Top 3 Ways To Make A Small Office Seem Larger
By PASAN PERERA
While smaller spaces are often easier to clean, easier to maintain, and more affordable, you may feel cramped while working in a small room. However, there are plenty of ways to make your small office feel more grand.
Since lighter colors are reflective, painting your office a lighter color makes the room feel more airy and spacious. Dark colors are not all bad though, as a dark hue can make a small space cozy and make the edges of the room feel hazy — giving the feel of a broader space.
You want functional furniture that leaves ample room for traffic and movement, so custom-made furniture and mirrors make all the difference. Placing furniture a few inches away from the wall makes the office feel less cramped and more open.
Lighting is crucial for a small office, so make use of your windows and take advantage of natural lighting. If you don’t have natural light, you can use hanging light fixtures like pendants or chandeliers, but stay away from floor lamps, which take up a lot of room.
