Interior designers talked about effective ways to visually enlarge a room
Visual expansion of space is the easiest way to make a room bright, spacious and comfortable. The experts shared their secrets on how to do this.
You need to start by clearing the window of unnecessary items. Flowers, coasters, bulky curtains are not the best ways to expand the space. The more light enters a room, the brighter and larger it appears.
Natural lighting should be supplemented with artificial lighting whenever possible. Here you need to make the most of all the possibilities of the latter. Correctly selected lamps and sconces will visually increase the space.
And if you add mirrors here, then in addition to light, an optical illusion will also appear. Reflections cause visual expansion of walls, ceilings and floors. It is advisable to place paintings or furniture in front of the mirrors. This will add a special charm to the space.
As for the decoration, the use of light shades is encouraged in the visual expansion of the space. Dark colors help create a romantic atmosphere, but they tend to absorb light. And this goes to the visual narrowing of the space.
Light colors will help make the space stand out. But here you should not forget about the ceiling, which should be painted in the appropriate color. It is better to use paint that allows you to achieve a matte effect and hide the uneven surfaces.
And the most important thing can be considered - a reasonable arrangement of furniture and decor items. Sofas, paintings, pillows and lamps can help, but they should not be overused.
