So, you’ve finally moved in the final box into your brand new Indianapolis apartment and you’re ready to start unpacking and settling in. Before you open that first box, you should take a look around and decide on a few big decorating decisions so you don’t have to move everything around twice. Here are some essential questions you should ask yourself before you get going.
First, take a few minutes and decide where you want to put the television. This may seem like a no-brainer at first, but you likely have more options than you think. The most common choice is a corner slant so that the screen faces out into the entire living room. This can be a good choice if you have room to waste, but most of us don’t. Cornering anything in your apartment wastes huge amounts of space, so try to avoid it at all costs. Also, make sure you take into account window glare before you plunk the television down in one particular area.
Next, try to imagine the foot traffic in your apartment and how difficult it will be for everyone to get around. You don’t want people having to stumble around to get to where they need to go, so make sure you take walking paths into consideration before you unpack.
Finally, if you live in a building made of concrete and not wood, you may not be able to pound nails in every wall, so make sure you have alternate methods of hanging pictures or other art from the walls instead of nails.
