You normally find at least one small room in every home. Following are tips that will create more room within a small space.
1. Use similar colors and textures
Use continuous color including the blind so it doesn't distract from the openness the window provides. Blinds with neutral colors that blends into wall colors work the best.
2. Mirrors give the allusion of space
A large mirror on a wall reflects light which will make the room look larger by creating the illution of doubling the room.
3. Use window treatments to frame a scenic photo or piece of art
Do not use several small pieces of art as they tend to break up the room while making it feel smaller.
4. Use window blinds to control light
The brighter the room the spacious it feels. Windows make a small room feel big. Use a window blind that allows light in during sunny times and conserve energy when temperature cools down. Translucent cellular shades or sheer roller shades allows diffuse light to pass through.
5. Think Clean
The more clutter you have in a room the smaller it feels. Keep only what is essential in a small room.
