Desires diverge from possibilities when one of the rooms in the apartment turns out to be very narrow.
It is difficult to organize the space, arrange furniture and even choose finishing materials in such a room. Due to the miscalculations of the designers, it will always be cramped and boring here. But the problem can be solved.
Method one
You need to start with the floor coverings. If it is laminate or linoleum with a pattern under a wooden covering, then it should be placed so that the stripes are located across, and not along. A simple technique effectively expands the space.
The second way
It is necessary to use any options and introduce transverse elements even on the ceiling, beams, for example. As for furniture, if possible, it should be placed in the center of the room, and not along the wall. This can be a group of upholstered furniture, creating a barrier.
The third way
You can change the space with wall decoration that distracts from the rectangular shape, but only professional designers can do this.
Method four
Using ceiling directional light fixtures, you need to illuminate the long walls in a narrow room. The fixtures themselves should be inconspicuous.
The fifth way
Choose light or cool shades for painting long walls. If you choose wallpaper, the pattern should be small and barely noticeable. In this case, transverse walls are painted in bright and warm colors or covered with wallpaper with a large pattern.
These simple techniques will allow you to change the proportions of a room without re-planning.
