#1 Do you have enough natural lighting?
Natural lighting instantly opens up any space and provides a modern look at the same tame. You can try out including large windows all around your living room.
#2 Raised sofas and armchairs
Sofas and armchairs raised on legs, usually create a sense of light and space.
#3 Make your ceiling look higher
Many people think that the only way to decorate a small house is with small furniture. You don’t have to limit your choices. For example, using a wall-to-wall bookcase in your home décor will make your ceiling look higher – and at the same time, it will provide you a great amount of space.

#4 Use neutral Colors
Beige, Gray or white. Those bright and neutral colors give the illusion of a bigger space. That’s probably why minimalist design has become such a huge trend.
#5 Try see-through furniture
For a bigger room, try to fool the eye into thinking that there is more space than there actually is. How? Glass tables and Lucite chairs.
#6 Include Mirrors
Another trick to expand your space visually is through the reflection. If mirrors are already a key element to any home décor, then they are even more essential in a small house.
#7 Paint your ceiling
Another tip to make your ceiling look higher is if you paint it with a bright color.
#8 Hang Artwork
Artwork can make any room feel more luxurious and bigger in the process. Doesn’t matter how small is your home, there is always space for art.
#9 Find the best angle
Once more, many people think that placing furniture against the walls is the right choice. It might not be. You can try to place a piece at an angle or surrounded by open space.
#10 Choose the same color for your walls and furniture
Use matching colors and you’ll have a clean and neat space, with furniture that blends perfectly with the walls.

I like that you said that natural lighting instantly opens up any space and provides a modern look at the same time. My husband and I are thinking about redesigning our kitchen and other parts of our home to update the look of it and help us have the house we always wanted. I think that it would be smart to look into adding more natural light to help open things up and to maybe help us save on our energy bill as well.
