When you're trying to make your living room look bigger, you can use some tricks. For example, you can use mini shelves made out of MDF. These can be bought from DIY stores and cut to size.

 

Then, you can paint them a lighter shade than your walls. Once the shelf unit is painted, you can add accessories. You can place vases, books, or ornaments on them.

 

Just remember that the shelves should not become cluttered, so try to make them show off your best pieces. Adding family photos is always a hit in a living room, so consider hanging them up or creating a framed display.

In addition to the lighting, you'll also need to think about the colour scheme. You can use a combination of colours and patterns in the living room, but make sure to select paint colours that will not clash with your furnishings.

While the placement of single elements is important, it's equally important to choose a focal point. The focal point should be the most prominent feature in the room.

 

After that, the rest of the room should revolve around it. For example, the sofas and tables should be arranged around the centre of the focal point. A large piece of furniture may dominate the space, while smaller pieces should be centred on the wall.
