnishings and vintage embellishments. Though the generous wine rack and a gorgeous chandelier serve to enhance the olde worlde vibes, a floating bar counter introduces a modern twist.

Strike a balance between modern and vintage looks. Colour one of your walls in a vivid tone and complement them with classic shapes, cushions and paintings. Update your traditional ceiling fans by pairing them up with contemporary black track lights.
Mad Men concept

Who says you can’t draw inspiration from your favourite TV shows? Borrow elements and tweak them to suit your preferences. Take for instance, this Mad Men-inspired crib which features leather seats, concrete screed surfaces, exposed conduits and plush rugs.
