4Keep the Base Light

The walls, the floor and the furniture… Choose all of them to be light in color to brighten up the space and make it look much more open. Use colors and patterns only as the accent in small amounts.

12Go Low

In small living rooms, it is a good idea to use lower and smaller furniture which will make the room look open rather than tall and big ones that cramp up the space.

48Corners

Utilize the corners of a small living room by placing low shelves to hold books. If you choose them to be the same colors as your walls, you can make them disappear into the background and make the room appear much bigger.

52Grey

Light shades of grey are a good idea to decorate a small living room for those who are not in favor of using color.
53Designed by Katharine Paravicini Interiors
54Modern

Clear lines of the modern style as well as the reflective metals help open and brighten up the space, making it look clean and simple.
55Big Patterns

If you have a piece of decor that has big patterns, make it the focal point of the room and keep everything else neutral and simple such as this black and white patterned rug in the middle of a grey and white living room.
56Warm Colors

Using warm tones only as the accent color can help make your small living room cozy and inviting.
57Only White

Using only white in a small living room is the easiest but the most efficient option to make the space look bigger and brighter.
58Black

Using black can be tricky in a small living room decor. You can paint only one wall to contrast the white walls to add depth to the room. Choosing a few décors in black would complement the accent wall without making the room gloomy.
