Choose your paint and flooring options carefully. You can influence how big a room looks with the colors you choose to paint on the walls and the flooring options you choose to give a room. These can be fairly inexpensive changes and can make a huge difference.

  • Ceilings - Starting at the top is best. You should paint your ceiling stark white to make it look like it is far away and give the room an airier feel.
  • Walls - Wall colors should be light. It doesn't mean you have to live in a white world. You can choose any number of light-colored neutrals or pastels. You can also choose a semi-gloss or other option with some shine to it which will give the room a bigger feel. Choosing cool colors such as green, blue, and purples will give a bigger feel then warmer colors.
  • Trim - Trim should be painted the same color as the room or a lighter shade. Having trim be darker will make it feel like the walls are coming at you. While painting the trim the same color or, better yet, a lighter color will make it feel like they are receding.
  • Flooring - If you have the option, choosing the right flooring can make a huge difference. Wood options should be light in color, wide (8-10"), and diagonal if possible. The light color will continue to keep things feeling larger. Wider width boards will make the place less busy than smaller ones and laying them on a diagonal will make the room feel lots bigger (diagonal lines are longer than straight walls). Tile choices should be light in color, consist of a solid color and avoid patterns, and they should be larger (10-12"). Laying them on a diagonal can also help make the room feel bigger. Carpet should be solid in color and fairly light. Tan is an option that works well. ...
