Visual receptions to increase space
Often the size of the living room cuts the redevelopment when, turning odnushku in the dvu, the owners make a second isolated room in case of a night visiting guest. But even eight square meters will not "put pressure", if you use the main focus with the visual expansion of space: create a neutral color of the concrete interior in the style of scandy, minimalism or eco.

Add volume is needed not only stitching, but also swept. The ceiling is raised high smooth floor lamps, chandeliers and lamps, long curtains, vertical lines in accessories, on the doors and walls.

In a pair with a ceiling, the floor will play their role in expanding the room. It is better to leave it as open as possible. Carpets are allowed, but not throughout the area.

Competently selected photographic windows can make a miracle and spread the walls in a small room. Especially if they are panoramic: depicting a landscape, urban streets, sky. And if you beat the photo wallpaper with the effect of 3D, then the space will become almost limitless.

Among the basic recommendations of designers for small premises - as much light as possible. Better, if there are several sources: natural light from windows, ceiling chandelier, flooring, or sconce, table lamps, candles, point backlight at the corners.

Another way to deceive the look and give the scope of a modest square - hang mirrors or install a mirror panel.
Specialists have several Lifehakov on this. From the panel advise to remove large furniture, paintings, installations. Otherwise, reflecting these items "cluster" living room. If you have nowhere to move, it needs to be located close to the mirror wall.
Ideally, the mirror should reflect free space - then it will increase the room almost twice. The same effect will be achieved if the "lens" of the mirror will include light sources, including the window (it should be on the right or left). Mirrors may not take off the wall, but only its part and highlighting the LEDs.

Reflect the objects and light, giving the interior with an extra depth, and polished cabinets and glossy ceilings are also capable.

Furniture for a small living room
In the mini-living room, only compact furniture with simple lines will be in harmoniously, on elegant legs or suspended, as if soaring. Large backs, bulk armrests, solid bases will eat "air". Well, if the furniture is multifunction and can transform, fold and fold out. It can be a sliding sofa or table-stand. And instead of chairs on tiny squares, it is recommended to use stools or puffs.

Accessories for a small living room
If strict asceticism does not like it, you can and need to be left from the canons, because we create a relax area to be rejoiced. The abundance of textures and colors in the finish will not be a sentence for a small living room, if the items are made in related shades, and the design will remain restrained.

In this context, sin does not stop on accessories in more detail. Of course, without them the room will seem spacious, but at the same time and more boring. Pictures and posters can perform the function of vertical decoration and add height, especially if there are large rectangular frames and in color scheme fit into the situation.

Partitions in the living room
Separate attention deserves division of a small room into two functional zones. Since it needs several "squares" to take off under a bed or kitchen, the area, which is without the weight of gold, decreases catastrophically. You can not raise a deaf wall, because you need to make it easier to ease the interior. The position will save the partition transmitting lights (even from the floor to the ceiling) of wooden rails, matte plastic, glass, or light racks, beautiful curtains.

Well, and the classic version with a attic bed will also create an isolated seating area on the first tier of the room.

When the house has the second floor, the living room is often equipped in the room where the staircase is located. Place the sofa under it, add pillows and blankets, hang the lamps, and on the opposite wall TV - and from such a cozy corner will not want to get out.
