How visually to increase space

How visually to increase space

If in the house there is room which needs to be increased visually, then it is desirable to begin with finishing: walls, floor, ceiling. Not less important role is played by color gamma, illumination and filling of interior.

Instruction

1. Choose light pastel tone for walls. If you use wall-paper, then take one of the following options: monophonic, in the small low-contrast drawing or with vertical strips (also low-contrast). Do not use the scheme of pasting "with border".

2. Too make floor and ceiling light. The floor covering can be executed from light glossy tile, laminate or parquet. Do not close floor big carpet, put small light rug in the middle of the room or about sofa. The stretch glossy ceiling will make the room higher.

3. Add to interior of mirror and glass surfaces. Hang up big sheets of mirrors on wall. Choose the arrangement which is the most suitable to your room: partially close one of walls from floor to ceiling; make mirror corner that will create prospect; pick up mirrors approximately on half of wall height, since ceiling. The last option will create illusion of partition and continuation of space behind it.

4. Use cabinet with mirror or glass doors and table with glass surface. Only do not allow reflection of mirror in mirror.

5. Pick up curtains, furniture, accessories in tone to wall-paper. The less they will be allocated against the background of walls, the less spaces will "take away". Provide removable covers as light furniture is pretty fast soiled.

6. Choose not really big furniture with the minimum quantity of parts. The it is simpler than the line, the easier they look. Instead of chairs put convenient padded stools better.

7. Have furniture along walls and on corners, do not encumber the middle of the room. The more the "clean" space in the middle, the more looks the room.

8. Leave in sight as little as possible small objects – ware, accessories, household appliances, etc. When there is too much them, there is feeling of clutter and that all this simply could not be put.

9. If it is possible, do not use heavy dense curtains, hang up translucent curtains from fine fabric.

10. Correctly arrange lighting. Consider that daylight, the hidden (built-in) illumination and point sources of light (halogen lamps, floor lamp) visually increase space. It is better to refuse the central lighting.
