　　1.Reduce the placement height of decorations

The design concept of "less is more" has been enduring from its inception to its popularity, precisely due to its local influenceOnly monotony can compare to the overall excitement and completeness.

In small spaces, the walls should be left blank as much as possible, because in order to ensure storage space, there are already many high cabinets in the room. If more decorations or photos are hung on the empty walls, it will be visually too crowded. If you feel that the wall lacks decoration and lacks interest, you can choose a color accessory or decorative painting from the main color tone in the room. Be sure not to be too out of style in the color tone and not let the space become cluttered due to the addition of more colors. Properly lowering the placement of accessories to be below the horizontal line of sight when standing can not only enrich the spatial atmosphere but also reduce visual barriers.

Everyone knows that mercury mirror is a good material for extending and expanding space;However, if used too much or in an unsuitable place, it will have the opposite effect, either becoming a practice room or a high-end dressing room.

Therefore, in order to achieve unity and coordination in interior design, straight lines are often used as design symbols;Furthermore, the linear characteristic itself is simple and pure, which does not particularly attract visual attention for a long time.

　　4.Try to use fewer small pieces of material as much as possible

In small spaces, especially in kitchens and bathrooms, which are more limited and visually crowded compared to other spaces, it is best not to use tiles or mosaics that are too small in size. This will increase the edges and give a dazzling feeling, invisibly reducing the space feeling;Instead, choose tempered glass or epoxy resin paint to decorate the walls, creating a clean, bright, and transparent space;The top can be equipped with waterproof gypsum board and waterproof paint to enhance the overall coordination with the ground and highlight the expansion tension on the surface.

　　5.Minimalist treatment at the top of the room

The ancients often said:Simplicity, in addition to being understood literally, can also further strengthen and extend this concept - it is completely possible to not do any unnecessary decoration treatment, only make the functions sufficient. This principle should be implemented even more for small apartments.

Suspended ceiling is a decorative technique that can enhance the style of a room, but it will occupy a portion of the room's height space. Nowadays, everyone knows not to make complex suspended ceilings in small houses, and even not to do so. However, simplifying the top decoration can also simplify the materials and colors. Regardless of the decorative materials or colors used on the walls of the house, it is best to choose a white tone on the top surface to make people ignore the roof, which also plays a visual extension role.

　　6.Uniform color tone, with a focus on light tones

Color plays a huge role in space, especially for small spaces. In visually cramped situations, the choice of wall color is most important because when entering the space, you can directly see the wall, and the wall area is the largest, which also has the greatest impact on vision.

The floor, ceiling, and even large-sized furniture and accessories also need to be coordinated with the wall. The color tone should be consistent, such as warm tones such as red and orange yellow;Cool tones, such as indigo;There are also neutral colors such as green and purple, as well as colorless colors such as gold, silver, and black and white gray. Light, usually referring to the brightness and purity of colors.

In the selection of wall materials, texture is particularly crucial, and small spaces do not necessarily only require the use of a single coating or hard materials such as metal and bricks. Soft texture materials, such as wallpaper, can not only enhance the atmosphere of the room, but also complement the furniture and accessories in the room, weakening the sense of hierarchy and making the space more spacious.

　　8.Properly make a small amount of transparent partitions

Choose the appropriate location to design small volume partition decorations. A simple and bright partition will reflect the effect of a space that seems to be separated but not separated. For example, the shape can be small squares or the repetition of other simple lines. The color can be matte or baked white, giving people a thin, simple, and transparent impression;The frontal area of the partition should not exceed the wall area1/5Scale and proportion are elements that reflect whether the spatial effect is comfortable, and they are also important criteria for measuring the design skills of professional designers.

　　9.More indirect lighting using side light sources

Due to the limited space and relatively low floor height, it is advisable to minimize the use of large ceiling lighting fixtures for direct illumination, and instead opt for indirect lighting with side light sources to conceal the lighting fixtures and achieve the effect of not seeing the lights. This will release a greater sense of space.
