With these 5 tricks your apartment looks much bigger and brighter
Of course we would all like to have a big, light and airy apartment. One or the other might even do everything for an old apartment with stucco on the ceilings. But there are some clever tricks that make your home appear much brighter, bigger and friendlier.
1. Place curtains correctly
Leave a lot of space between the windows and the curtain rod. Above all, choose a rod that is extra long and accordingly long curtains. Not only that the airy placement makes the ceiling appear higher, but the curtains also form a frame around the window and do not cover it? Accordingly, it is also lighter in the apartment.
2. Buy no or small carpets
Without a carpet, your little room will look much bigger. And sometimes the beautiful wooden floor and the elegant tiles are worth not to hide. However, if you do not want to give up a rug for the sake of comfort, then at least buy only a small one.
3. Create multiple light sources
Instead of a large lamp from the ceiling, several light sources should be used. Create several islands in one room, each of which emits warm, cozy light. This makes the room not only friendlier, but also larger.
4. Install more mirrors
So you can easily outsmart your eye and cheat your little space bigger. Whether it's a large mirror or several smaller ones, you can create the illusion of size in a fairly simple way.
5. Paint the blanket in cream
Would not you have thought? Well, white makes the room look rather cold and, above all, it visually lowers the ceiling, while cream reminds of the old-style look and creates the illusion of higher ceilings.
