Make your home feel bigger

Following a few simple interior design rules can help you make your home feel larger, more spacious as well as look good. Here are some tips from Metropol.
- Use round pieces
Using rounded edges makes your room seem less grid-like, and fools the eye into the illusion of a bigger, more dynamic space.
- Use metallics as accents
As well as bouncing light, shiny metallic surfaces are interesting to the eye, adding an illusion of depth to any space.
- Blur boundaries using lamps
Use lamps (lots of them) to light dark spots and corners. This will blur where your room begins and ends.
- Add mirrors
Mirrors are an instant room enhancer. They bounce the light around your room and instantly expand horizons.
- Paint walls and ceiling the same colour
Extending the colour gives the illusion of a bigger room. It’s harder for your eyes to see where your walls begin and end.
