1. Keep the room light and airy

While a lot of famous interior designers tell us that it’s ok to paint your rooms dark colors even if you have a small space, we beg to differ. When there isn’t one continuous hue, a room always feels larger. White, for instance, is ideal for tiny rooms because it reflects light and keeps any place looking open and airy, even though it may appear like an overrated hue.

2. Use large mirrors

One of the best storage hacks is using large mirrors to create the illusion of a bigger space. And trust me, it works! Not only do they provide more light, but they also give the impression that the room is broader and taller. They are also a fantastic way to decorate. Designers occasionally suggest hanging enormous mirrors from the ceiling, especially in the living room.
