Ways To Make Your Room Look Bigger

Many people live in a small room or a small house and there can be a lot of reasons for it. Mostly, it can be their choice or just not being able to afford a big one. Making a small room look bigger, on the other hand, is a very technical task that requires creativity and keen observance. Without knowing exactly what needs to be done, you may not make the space to be what you’d like it to be.

Wondering if you could do it? Yes, you can, and below are a few tips to help you achieve that.

1. Clear The Clutter

The first step towards a spacious and bigger bedroom is to clear-out the junk. Usually, this means to remove all the items that are not used very often and take up too much space in the room like beds and larger mattresses, infant bouncy seat, more than one couches and pretty much anything that is not mandatory to be in the room.

While doing this gives more and more space to the room as the items are cleared-out, it can also be advantageous for overall impressions of the room.

2. Use Light Color In Paints


Dark and Deep colours like black, dark brown on the walls are the last options you’ll want to have, especially, for small rooms. Now, this is mainly because of the overwhelming nature of these colours; instead of making the room feel less-congested, dark colours tend to absorb light which significantly reduces reflection and luminance in the room.

Consequently, a human mind, that has an involuntary reaction to dark places in form of a feeling of overcrowding, will get the impression that the room you’re standing in is smaller than its actual size.

On the other hand, light colours are much less absorbing and they giveaway a positive vibe. Thus, increasing the comfort and make the room feel wider at the same time.

3. Match-Make Your Furniture

Now, this is where you need to get creative. Find ideas about furniture that matches your walls and creates such an illusion that takes the breath away; not space.

Matching furniture and walls tend to make coherent and delicate rooms. This blend, without an argument, can make your furniture blend into your room without making it much obvious and interrupting.

4. Use Big Mirrors


We all know the benefits of having big mirrors in the room. While they add beauty and class to the room, they create an illusion of a larger room for you at the same time. Ultimately, using mirrors can help you get a room-enlarging effect.

For this purpose, you can set up a framed or oversized mirror and place it alongside a wall.

5. Prefer Size Over Quantity

Last but not least, you can use bigger accessories in your room instead of using smaller ones. For example, you can use a big sofa instead of placing resting-chairs that take-up more and more space in your room.

With the open space thus freed by using single blocks of furniture or goods, you can rest assured that there is enough space available for you to giddy up!
