11. Match your walls with your curtains
Matching is a common thing to be seen, especially when it comes to interior design. When you match your curtains and walls, it will seem as if the entire room flows into one being; there’s no separation, making it come off as being much larger than it usually would.
12. Keep your windows clean
Clean windows will allow more light into the room, but it will also just make the setting a much more sensible one. Dirty windows can distract the eye quite a bit, and you need to make sure the glass is clean on both sides. I would suggest using a spray bottle with water/vinegar, and some old newspaper.
13. Monochromatic color schemes
When you go with the monochromatic look (which is when you pick one color, and decide to work with that one alone, or maybe a few shades higher/lower), it adds continuity to your rooms. Everything comes together, but it doesn’t seem cluttered by any means; all of your accessories, furniture and anything else can be based off of your first color.
14. Keep your floor clean
This would fall under the same category as the window aspect, because keeping your floor clean will allow guests to look at it with ease. If you’ve done all of that hard work to make your floor apparent in the room, why not keep it clean as well?
15. Remove your clutters
If there is any sort of clutter in your room, make sure you dispose of it quickly (and properly). Clutter is the 1 problem in small rooms, as it makes them appear even more petite. Keep them clean and you’ll notice a big difference.
16. Your paint should be from dark to light, and from low to high
When your lighter colors are at the top of the room, it’s almost like rising to the heavens. A baby blue base that consistently fades into white not only looks amazing, but it will make the room appear larger as a result.
17. Creative corners
The corners of your room are a place to get creative, as this is where you need to draw the eyes of your guest. Using pieces of furniture (like an armchair) or even just a bookshelf could do the trick. Don’t just go about hanging tons of paintings around. It makes the wall feel cramped up! It’s better to hang them near the corners.
18. Properly sized furniture
If your furniture isn’t of the proper size, how can you expect to make a good impression? Using large couches and armchairs within a small room is a problem, because it doesn’t mesh well with the setting. Figure out the proper sizing for your furniture needs, and then go from there.
19. Reflect as much light as possible
In smaller rooms, you can make use of mirrors and shimmering fabrics to reflect more light around the room. Light has a tendency to make things seem larger than they are, especially when it comes to tiny rooms. There many different accessories to be considered that shimmer and reflect light, so it’s a great addition to be made.
And finally,
20. Personalize it to your liking
With everything we’ve talked about today, the job isn’t handled correctly unless you’ve personalized the space to your liking. The only individual you should be worried about pleasing is yourself, regardless of how many guests are going to be coming over throughout the year.
