Particularly increasing the compact space using furniture on legs, inconspicuous wallpaper and floor in the color of the walls.
1 monophonic color gamut
The fact that the small room is best made in bright colors, it is said in almost all the advice, but at the same time the main shades, even if they are bright, in such an interior should be quite a bit, ideally - one or two. Therefore, before repairing and decorating, select the main color, find its name on the Pantone table and at the same time write down a couple of closest shades. It simplifies the search for finishing materials. Print the selected shades on the color printer and go with them into the furniture store, behind the curtains and doors, so as not to try to determine "on the eye", as far as they fit into the interior.
2 Pure Straight Lines
The smaller the room, the easier it should be perceived. Therefore, choose a laconic furniture without unnecessary jewelry, avoid a large number of accessories on the walls. Ideal if there are no large differences in the height or bright contrast of the form and material between the furniture.
3 lack of small details
Do not rush to complement the room with a large number of small and catchy accessories. Start from some minimalism, let yourself get used to the interior and understand which accents he is missing. Perhaps a couple of well-selected trifles will be perfectly completed. But surplus will make the room overloaded and emphasized the small area. This is especially true of the windowsill - it is better to leave them empty and not to force the window.
4 Public storage
You need to be careful with open shelves and racks - they cannot be overloaded and necessary to maintain order. In addition, the rule of maintenance of a single color direction concerns them too. Therefore, if you need a bookshelf - take care of the same covers for books, it will keep their appearance and will turn into beautiful accessories.
5 Furniture on legs
Try to find furniture on legs for a small room: sofa, wardrobe, chairs. The legs make any furniture visually slightly easier, which will benefit the interior.
6 High cabinets
Oddly enough, the cabinets in the ceiling in a small space look better than the dressers and cabinets for two thirds of the room. The fact is that visually they look like a continuation of the wall, especially if they match the color with it. It is important for both the bedroom and kitchen. In addition, it will increase the volume of storage area.
7 floor in the color of the walls
If you are at the repair stage, try to pick up the flooring for the floor close to the color to the shade of the walls, for example, a light tile for a bathroom or a light tree for the bedroom. If there is no such possibility, try to find a bright carpet.
8 Wallpaper with a nonsense drawing
Choosing wallpapers, pay attention to the model with a nonsense pattern, textured. Due to the fact that there is no wide variety of colors in the interior, the room may look somewhat boring and this problem will solve the variety of textures. You can try to arrange a contrasting wall using bright wallpapers with a small infrequently repeated bright pattern, for example, in polka dot or with small flowers.
9 Correct Curtain Location
In order to visually enlarge the room, you need to increase the window and raise the ceilings. One way to do is to hang cornice for curtains above the top edge of the window. Curtains should be tissue, without unnecessary folds, slightly above the floor or just below the ceiling.
10 more light
If the room does not have enough natural light, add more additional light sources. A good option will be several well-positioned point lamps, with the ability to include lighting over different zones, for example, above the workplace and above the bed.
