Create the appearance of more space in a tiny room with these interior decorator tips and tricks.

You Will Need
Colorful paint
Big furniture
Two mirrors
Complementary furnishings
Sheer curtains
Subway or glass tile

Step 1: Use color(尽量选择一些颜色较深的,如果你喜欢亮色,可以在屋角出使用深一点的阴影)
Use vibrant paint. Contrary to popular belief, white doesnt make a room look larger; deeper colors do, by making corners disappear. If you want to use a light color, give the space an accent wall in a darker shade; it elongates the room by making the wall appear to recede.

If you have carpeting, paint the baseboards the same color.

Step 2: Avoid small furniture(尽量不要选择太小的家具)
Avoid small furniture. It may seem counterintuitive, but a few oversized pieces work better in a modestly-sized room than a lot of tiny furnishings, which just make a room look cluttered.

Step 3: Use two mirrors(摆两个大镜子)
Place mirrors on walls across from each other to produce the illusion of a room that goes on and on.

Choose mirrors with thick glass, which better reflects dimension.

Step 4: Choose complementary furnishings(选择一些互补的家具)
Choose furnishings in shades that complement each other. Having a lot of competing colors and patterns makes a room look smaller.

Step 5: Let it in the light(充分利用阳光,窗帘可以随意拉动的)
Use sheer curtains that can be pulled completely away from the windows during the day; dark rooms look smaller. Hang the curtain rod near the ceiling, and have it extend past the sides of the window; this gives the illusion of a larger window, and therefore a larger room.

Step 6: Tile it(贴瓷砖)
In small kitchens and bathrooms, use subway tile - 3 by 6-inch ceramic tilesto add depth, or glass tile, which reflects light.

Did you know?Japan invented the capsule hotel concept, which offer rooms as small as 75 square feet.
