Overview
- Ever thought about the sweet, sweet freedom you would have if you moved out of home?
- Are you excited about styling and decorating your new place? Here's our advice! 👇
When moving out of home, you will feel all types of emotions. You might feel a little sad saying goodbye to your ‘rents, excited for a new environment or just keen to make your bed whenever the heck you want (sorry, mum). No matter how you’re feeling, moving out of home is an invigorating experience.
We know that moving can be a little hard - especially when it comes down to the nitty-gritty stuff like bills, bonds or buying furniture. What if we told you that you don’t need to stress about all that? If you’re someone that creates a Pinterest board for future house plans or always jumps to the exciting stuff, here are five easy ways to upgrade your space when you make the move:
Have a communal hangout area
Whether you’re living with roommates or in a studio apartment, a hangout area is key to unwind! No matter how small or big your space is, a couple of cushions for your guests or coffee table books won’t go astray. Luckily, a night-in at student accommo like Scape have courtyards, rooftop terraces, lobbies and lounges to chill whenever you please!
Plants
Plants or any greenery can help boost your mood, creativity and productivity. While there are some health benefits to indoor plants, artificial plants can help brighten and liven up your space too!
Vision board
To manifest good vibes or your successful career post-uni, you’re going to want a vision board to remind you of your goals. Or, if you’re moving away from family or friends, a good way to remind you of home is to pin some photos on a cork or pinboard. It can be as cute or colourful as you want, while showing off your personality.
Plates and mugs
There’s nothing like moving into a new place, and setting out to do your first shop. The good news is that it does not have to be expensive! Go to your local thrift, charity or second-hand store and pick up some pretty groovy utensils and kitchenware. Don’t worry about the big stuff either - at Scape, all your essentials like a fridge, stovetop, kettle and toaster are all included and ready-to-go!
Fill your space with sentimental or exciting pieces
If you have a killer vinyl collection, love video and board games or enjoy creating art - show it off! This is your space after all. Decorate or style your place with things that make you happy. This doesn’t just have to be in your own room - add elements all over your space, within reason, of course!
A few extra touches will elevate your space and make it feel like a home - where you can create memories, and some of the best times of your life!
