We will not advise you to make walls with bright and hang mirrors, but will tell you really little-known ways of visual expansion of space.
1 Do not be afraid of accents
You can easily hang a big chandelier who will draw attention to yourself. Often in the interiors specifically install oversize-lamps to achieve a game with space.
2 Stress High Ceilings
If, of course, you have. In this case, long straight curtains will help you, cores, fixed right under the ceiling, and a vertical pattern wallpaper. And if not - refer to the next item.
3 Put low furniture
So you make your ceilings seem higher.
4 Hang big pictures
A good reception that will not only make your room more, but also give her a more expensive look.
5 Use the deputies instead of coffee tables
Furniture in small spaces should be multifunctional. A small tray may well take on the role of a coffee table, on which the coffee mug and a vase with flowers fit.
6 Color walls in dark or saturated colors
This technique may seem unexpected, but the dark framing creates a refined background for simple lines, makes the space more stylish and impressive. Compare that it is better: just a small room in which many furniture placed, or an elegant interior in an unexpected color decision?
7 Choose furniture from plexiglas
Transparent tables from the chairs seem to disappear in the interior, and they have not come out of the decorator fashion.
8 Buy Furniture with Thin Long Legs
Refuse massive chest and walls in favor of lighter storage systems, tables and chairs at high legs, for example, in aesthetics MID-CENTURY. In the arches between the legs will peck the missing space.
9 Put the sofa opposite the window
Let those sitting on the sofa see the view open from the window, and not too close the wall.
10 Get the invisible shelves
They are much better than shelves with fasteners in visual saving space. As you might notice, if you can refuse from something in a small apartment, you need to do it.
11 Get rid of visual noise
There should be no mess on open shelves and racks! The color scheme must be respected in storage. Multicolored items are better to hide in the same boxes and baskets, and books can be turned off to the viewer.
12 Add Prints in the style of op-art
The use of patterns in the style of Maunitsa Escher spreads the boundaries of the room and attracts attention. Simplified option - tile with zigzags on the floor: it visually lengthes the room, which looks good in the bathroom or corridor. Geometric 3D prints can also be used on curtains, in lampshades and decorative pillows. Large zigzags are also often drawn on the walls.
