Having a small house doesn't mean that you have to live feeling cramped and suffocated. Today, we are showing you tips and tricks on how to maximize every square inch of your home. Let's take a look!

1. Wallpaper

Printed or wallpaper covered walls makes the room look like it's one big space. Opt for small and light colored prints.

2. Multi-function furniture

Maximize space like how this wall holds a couch and a bed. It was smart to have the same color on the frame of the bed and the wall, too! 

3. Mirror

Strategically place mirror in the room to expand space. This large mirror doubled the size of the bedroom instantly. 

4. Kitchen counter

An entire dining set could take up too much space. A good alternative is a kitchen counter that does not only save space, but it looks chic and stylish, too!

5. Detachable furniture

A smart solution, this detachable chopping board is a space saver. Take it out whenever you need it. Remove it and keep in out of sight when you don't.

6. Handleless cabinets

This type of cabinet can disguise as a wall. You get a minimalist kitchen and a sleek cabinet.

7. Same wall color

Painting the walls of two different areas of the house with the same color makes the entire space look unified, and therefore, bigger. 

8. Open windows

An unobstructed view opens up the house and make it appear more spacious. The entire house looks lighter when you let sunlight in.

9. Statement piece

The eyes are drawn to a statement piece of furniture like this big yellow chair. It just shines and make the room more spacious.  

10. Long drapes

Floor-to-ceiling drapes add a lot more space to the room. Remember to keep it in neutral color, too!

11. Smaller lamps

Another thing that draws attention to the room is a colored wall. The diagonal arrangement of the floor tiles also make the room appear bigger.

13. Tall bookshelves

14. Floating stairs

Wooden staircases tend to look heavy. A good alternative is this floating stairs that also add rhythm and dynamism to the space.
