The main purpose of a bedroom in any home is to provide an atmosphere of peace, relaxation and privacy.

Therefore, by definition, it must be cozy!

But what if your bedroom is very small in area and you feel like the walls are pressing on you, says Yulia Tychino .

There is only one way out: resort to design tricks and increase the apparent size of the bedroom without resorting to radical design solutions.

Here are some tips that will help you improve the situation.

Without thinking, remove all unnecessary things from the room! "Sacrifice" an unnecessary chair, ironing board, etc. Convince yourself that they simply have no place here.

For the same purpose, try to furnish your bedroom with only small, practical furniture. It will fulfill its purpose without "stealing" your living space.

When arranging objects in the room, avoid free space between them. For example, a nightstand can be placed close to the bed.

To visually expand the bedroom, use wallpaper or paint in light colors. Use wallpaper with a horizontal pattern (such wallpaper also increases the visible area of the room).

By hanging a large mirror opposite the window, your bedroom will significantly "add" in size.

Avoid a large number of pictures on the walls. If you can't do without them at all, then limit yourself to just one picture, hanging it above the bed.

In the color scheme of the bedroom, give preference to white. It "pushes apart" the walls, and also gives the room a feeling of freshness and cleanliness.

Decorative elements, toys, books and other items look great against a white background.
