Don’t go for White
A lot of people out there are going to make you color your space white. Well, sounds good it does! It may make you think that the white color would add to your living space but in reality white just makes it appear dull. Your white space would not add in room at any point. So basically trust your gut and avoid white. Anything other than white should be chosen carefully.

Interesting and Sharp Colors
The color that you are planning to paint your house with is what will make it appear interesting and beautiful. The small space will suddenly appear large or even fitting because of the color you paint it with. So make sure you choose an interesting palette. Clear colors are really good for the walls of small spaces. Make sure they are sharp bright colors that you are choosing to paint the walls of your small space with. You can include a lot of yellows, blues, greens and reds to paint your room. Make sure you include nice color combinations with the negative space. This will just increase the openness in the whole atmosphere.

Color from Within
While walls of the small room are surely going to be your first area of interest, this is not the only space you will need to recreate. You need to color the spaces from within too. Coloring the bookshelves or the windowsill is a great idea. Make sure you use a dark color to color that instance. You will give it a nice appearance in that way.

Focal Walls are Pleasant
An interesting concept raised by designers includes focal walls. This creates a whole lot of space in small rooms. You will see that when painting small spaces you need to be creative. So instead of painting the whole room yellow and adding no charm to it, you can color one wall yellow and the other red or something. You can mix the colors to increase the space of your living. You can even do some art work along one wall to increase the space and make the room look beautiful.
