Learn these helpful techniques by watching the video below. 

#1 Use of a Focal Point

Focal points have multiple purposes, like organizing the room design easily, creating a wow factor moment, and distracting people from the size of the room. You can make your ceiling the focal point of your room to draw your eyes upward. For ceiling treatments, you can do wallpaper, coffered ceilings, ceiling beams, or bold paint colors.

#2 Vertical Design

When you hang your curtains or drapes, hang them high and wide instead of hanging them just to the size of your windows. Make sure to hang your curtains or drapes at the edge of your window to maximize daylight in your room. Also, use treatments that are the same colors as your walls.

#3 Full-Length Mirrors

You can put a full-length mirror (if possible) in the areas where you would typically have a window but don’t, such as behind the couch or a console table. You can also place the mirror opposite a window to help bounce natural light or place it behind a piece of furniture.

#4 Floating Seating

Lastly, keep your primary seating away from your walls.
