Some Simple Ways to Make the Most of Smaller Spaces

By josh October 23, 2014

Oftentimes, life can make even the most important rooms in your home feel cramped and cluttered. You don’t have to have tens of thousands of dollars to make an addition to your home – instead, following a few simple tips will help make even tight spaces seem roomy and open. The window replacement team at Window Works has helped thousands of homeowners get the most out of all the spaces in their homes. To begin, we recommend:

·  Use a Light or Pastel Color Scheme
Dark and bright paints tend to make a space feel less open and more cramped, while a light or pastel color theme will help make the room feel more open and full.

·  Limit Furniture and Accessories
Furniture and accessories help bring character to any room, but too much of a good thing will make the space you do have seem limited. Reduce your furniture to the essentials, and coordinate the design with the rest of the room if possible.

·  Make Use of Mirrors
Mirrors are a relatively inexpensive option that will make any space seem several times bigger. Smaller mirrors can be used as decorations, or you can opt for full-length mirrors along the wall of your choice.

·  Bow and Bay Windows
Adding a bow window or a bay window will help extend the wall of your home and provide additional space that immediately draws the eye. Window Works carries a number of energy efficient options for bow and bay windows, as well as many other designs.
