Then this article is especially for you Do you think that you have tried everything to , but are still unhappy with the result? Most likely, there is still a way out! Today we will tell you about some tricks that will help you make it visually larger.
1. The Dark Side
Everyone has long been accustomed to the fact that visuallyexpand the room. But few people know that the space can be increased by painting one of the walls in a dark color. Such an accent in a light room visually moves the wall deeper into the room, making the room seem more spacious. Such a wall does not necessarily have to be almost black. Choose the darkest and most saturated shades of blue, gray, green.
2. Mirrors
Mirrors reflect and multiply light.In a narrow hallway, mirrors can be hung on the side walls. If you place them opposite each other and illuminate them with side light, the room will visually expand. A mirror can be hung in the living room or dining room. This way, it will reflect not only the light, but also the festively set table or the mood of the guests.
3. Prints
If you like bright, eye-catching prints,try to use them with caution. In a small room, such a pattern will be appropriate on a pillow, blanket or table lamp. At the same time, it is better to choose more restrained colors for the rest of the furniture (table, sofa, armchairs).
4. Glass table
Have you ever noticed a glass table?No wonder! Sometimes it takes more than one look to notice it, which is what makes it good for small spaces. Such a table allows you to look at the room through it and does not “take up” precious space.
Our opinion:— Modern manufacturers, in addition to transparent tables, suggest paying attention to small transparent chests. They can be used as a coffee table and at the same time solve the problem of storing some things, such as magazines or books.
5. Additional lighting
6. Unity of color
There is another trick that will help you do thisthe room visually larger. Buy curtains or a bookcase (or ideally both) in the same color as the walls. They will merge into one solid object and will not break the room into parts. Our opinion: - Floor-to-ceiling curtains "pull" the room upward. Try not to hang short curtains. They can significantly reduce an already tiny room.
7. Small furniture
Instead of huge, majestic chairs, place small chairs and poufs around the room. This way, you can increase the number of seats without cluttering the space.
8. Carpet
Ditch the small, modest rugsbenefit of a huge carpet that covers the entire area of the room. A person's gaze will intuitively be drawn to the edges of the carpet, which will "stretch" your room along its entire perimeter.
