With minimalistic trending more and more, less is quite enough, More than enough. Clean lines and no clutteron walls is best in small spaces

Go light and airy Whites, lights, neutrals add space and energy of a calming kind.

Contrast with cloth — solid colours on tables serve a purpose or if you need texture, go delicate

Glass or glassy, transparent and sheer, these elements add space to tiny areas Sheer drapes or blinds the same colour as walls add to the sense of space Cramming furniture cramps-space and guests

Keep all furniture a few inches away from the wall rather than backed up against it,

Use mirrors or mirrored artefacts on walls
