Use light and reflection
Light coloured walls and mirrors help distribute daylight and create a greater sense of openness.
Think vertically
Tall shelves, full height curtains and wall panelling draw the eye upward and use underused wall area.
Choose multifunctional furniture
Sofa beds, nesting tables, storage ottomans and folding tables allow one area to support several needs.
Build storage into architecture
Integrated cabinets, under stair units and loft solutions use spaces that freestanding furniture often misses.
Keep circulation clear
Appropriate furniture scale and unobstructed pathways make compact rooms feel more comfortable.
