How to make your living space feel spacious: The best designer tricks

Spacious rooms seem bright, filled with air, and so we feel free and comfortable.

Unfortunately, not all of us live in huge houses or apartments, but some tricks will help you make your home more spacious.

Here are some of them.

Declutter and organize

Keep only essential and meaningful items in your living space, and find smart storage solutions to keep everything organized and out of sight.

Maximize natural light

Avoid heavy or dark-colored curtains that can block light and opt for light, sheer curtains or blinds instead.

Choose light colors

Opt for soft, neutral tones or pastel shades that reflect light and make the room feel brighter and more open. 

Use mirrors strategically

Place large mirrors strategically opposite windows or in areas that can capture and bounce light around the room. 

Furniture placement and scale

Avoid overcrowding by selecting appropriately sized furniture pieces that fit the scale of the room. 

Use furniture with exposed legs to create a sense of openness, and leave some negative space between pieces to promote a feeling of spaciousness.

Keep the floor visible

Allow some of the floor to be visible, as it creates a sense of continuity and openness. 

Use rugs strategically to define specific areas or add texture, but ensure they don't overwhelm the space.

Utilize vertical space

Install shelves or floating wall units to keep items off the floor and create a sense of height in the room.
