5 Tips to Make Your Small Living Space Look Bigger

Etoile Extendable Dining Table Decorating Idea - Comfort Furniture

There’s a charm as well as challenges in small spaces. But when done well, it will be a retreat you’ll look forward to every day after work.

The key to successful small-space living is learning how to make the rooms in your home look bigger and more spacious with the following steps.

Choosing sofas with just one armrest

In most small living rooms, we don’t have many options on where to position our sofas. Chances are, they’ll be pushed against the wall. Since then we’d already have the wall for some leaning comfort, maybe then you can consider ditching 1 armrest, that is by choosing to have an arm on the side that’s facing the walkway.

Some great examples would be Comfort Furniture’s Ginette 2–Seater Sofa and Bulge Modular Chaise in which you can enjoy the full comfort of a 2-seater sofa with a smaller footprint!

Reflect natural light with mirrors

Living rooms in smaller homes can be easily crowded with family gatherings or when inviting guests over. One of the simplistic yet effective furniture ideas for such scenarios is by decorating the living room with mirrors.

Adding mirrors is a great way to create a sense of openness. Not only do they reflect natural light from outside, but they also reflect the overall view of the living room which tricks the eye into perceiving more space.

Looking for dreamy, minimalist mirrors to “widen” the interior design of your living room? Our Gaper standing mirror comes in light wood colour which can only be placed on the floor.

Have a white table that’s easy to clean and maintain

To make the rooms in your home look bigger, lighter colours such as white, beige and light grey typically reflect more light, making the space feel more open. These colours also add a level of sophistication and calm. Particularly with light-coloured tables, they make a great centrepiece in the living room or dining area. But most people would shy away from them, especially white ones, due to the challenge of upkeeping their pristine white look.

However, that’s not the case with our Etoile extendable dining table! Available in Carrara White (as well as Belgium Black), it’s a sintered top table that caters to a multitude of concerns by being resistant to water stains, heat and scratches. Since sintered surfaces are also non-porous, it makes cleaning old and dried stains much easier (with the help of any dishwashing liquid, or good ol’ Cif).

Need more sintered table options? Check out our beautiful range of sintered stone tables.

Storage, storage, storage

Investing in good storage is one of the ways how you can make the rooms in your living space look bigger. For instance, maximising vertical space. Other than buying side tables for the study area, you can opt for a study table with built-in vertical shelves like our Tyson study table. Or if you prefer to have a separate vertical shelf, take a look at the Subway shelves, which can also double as a shoe rack.

Finding more decorating ideas for small spaces? The pop-coloured, multifunctional Cupcake furniture triples as a stool, coffee table and storage box! When not in use, you can stack them away for easy storing.

In summary, choose a minimalistic style for a more spacious home

From selecting chairs and tables with longer legs, incorporating mirrors, and opting for white centrepieces to taking advantage of furniture with built-in storage, this is the minimalistic style that can keep your home clutter-free and bright.

Besides being intentional with furniture pieces, going for light-coloured posters and wall paint are how you can make rooms look bigger.
