Five Tips To Make Smaller Rooms Look Bigger

Small apartments are easier to buy and decorate because of space constraints. But if decorated in the right manner it can make constricted spaces appear larger and more spacious. The perfect color combination, lighting, and furniture can make the interiors appear larger and breath-taking.

Lighter shades and clever contrasts
Optical illusion is the secret to making the rooms appear larger and more spacious. Light colors help you do the trick by reflecting the shades and making the space appear bigger and airy. Dark colors make rooms look clumsy and smaller. For best results try using soft tones of blue, green, and white. You can also use contrasting shades which will make the walls appear slimmer.

Use the right kind of lights
Light tends to open up a space. Whether it’s natural or hung from light fixtures they can make a huge difference to your apartment. Larger windows are a good idea but if the space is limited pull the shades to allow maximum light to enter the rooms.

Uncluttered rooms increase space
An organized and tidy room in all probability will make the space seem larger than it is. Stack all the magazines and remove the pillows from the sofas and beds. The walls ideally should not contain too many pictures or paintings. It allows the lights to play up the wall colors and increase the amount of illumination. Create a focal point which will draw attention everyone’s attention by keeping the décor in the rest of the room to a minimum.

Mirrors make the rooms look larger
Mirrors are extremely useful for reflecting light and thereby making the rooms seem spacious. Place them strategically on walls or tabletops for optimum reflection.


Multifunctional furniture
Well-designed furniture can create place for more than one item. A chest that can double as a coffee table and a book cabinet is a good choice because it will not block the pathway in your room. Paint the furniture in a shade resembling the wall color to allow it to blend in thereby enhancing the amount of space.

Interior decoration is child’s play for the creative ones but others can rely on EXIN Projects to decorate their homes.
