Though you may not be a lucky one to own a spacious penthouse or a 3BHK apartment, you should not lose heart. For, there are many options available when it comes to designing a small apartment. Below are some simple ideas to execute to make your small room spacious enough.
Get rid of the trash from your room
There may be too many small things in your drawing room eating up a lot of floor space. What you can do is dump all the old antique pieces and other small things in a big box to dump them forever. Keeping them in the room will only make your room look cluttered. You need to sit down and decide what is absolutely essential that occupies a good amount of space in your room. Be specific about what you want in your room and get rid of all unwanted things.
Avoid window treatments
You may find those heavy window treatments as a pleasure to the eye but you have no idea how much space they end up occupying in your small room. Apart from the space that they occupy, they also block the outside light to an extent from entering your room. Instead of those bulky window treatments, you can opt for window shutters, blinds or shades. Blinds are a great option as they occupy little space and can give your room the desired look. One visit at the interior décor store and you will be amazed to see the different types of blinds available. If you are flexible with your budgets, then you can also opt for custom designed blinds that complement your home interiors.
Wall paint
Though painting walls with bright and bold colours is an in thing, remember that bold colours only make your room small and cramped. Opt for lighter shades and hues and as far as possible, paint all the walls in the room in a single colour. If you wish to break the monotony, then opt for similar shades and hues. Lighter shades create a feeling of openness and an illusion of a spacious room.
