Maybe it’s because every time they build smaller homes or may be by our innate to accumulate things that do not really need trend. But one thing is clear: at home, we always need more meters.
Like magic does not exist, the only solution is to draw on the decoration to earn extra meters in our rooms. Today we present some ideas to enlarge the house.
Take the height of the rooms
One mistake we often make when decorating is to think horizontally rather than vertically. In other words, we forget the height of the walls. Therefore, we recommend you place in shelves, cabinets and shelves high altitude and to maximize the space of your rooms.
Note that a horizontal shelf recharge less space than a vertical. If you do not want to fill the room, you can place several shelves at the top of the room (near the ceiling) and leave the rest of the space for other furniture and accessories.
Simple designs and light colors
Less is more. Another basic rule you should remember if you want to optimize the space of your rooms. So choose light pieces, simple designs, simple prints, light colors, light textiles, furniture in soft tones and without handles, pieces with dual function …
That is, decorated with the basic pieces (just and necessary), and runs from the ornate designs. And, of course, choose light and bright colors that will help multiply the light and gain breadth in your rooms.
Power windows
There are other elements that help us to enlarge the house and, therefore, we must strengthen. We refer to the windows. They are our connection to the outside, therefore we must avoid obstacles in order to allow natural light to flow through the room.

Therefore, our advice is to place them somewhere in the room in which the light is reflected. As a matter of aesthetics, it should ensure that the mirrors reflect nice details of decoration. A good trick to enlarge the house with mirrors is to place them in such a way that reflects the outside. Thus, it would seem that we have an extra window.
More light sources and well distributed
We have booked the most important for last: the lighting. Although natural light is the best ally of decoration, artificial also helps us to enlarge the spaces.
The indirect artificial light, pointing toward the ceiling, we help to gain altitude in the rooms. While the light that illuminates the ground produces shadows on the walls and corners.
Given this detail, we recommend multiply the points of light and distribute the lamps very well in every corner of the room. Plays with light to create new perspectives and make your space look bigger than they really are.
And do not forget that some models of lamps emit more light than others. We refer, for example, luminaries with transparent screen or even bulb in sight.
