Rental houses definitely come in all shapes and sizes, and so do the rooms inside them. Relative to the style and age of the property, you may ascertain that the bedrooms in your rental home are a tad bit on the smaller side by today’s standards. Rooms that feel dark and cramped are not, as a matter of fact, captivating for likely residents and may make it absolutely difficult to get your rental home leased quickly. The amazing news is that there is a lot you can work on to hugely improve the look and feel of small bedrooms. Attentively implementing a few straightforward guidelines, you can very easily make bedrooms look bigger than they are.
Light colors make rooms appear larger
The first place a majority of design experts start is with paint color. So far as it concerns small spaces, your choice of paint can make a big difference. Interior designers indicate trying out light colors in a single-color family. Coordination is the central key to making small rooms look bigger. Dark or bright colors and accent walls will obviously divide the flow of the room, making it look smaller.
Another basic design strategy is to paint the trim a lighter color. White is a huge favorite as it reflects light and gives a space a clean, airy feel. When the trim is lighter than the wall color, this certainly creates a sense of depth that can help a small room seem larger than it actually is.
Utilize empty space to create depth
Though it sounds definitely obvious, empty space is, indeed, one of the best ways to make a bedroom look larger. Dark or large light fixtures, long, heavy curtains, and other features can crowd a small room. If your rental home is furnished, furniture with narrow lines and legs that raise it off the floor can massively help keep the room from feeling cramped. Another tip is to hang sheer drapes just below the ceiling, drawing the eye upward and rendering the room an airy and spacious feel.
Lighting and reflective surfaces
Proper lighting and shiny surfaces are a few other useful tactics to make a small room look bigger. Lots of bedrooms have a single overhead light that may or may not show the room in the best light. Seriously consider adding additional lighting to easily illuminate dark corners or brighten a closet. Reflective surfaces like mirrors or glass can certainly add light and depth to a small space. Try installing a tall mirror on a door or near a window to make the room seem bigger.
