A properly selected palette, decoration and furniture can visually expand the space in an apartment.

But that’s not all, assures designer Yulia Tychino, an expert at the online publication BelNovosti.

So, do not forget about textiles, without which it is impossible to imagine any living space. Otherwise, you risk turning a cozy room into a boring and rough space, made in the "office" style.

So, for a small room, translucent or transparent curtains are suitable, which should also be light and long.

If the windows face the sunny side and you need to hide from the blinding sun, you should use roller blinds instead of thick curtains.

It takes just a few seconds to roll them up, and it doesn't require much effort.

When choosing bedspreads, give preference to plain, light-colored products without a printed pattern.

But tablecloths are completely unnecessary in small rooms – you shouldn’t clutter the table with unnecessary items.

If you can't imagine your interior without carpets, choose rugs without a thick pile and complex pattern. An excellent option is homespun, carpet-type, which cover the entire surface.
