- Utilize larger pieces of furniture in small spaces to avoid the cluttered look caused by multiple small items.
- Incorporate light blue elements like wall paint, drapes, or bedding to create an expansive feel in a small room.
- For a restful bedroom, position the bed diagonally from the door and use cool colors like blues, greens, and purples to promote tranquility.
