New Delhi, India (BBN)-In this day an age, where property prices are flying sky-high, it is really difficult to get a big space that also fits in with your budget.
So, you end up with a small house with rooms, reports the IANS.
But fret not because there are so many ways you can make any small room look large.
Pick the right colour scheme, play with mirrors and blend the shades to make the tiny space look larger, says an expert.
Rajat Singhi, founder and creative director of Address Home, lists out six tips that you should keep in mind while rearranging your home to make it look spacious.
Clever colouring
The choice of colours for the walls, drapes and furnishings play the biggest role in transforming the entire look of the room. Darker shades are good to use for a big rooms not a small room.
Mirror miracle
A number of mirrors or even smaller ones do give the illusion of a bigger space.
Blend the shades
Do not have the same colour in each and every room. You can blend in a few shades, for example, a pale blue wall with a pink drape and furnishing results for a pleasant colour scheme that goes well with every season.
Choose wood wisely
Having furniture and wooden panels in white and off-white too will make a room look bigger as compared to dark wooden panels and furniture.
Luminous lighting
Make sure that your home gets ample of natural light which will make it look bigger instantly. However, it is not necessary that each home is blessed with natural light and big windows, so for that you can create that effect by using fixtures that set the same mood.
Say no to clutter
It is very important that you do not clutter your space, rather keep it really tidy and neat so that appears to be bigger.
