Many owners of apartments with a small area are sure of the following: in cramped rooms you should install only compact furniture.

It would seem that this approach is correct, because there is a need to save space.

However, Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti in the field of design and interior, assures that a large sofa will look good in a small room.

The same applies to other large items: beds, wardrobes, nightstands, tables, etc.

Why is big furniture better than small?

The answer is simple: an abundance of compact pieces of furniture often causes the room to become overly cluttered.

If there are many poufs, small tables and nightstands in the room, then there will certainly be a feeling of crampedness. There will be no sense of coziness.

But a huge sofa will create a more pleasant impression: it will seem that there is a lot of free space in the room.

Therefore, it is advisable to replace many small items with one large one.
