All the spaces in a house face a lot of challenges when it comes to designing. However, since the living room is where we spend most of the time, interior designing it with small ideas makes a huge difference. Here are some ways to make a living room look and feel more spacious.

 Use Neutral Colours

Many interior designers like to use neutral colours when it comes to the small living room. We mostly see neutral colours on the walls, ceiling, floor and furniture upholstery. Using soft hues brightens the living room by reflecting the light. This helps in giving an enlarged view to the area.

Choose Furniture with a Lightweight Appearance

The furniture with a lightweight appearance doesn’t dominate the space in a living room. So when you shop for furniture, it is suggestible to consider its visual weight. You can analyse this by considering the object based on colour, design and size. Select light-weight furniture pieces and opt for pale colours over darker ones. Regarding size, pick the one that has legs and avoid the boxy ones. Go for glass end tables or coffee glass table as they require less visual space than the wooden ones.

*Furnishings with open views make an area look more open.

 The above ideas are just a few of the many strategies apt to make a living room look spacious. If you are interested to learn more on how to use spaces creatively for the living room, enrol for an interior designing course and keep experimenting with what you learn.
