Well, I think most of us heard about it already from our grandparents, and/or even from our parents. Nope! Painting your room with dark colors is usually the advice for creating a sense of space in small rooms, but that doesn’t mean it is always the right answer. There are sometimes that small rooms can also benefit from dark or bold colors. Of course, not only that can be incredibly cozy but also, deep colors can be deep and dramatic, giving a small room a much bigger presence.

Unfortunately, what we usually believe that painting our walls and/or ceiling in neutral colors are always safe is definitely not always safe thing to have. When not done properly, neutrals can be bland, boring and lifeless – and the worst thing a room can be is bland and boring. However, if you really want and choose to decorate your walls and/or ceilings with neutral colors, you just have to make sure to address its tone, texture, depth and shape. If you fail to address any of these features and/or issues, then you will definitely have a boring and lifeless room. And I’m sure you don’t want to have that kind of room, right?

There might be some of you here who believe that all the wood finishes in a room and/or any other rooms in the house should match with each other. Well, it is partly not true, since mixing woods would help create a sense of depth and interest in any space of your house. However, you just have to make sure that the colors complement each other. For instance, woods with red tones don’t go well with woods that have orange tones. Like with any other decorating elements, they need to be complemented to achieve nicer and of your desired outcome.

This is one of the biggest mistakes most homeowners make with their small rooms. Sometimes, if not most of the times, they are trying to squeeze in too many small pieces of their furniture. Instead, it is better to accept that there are such limitations o the space that you have provided. Moreover, cramming in too many pieces makes a small room look even smaller. So, you better try not to include things that are not that useful to you inside you room.
