Are you dreaming of expanding your small apartment, but don't know how? Easily! 6 work tips

If, after reading the title, you thought: “What would be the best wall to demolish in your apartment,” then I hasten to reassure you that this will not be needed. Since it is possible to expand modest square meters in simpler ways!

Good afternoon dear friends!

After all, small apartments in Russia are much more common than large ones. Thanks to this, a lot of methods for increasing a small footage have accumulated. At the same time, no one says that you need to attach a balcony, a common corridor or a neighbor's apartment to your living space. Since it is enough to competently and wisely approach its layout, decoration and decor. Don't believe me? But in vain!

And to prove this fact to you, I prepared 6 simple steps to increase the size of a small apartment.

1.Color palette. A fairly well-known technique using light colors, which, as a result, is able to visually expand any space. Only at the peak of popularity are white and light gray shades that can make your interior too cold and uncomfortable overnight. So to prevent this from happening, do not be afraid to use dark colors such as black or midnight blue when decorating the room.

And remember that darker shades are best used when decorating the lower part of the room. You can also choose a color gradation for furniture and accessories (from white to dark gray and black or from white to light blue and dark blue).

2."Clean" walls. Alas and ah! But a large number of paintings, photographs and other images make the room small and cramped. Therefore, if you want to bring a sense of spaciousness to your home, then try to leave the walls as free as possible. Well, or in extreme cases, use a laconic, restrained decor - and then only on one of the walls.

At the same time, no one asks you to get rid of your favorite photos. Since they can be placed on a bedside table, chest of drawers or table. And place large posters or pictures in a frame right on the floor.

3.Glossy material. Would you say that glossy materials are no longer in vogue? And you will be right! For matte surfaces are popular today. But this trend does not apply to marble! Since he is always in the "top" and is able to help you make any room in the apartment not only richer, but also visually larger than it really is.

In addition, marble can be used not only as a wall or floor covering, but also as furniture: for example, a coffee table.

4.Uncomplicated furniture. Forget about massive and wide sofas, armchairs or wardrobes. Try to use neat furniture with clear, laconic lines on thin legs when furnishing. It will help you not only create an elegant stylish interior, but also make the room a little more spacious.

Do you prefer built-in furniture? Also not a question! Just try to position it wall to wall and floor to ceiling. And use smooth fronts with a minimum of visible fittings and protruding parts. So you will not burden the already modest space of the apartment!

5.Green stroke. Plants are a great decoration for any apartment, and a small size is no exception. You just need to place them wisely. For example, many flora will look good in the very corner of the room. Such an arrangement will deceive human vision and visually "push back" the walls. In this case, you can use one large plant or several more modest ones, located vertically on "inconspicuous" shelves or in hanging pots.

At the same time, it is better to leave the traditional place for all flowers - the window sill - free.

6."Mirror Trick". The old trick with mirrors still works today! With them, the room always seems brighter, more spacious, airy. The only thing, if you want to enhance the effect of this trick, then try to choose vertical frameless mirrors or with a thin frame edging.

So they will not distract attention to themselves, but will only do their main job - reflecting natural and artificial light, bring depth to the space!
