Show Leg

When you are furnishing a little area, concentrate your radar with legs that are exposed. Maintaining open space between floor and furnishings is a little design idea with big advantages; it may mean simply baring a bit’s stems instead of hiding them behind upholstery or bedding. Prior to purchasing your next sofa, bed or vanity, think about the aesthetic rewards of those leggy options.

By some criteria, this living area may be considered on the side. But contemporary furniture avoids entirely that feeling with exposed legs. Notice the way the armchair’s design is reflective of a typical sturdy build, yet when compared with the thin legs of these tables and sofa, it seems balanced instead of bulky.

A design that includes only furniture together with bare legs feels complicated and breezy. The eye can identify a constant path through the space, resulting in a open sensation even though the space is completely furnished.

Furniture raised off the ground helps the eye concentrate on other different features — like an incredible city view.

A four-poster bed can offer an atmosphere of luxury to a space but can also be visually demanding. Let it stand tall without the bulk by deciding on a design which features lengthy legs, and be sure that your bedding doesn’t fall under the framework.

The same goes for furnishing your eating area with a banquette. Instead of deciding on a built-in that extends to the ground, go with a freestanding bench raised on legs to provide a lot roomier appeal.

If you are dying for additional counter space in your small kitchen but dread a island will cramp your space, consider one with legs. You’ll achieve an excess work station without the visual volume.

An island on thighs also works nicely if you are attempting to fit an eating area in a bigger kitchen. Additional furnishings bulk up a space generally, but they’ll work if you decide on leggy pieces.
