If your apartment is not large and does not have enough free space, do not worry. Several simple techniques will help to visually expand the space. They are suitable for any room, look stylish and are not difficult to perform.
White furniture not only makes the space visually more voluminous, but also fills the room with light, therefore it is suitable for rooms where the windows face the north side.
Try to mentally change the color of the kitchen unit in this photo from white to dark and you will immediately see how much this changes the impression and hides the space.
If you are worried that white surfaces will be more easily soiled, choose smooth materials that are easy to clean.
Transparent glass accessories look light and weightless: this is a great option when you want to add more "air" to the interior.
If vases, lamps, countertops, decor are glass, the room will not give the impression of being cluttered, which is typical for compact rooms.
Light colors can visually add a few square meters to the apartment. Light walls will visually expand the room, and the floor and ceiling will make it higher.
To achieve maximum effect, make sure that all parts of the room are bright.
This does not mean that everything in the room must be of the same color - experiment with shades, not forgetting about the task at hand.
Furniture on legs seems to float above the floor, which makes the space more airy.
This makes the room look less squat and does not give the impression of being overcrowded.
Raised sofa and armchairs, high tables and stools - all this looks light and graceful. Excessive massiveness and compaction of the interior must be avoided.
Vertical elements in the decor create a harmonious composition and redirect the view from the furniture, distributing it along the entire height of the walls.
Indispensable for rooms with low or dark ceilings, as they add height. It is better if they are thin: too wide stripes will emphasize the imperfections of the room.
If you want to zone the space, for example, in a studio apartment, it is better to use light and airy fabrics for this. The ideal option would be tulle.
Choose colors that are light and unobtrusive: white, pink, yellow, peach, blue, lilac and pale green will do.
Dense, heavy and dark fabrics should be avoided.
