Installing mirrors is not the only way to visually enlarge space.

The room can be made visually wider even without using reflective surfaces. But then you will need a certain carpet.

Many people believe that there should be no such product in the room at all. And in vain, because a properly selected floor covering of this type decorates the room and makes it much more spacious and cozy.

Recommendations on choosing a product were shared by Yulia Tychino, an expert in the field of design and interior design for the online publication BelNovosti.

What kind of carpet will visually expand the space?

If the room is small, then it is worth choosing a carpet with repeating geometric shapes.

It is important that they are of different sizes. The ideal option is as follows: large triangles/squares/circles on the edges, and small ones in the center.

The size of the figures should become smaller as they approach the central part of the carpet.

It is this pattern that creates an interesting optical illusion: a sense of volume arises. It seems that the carpet is "three-dimensional".

Thanks to this, the room visually expands. The room begins to be perceived as very spacious.
