Smart interior design tricks everyone should know

Sometimes the smallest things make the biggest difference. You may be looking to enhance the look of your place and you have no idea where to start from, or you are about to move in to a new place which doesn’t look like your style, your place is too old and an interior designer is going to cost a lot more, well don’t worry as we have packed a few smart tricks that can make every place look like bespoke home design place with minimal efforts and low cost.

• Lighter tones can make a room feel larger

A small room can make the place look all cramped up and suffocating. One way to avoid that is by painting the room in lighter shades of yellow, white, brown or whatever colour you like as long as it is in the lighter shades. The idea behind the lighter tone is the light that would reflect across the room rather than being absorbed by the walls. This is the same technique that keeps the white car engines cooler than the black ones.

• Mirrors are your best friend

If you have a living room that lacks the source of natural light or an empty wall which needs a decor or a room which is significantly small then mirrors are there to help you. They can help you in making a room light up just by placing them right in front of a window which is your only natural light source, it will spread light like fire all across the room. You have a huge empty wall which you don’t know how to fill up because all of the others have taken the shelves, paintings and different decorating stuff so what you need to put is a decorative mirror on that wall.

• Mix and match. That’s the way you do it.

You have a beautiful vase which is old and broken but it is your family heirloom and you can’t let it go that easily because of course antiques hold their importance, but at the same time you have a really beautiful chic minimalistic modern shelf and you are wondering if these two would go together. Well yes, absolutely these two will look brilliant together because it is all about mix and match. And it is exactly what villa interior design is about.
