Renk Paleti
Neden İşe Yarar
Small rooms benefit from design strategies that trick the eye into perceiving more space. Light colors on walls and ceilings reflect more light, making boundaries feel further away. Furniture with exposed legs creates visible floor space underneath, which the brain reads as openness. Mirrors placed opposite windows double the perceived depth of the room. Multi-functional pieces — a storage ottoman, a fold-down desk, a bed with drawers — eliminate the need for additional furniture that would crowd the space.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular
What colors make a small room look bigger?
Light colors — whites, soft grays, pale blues, and warm creams — reflect more light and make walls feel further away. Painting the ceiling the same color as the walls eliminates visual boundaries. A single dark accent wall can add depth without shrinking the overall feel.
What furniture works best in small rooms?
Choose pieces with visual lightness: exposed legs, glass or acrylic surfaces, and slim profiles. Multi-functional furniture like storage ottomans, nesting tables, and murphy beds maximize utility without crowding the space.
