Also better little heavy furniture, straight and not too large to help give a sense of spaciousness. Transparent plastic chairs or skate or thin legs will also be a good option that helps us not overload the space.

4. Take advantage of the color

We know the importance of color in our lives and also when defining spaces. We have talked about it in several occasions and, without a doubt, it is a subject that cannot be ignored when we speak of a reduced space. The colors we use can help us create an optical effect of greater width or depth and thus make a room grow before our eyes.

For this light colors are the best because they will help us to enhance the light and make everything more spacious. The white and its wide range would be the ideal color for walls and ceilings and we could qualify it with color notes in accessories such as chairs, desk items, etc. But creams, stones and yellows are also ideal colors to make any space grow before our eyes. Everything will depend on your preferences!

The roof is another element that can play in our favor and that we should take into account in the decoration of small offices. If we paint it white or the same color as the rest of the walls, we will gain meters. We can also help with the use of moldings or borders that are placed near the ceiling and create the feeling of greater height of the walls.

But if the white bores you can also opt for blue a color that reminds us of open spaces and helps us to enlarge them visually. If you want to give a note of color you can do it with a wall but better avoid too strident colors or wallpapers with large drawings that will occupy too much space visually.

5. Unify Furniture and walls

Another very effective trick is the so-called chromatic unit, that is, to unify furniture and walls to make the furniture lose in them and give us a feeling that the space is wider. White is undoubtedly the best option to achieve this goal in which we avoid the feeling of crowded space using the same color range throughout. To not be too boring or monotonous play with the accessories or even with a wall that provides movement and strength.
