If you live in a smaller space, it’s natural to want to find ways to make it look and feel bigger. Fortunately, there are many little things you can do to achieve this. By finding the right tricks, your space can feel much bigger.

Remove Clutter

One thing that makes your space feel small is a lot of clutter. This is because clutter takes up the limited amount of space you have. With clutter, you take away from space to work, relax, etc. When you remove clutter, you can clear up more space and make your space visually appear bigger. Removing clutter from your home can be made easy if you make a plan for yourself. For example, you can create a sorting system when decluttering. You can have separate bags/boxes/piles for stuff you’re keeping, storing elsewhere, or throwing a way. You can also declutter by giving everything in your home a designated spot.

Add Light

Another great way to make your space look bigger is to add more light. Lighter spaces will feel much bigger and they create a very inviting space as well. You can add more light by using sheer or translucent curtains over windows. Adding more reflective surfaces into your space can also increase the light. Of course, you can also add more lamps or string lights around your space. You can also consider how to add more light to usually darker rooms like your bathroom. Glass shower doors enlarge your bathroom space by letting in more natural and artificial light. Get creative as you find more ways to lighten your space.

Scale Down

There are so many ways to make your space look bigger, but the way you decorate and fill your space can have a major impact. To make the room look bigger, you can start by using smaller furniture. Instead of a large sectional couch, you could switch to a smaller couch or loveseat and some comfy chairs. You can also scale down your coffee table and other furniture in the room. In addition to furniture, you can scale down the décor that you have. A more minimalist style will lead to there being more free space in your home and this can make it appear bigger.

Not everyone has a big living space, but it doesn’t have to look that way. You can apply many tricks to your space in order to make it look and feel bigger. Doing so can help you enjoy your home more.
