The question of how to visually expand a narrow room is of interest to many people today, since many problems arise in the process of arranging such rooms.
But, according to experts, even a narrow room can be made beautiful and functional if you approach the issue of its arrangement correctly.
Features of arrangement of narrow spaces
You can expand the space with the help of light. Install lighting fixtures so that the light is directed from the center of the ceiling to the walls, says Yulia Tychino .
You can accentuate the far narrow wall by pasting wallpaper with a large print or photo wallpaper on it. And decorate the remaining walls in a monochromatic neutral color scheme. (It is preferable to use a light color).
If you use laminate for finishing the floor, lay it perpendicular to the long walls. And for finishing narrow walls, choose wallpaper with horizontal stripes - all this will allow you to visually expand the room.
If you plan to lay parquet, it is advisable to lay square panel modules at an angle of 45 degrees. It can also be laid diagonally.
If you prefer linoleum or carpet, choose plain options without patterns.
Do not install furniture along long walls. If possible, divide the room into several functional zones using furniture.
If there is a need for a desk, then we put it near the window. We put the wardrobe near another narrow wall. This will improve the proportions of the room.
Choose contrasting colors for wall decoration. To visually expand a narrow space, choose cool or light neutral shades for finishing long walls.
And for the decoration of the end walls we choose bright, rich warm colors with a large pattern.
