Another one Living room is a cozy place where we spend our nights, invite family and friends and it is important in every home. How do I decorate it so that it accommodates everything I need without looking too small?
Use neutrals
Neutral and light tones visually expand the space, soft tones also tend to brighten a room by reflecting light. A neutral color palette not only enlarges the space, but also instantly adds sophistication and creates a calming atmosphere. Opt for neutral walls, floors, ceilings and of course furniture upholstery.

Place a love seat instead and you will get a perfect look. Space-saving solutions with additional storage space or those that can be hidden in the walls or are also welcome in any small room, including small living rooms. Of course, an important point is that the lighter your furniture looks, the better.

Place mirrors and lights
Mirrors make your room appear larger and also reflect light to illuminate it better. This creates a nice, cozy atmosphere, and we all know: the brighter the room, the larger it appears. When it comes to lighting, the brighter the room, the larger it appears. Therefore, provide multiple layers of light.
