Hello World! Welcome Friends! Growing up does not mean having to give up pleasurable and unrestricted pastimes like swinging from trees — as well as from the living room ceiling. Having a modern indoor swing might be as simple as connecting a piece of wood with rope or as sophisticated as an eight-swing set organized around a dining room table.
But here are some modern indoor swing concepts to get you started on converting your home into a playroom for kids of all ages.

A Volcanic Basalt Fiber Manu Nest Indoor Swing
While the form is rather conventional by now, one feature that distinguishes this specific hanging chair from others is its exceedingly uncommon material: volcanic basalt fiber. Incredibly light in weight as well as suited for both indoor and outdoor usage, and the Manu Nest chair can support up to 220kg (485 pounds) of load despite weighing only 15kg or 33 pounds.
The Necklace-type Indoor Swing
This indoor swing has an oversized beaded necklace design which is surely a conversation starter and also a fun and useful piece of furniture. It measures ten feet in length and can be adjusted to the desired elevation.
The Indoor Swing Table
If all company meetings were conducted at a Swing Table, they would be significantly less dull. Elegant and contemporary, the table suspends 8 chairs from bars embedded in a basic frame that also serves as a support for an overhead light.
The Indoor Swing That Is Shaped Like a Bentwood Book
Simple and practical, the ‘Fugle Swing’ is influenced by Scandinavian bentwood design. The designer was truly fascinated by the influences that emerged from Scandinavia over the twentieth century and wanted to bring this attraction closer to the vision of what a grownup swing could also be. The overall design was decided by the practical problem of ease and aesthetics.
Additional Interior Design Ideas For Homes Even With A Small Space
As more architects examine the potential of smaller dwellings, architects interest in optimizing small interiors is rising. According to some minimalists, living with less offers simplicity, efficiency, and a more tranquil lifestyle, enabling us to focus on what matters. Could it be that downsizing is the answer?
Regardless of your living circumstances, there are numerous techniques to create the illusion of a larger room in a tiny space. If you’re short on room, here are a few of the greatest interior design ideas for a tiny house or apartment.
Install Mirrors Opposite a Window
Mirrors are an incredibly effective technique to give the appearance of a larger room, especially when positioned immediately opposite a window. A giant circular vintage-style mirror makes a dramatic impression in the entryway of your apartment.
Don’t be Shy in Lightening Things Up
The darker the walls are, the tighter they will approach you, which again is why most of us go toward white paint – it helps spaces feel larger. The little kitchen area appears bright and large and furthermore, the absence of window curtains allows for maximum light to enter.
Choose Furniture with Legs Instead
Allowing you to see the flooring under your furniture creates the illusion of greater space, so opt for furniture with legs instead of large bulky pieces. Blogger Kate La Vie picks a sleek midcentury style couch for an area. Avoid cramming furniture against the wall – allowing it some breathing room can also help the area feel more spacious.
Try Putting Bespoke Furniture
Storage is perhaps the most important consideration when designing a tiny dwelling. If construction is not an alternative, having storage and furniture custom-made for your space enables you to maximize every possible corner, or in this scenario, a high ceiling. Having bunk beds seems to be an integral part of the house’s construction, while the storage alcoves provide ample space for displaying personal possessions.
Consider Installing Fold Out Furniture
Folding and stowing away furniture when not being used is critical for tiny house living. A wall-hung desk was built for a Malibu home and takes up no floor space. Ideal for those who work from home and wish to shut down the workplace at the end of the day.
Use Tables that can Easily be Dissembled
If the room is narrow, you may store the tables and legs separately and then reconstruct them when guests arrive. These types of tables have become so popular in France and you can put these types of tables in your home as well so that you can still have more space to spare whenever you will not need the tables because you can easily tow them away.
Coffee Tables Made of Glass
Aside from the fact that you are seeing the floor through glass or translucent furniture and it provides the illusion of more spaciousness and airiness. Additionally, this type of furnishing will provide an authentic 1970s antique glass coffee table atmosphere in your home.
Put Extendable and Foldable Dining Tables
Putting extendable dining tables gives a small apartment that much-needed flexibility. You can try the traditional drop leaf design as it is great for quick and easy entertainment transformations. It’s a classic design going all the way back to the 1950s, which means there are lots of genuine vintage versions available on the second-hand market.
Consider Installing Wall-Hung Bedside Lamps and Tables in your Bedroom
Perhaps the most covert bedside table ever? This bedroom decorating suggestion comes from the Czech site By Koczanska in which the added usage of wall-mounted nightstand lighting would save so much more space.
Put up Hanging Plants to Add Greenery in your Home
Hanging plants from the ceiling allows us to add lush foliage to your house sans needing to take over any space. This has been the home of Brisbane-born photographer and ceramicist Nicolette Johnson for whom the stunning home was highlighted on Design Sponge.
Consider Putting up a Mezzanine
Concrete developed this modest hotel room at Amsterdam’s Zoku hotel with trendy elevated sleeping space. There have been a lot of homes that are adapting to this style and have been a total space-saver.
Maximizing the space in your home will give your more room to be creative especially if having an indoor modern swing is one that is right up your alley.

Oh my goodness Kathryn, I absolutely love this post! My heart holds a special place for swings. There is just something so magical and relaxing about them. I couldn’t help but smile reading your post and thinking of the possibility of adding an indoor swing to my home. I’d really love to do that! The ones you’ve mentioned sound amazing! Do you have a favorite? The swing and room of the photo from Unsplash are incredibly charming!
I also love that you mentioned minimalism and how many are finding the gift of living with less. I’ll be honest with you, sis, I must agree. Clutter around us really does have a negative impact on our minds. A cluttered space for me absolutely equals a cluttered mind. That’s a no-go in my life as I already have a tendency to overthink anyhow! 🙂
That’s why I adore the tips you’ve shared here for brightening up the spaces we live in most. I can attest to the fact that, like you, I’ve painted a room white and stood amazed at how much larger it felt! Wow, what a difference! I did that in our kitchen here and still can’t believe the transformation. Hanging plants for bringing the beauty of the outdoors inside and reflective surfaces like mirrors or glass tables are more of my favorite techniques!
Thank you for sharing this post! It was a lot of fun to read. I pray you & yours are well. ♥
