Most of the times, small apartment owners always have to deal with the number one problem- space. But here are some tips on how to make a small room feel bigger and more appealing:

•CHOOSE A LIGHT COLOUR PALETTE
One of the downsides of staying in a small room is that they tend to be dark and kinda stuffy but choosing a light colour palette makes the room feel bigger, brighter unlike dark colours that absorbs light.

•ADD MORE FUNCTION TO YOUR FURNITURE
Spaces and clutter go hand in hand like bread and butter. To tackle cluster, make sure items have more than one purpose. For example, an ottoman that has storage space inside of it can be used as a table, extra seating and storage for books, remotes etc. Find at least twp uses for every item

•CREATE VISUAL INTEREST
Small rooms often lack defining architectural feautures. Try painting an accent wall or painting inside of shelving units to provide the illusion of depth and create a focal point.

•USE A LOT OF LIGHTING
Don't just rely on that sole bulb in your ceiling as your only source of light. Let in natural light by opening up your window or using light draperies. Light does wonders for small spaces, making them feel brighter and airy.

Thanks for the info... Gotta apply this tips..

•CHOOSE SIMPLE FURNITURE
Furniture take up the most space in a room. Drop that large leather sofa and go for something more simple and light that will 'disappear' into the overall design.


•USE PATTERN
certain patterns can create the illusion of depth and space. Vertical stripes on a wall makes the walls look higher while horizontal stripes can make a room appear wider.

As I said light colour palette is the best option. Colours like White, light blue and a light shade of Green or grey. But of course, you don't wanna paint your four walls blue, else, your room won't look any different from a nursery room or a bathroom.

Very good thought sir. Something with clean lines and low arms goes well in a small room. Fabric of the furniture is important too. Try not to go for something too bold or heavy cos it will be too overwhelming in the space.

consider and take a look at how these rooms look.

Being organised and having little stuffs are very paramount When staying in a small room. Small spaces can be multi functional (as seen in pic 1, which is a combination of a living room and a little office space)

And if you want a touch of colour, you can go for something more like this.

Another important feature a small space must have is:
¤ STORAGE: shelves, niches, cupboards etc are very necessary in a small space. Mount up a shelf up to the ceiling to free up floor space. Shelves can also be a decorative element. And always try to make storage hidden if you don't want your room to look like a store
