Letting go of unnecessary clutter present in your house and keeping your room neat and tidy can help the place not look cramped and messy. Try to keep the room clutter-free by only keeping items that are necessary and organizing things properly. This rule also firmly applies to your walls and floors as excessive use of rugs or mats on the floor and excessive use of posters and picture frames on your walls can create the illusion that your room is smaller than it actually is.

  • Lighting is important

The lighting of your room can easily be used to your advantage. Get creative with the lighting of the room by either using natural light or artificial lighting solutions. Open up those windows and avoid the use of heavy curtains. With the room well lit, it will easily give the illusion that your room is larger.

  • Use airy fabrics

Avoid heavy and lofty material that will bring the room down. White bed sheets, and lighter shades of rugs which are smaller in size as such things will make the room look more breathy.

  • Be picky with colours

Opt for lighter hues such as off-white to make the room look more airy. Lighter colours make the room appear much bigger than darker colours which absorb light and make the room appear much smaller.

  • Using the right kind of furniture


Using the right furniture is essential to make your room look bigger. Multi-purpose furniture can be the way to go. These kinds of furniture will require less space and make the room clutter-free too. Sizing and arrangement of these furniture also matter. The bulkier the furniture is, the more space it’ll take. Therefore, try to find solutions such as folding tables which are necessary, can be put away after use, and do not require too much of your space. Additionally, furniture that is closer to the ground will create a feeling of openness in a room simply as they leave more space above them.
