If you have a small apartment or room that you’re struggling to decorate, you’re not alone!

Luckily, we have some tricks that will breathe new life into your living area. Making it seem much larger than it actually is.

Here are some of our top tips and tricks to make your room look bigger.

1. Use vertical space. Add pictures and built-in shelves that extend from the floor to the ceiling. By drawing the eye upwards, you’ll make rooms seem larger.

2. Use furniture with legs to create an airy, open feel. This is particularly useful in the bedroom!

3. Whenever possible use your walls. Instead of side tables mount lamps onto walls. Install wall shelves instead of using cabinets. This will let you enjoy your items, without extra tables or cabinets taking up your much-needed space!

4. Use a light palette. You don’t need to stick to white. Look at pastels, shades of grey, or white mixed with a bright or mid-tone colour!

5. Play around with rugs. Placing your rug at one end of your tables or bed and having only half of the furniture on it will create an elongated effect.

“My salesperson, Lina, is the soul of patience. I am a decorator, and frequently bring my clients to Direct Interiors because of their wide and beautiful selection. For my most recent shopping excursion, Lina readily provided multiple quotes while my clients weighed all options. She researched alternatives for pieces that weren’t available. She was a fantastic resource as usual.

I have always found the sales and support staff at Direct to be very accommodating and service oriented. I highly recommend Direct Interiors to design professionals and anyone who is interested in creating a beautiful home.”

– Mary Bannet

Sleepover plans at 4 p.m. Somehow, three kids are staying over by 8. 😅

That’s when a kids’ room that does double duty earns its keep. The trundle rolls out when an extra bed is needed, then tucks back underneath when morning comes, giving them more room for friends without giving up more room every day. It can even step in as extra storage between sleepovers.

Double duty, without the double footprint. Now all you need to figure out is whether they’re actually going to sleep. 😉

Subtle? We don`t know her. 💜🔥

A wall full of colour, a little gold, sculptural accents, and a pop of emerald green. Every detail in this setup has a personality of its own, yet somehow, they all get along.

Proof that bold design isn`t about choosing one statement piece. It`s about knowing how to make them work together. ✨

Natural texture has a way of making a room feel less designed and more lived in. These sculptural wood tables bring warmth, irregularity and just the right amount of contrast to an otherwise soft, neutral space. 🤎

What if your walls could move? 🕊️

Not literally, of course. But there`s something about a flock of birds in flight that makes an entire room feel alive.

The contrast, the movement, the way your eye follows every little detail. This is how you make a statement without adding a single piece of furniture.

Some artwork doesn`t just hang on the wall. It owns the room. 🐎
The dramatic black backdrop, soft white mane, and incredible detail make this oversized horse portrait impossible to walk past without taking a second look.
And sometimes, that`s exactly what a room needs. One piece that does all the talking. 🤍

The difference between a furnished room and a finished room? The styling. 👀
A sculptural vase, a few well-placed accessories, layered cushions, and artwork that ties it all together.
It`s not about adding more. It`s about knowing what belongs where.
Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference. ✨

October’s colour palette understood the assignment. 🍂

Espresso brown, cognac, cream, aged brass and just enough black. Rich without feeling heavy, warm without a single pumpkin in sight.

This is fall, interior-design coded.

Who said everything on the wall has to be framed art? 👀

Three circular mirrors, a little sculptural drama, and suddenly the entire wall becomes the conversation piece.

The trick? Repetition creates rhythm, while unexpected textures keep things interesting. Same shape. Different perspective. ✨

Why hang art when the entire wall can become the artwork? 🌿

A scenic wall covering transforms an ordinary surface into a world of its own—adding depth, scale, and a sense of escape that paint simply can’t replicate.

One wall. An entirely different atmosphere. ✨
