Transform Your Space with Psychologically Refreshing Apartment Hacks

Have you ever walked into an apartment that smells like freshly baked cookies? The smell of baked goods triggers a sense of nostalgia and comfort making you feel more at home. Similarly playing calming music or displaying neutral colors can have a calming effect and create a relaxing atmosphere. When setting up a room property managers use a technique called anchoring. Anchoring is where a property manager places an object in a certain spot to suggest a specific use of the room. By doing this the property manager stimulates the renter's imagination and creates a vision of their ideal living space. Other psychological tricks that property managers use include emphasizing natural light by opening blinds and curtains using mirrors to create the illusion of more space and reducing clutter to make a room appear more spacious.
