Small apartments do not have a large floor space, and this becomes a major problem while decorating small apartments.
By having the right idea and if you the right principles are applied then you can decorate even the smallest apartment well.
Create a large floor space to create a sense of freedom: To give the apartment flavor and style you need to follow some steps which help in giving the apartment the appearance of space.
A large floor space gives a sense of freedom, but as far as a small apartment is concerned this may be a difficult thing to achieve.
With the right kind of effort to create illusionary spaces for small apartments, the apartment can look bigger than it is.
Your room should be given an illusion of more space, so select only those types of couches that do not have skirts, which in turn gives the illusion of extra space in the room.
Storage cupboards and closets need to be designed which suit small apartments.
Furniture should fit well in the room without making the rooms look overwhelmed.
Too much of space is taken by book shelves that look bulky, but for small apartments you can buy alternative book shelves that fit and suit well in small apartments.
Use of mirrors and glass can do the trick: Rooms need to be well lit, because a dark room makes the space look smaller.
For this you can buy the latest chic ceiling and floor lamps which is one good reason for purchasing new lamps for the apartment.
Fixing mirrors in the room is also an interesting aspect.
It gives the illusion of space and also reflects light, which makes the apartment look spacious.
Avoid using wooden tables, like large dining tables.
A table with a glass top can do the trick, as you see through the glass which helps in making the room look larger.
Glass gives an illusion of space and as if there is not many items around.
People in large apartments also desire to give the illusion of space, so small apartments compulsorily should be done up in a way to give the impression of open space and also provide style and comfort at the same time.
For coloring the walls, avoid dark bold colors like dark brown, dark green navy blue and black.
With the right use of lighter colors one can actually bring the apartment and room together.
Light colors reflect light and make the room look clean and bright and besides that they give an illusion of a larger space.
Rooms look airy and fresh, which makes one have the desire to live in such an apartment.
Again even the furniture around the room, and the upholstery of the furniture, the rugs and carpets on the floor, the curtains on the walls, need to be of lighter colors to eradicate any visual obstruction.
