Decorate: Use full-size furniture to a small space Feel larger - In the furniture market today, furniture 'compact' is a common solution for modern living small space. But I think you can often get the greatest impact and the most satisfactory results, with an approach less-is-more. Rather than choose smaller furniture, indulging in a bit full scale (or even over-sized) pieces can create the appearance of a full-size space without compromise.

Filling unused vertical space is a great way to get major impact in a room without narrowing of the useful surface. A large plant with leaves like this violin fig-leaves in a corner of the room do not interfere with the flow of traffic, but makes the most sophisticated and lively piece (while helping the visually float background below).

low ceilings
natural tendency in a space with a low ceiling can be to try to reduce everything to avoid attracting attention, but this can make the overall effect more tight and claustrophobic. Instead, try balancing pieces of low level (such as globe lights on the floor and sofa low back) with some elements of great size, like an oversized floor lamp, using every inch of the height is available.
This is particularly effective under a slanted ceiling, because to light a few feet from the wall can take advantage of the additional margin and draw attention away from where the ceiling is at its lowest.

in a room shaped tight tunnel, rather than break the space into several micro-zones, embracing the length and fit in a full-size sofa. When you watch TV or read a book, you will not mind the sofa facing a wall (extending and enjoy additional lounging space) and just passing through, you will notice that the space seems extra long.

Similarly, in a dining area, a large bench that fills the entire back wall will create the appearance of a large private booth, while many individual seats could create the appearance of a dining eating too cramped.

Another way to maximize dining area is to use a large sofa to the big statement, and pair it with visually open chairs or stools that will not attract attention. This will give you enough seats for guests and a plush spot in which to curl up in your daily meals.

seats
the logic of dining seats applies to the living room and large seat, continuous give you a comfortable place to stretch each day. Several compact chairs (which can be taken from the dining room if required) or a plush ottoman can maximize seating when you have company

Large art
in general, using fewer, larger pieces creates a look that said you had plenty of space to work with, not unless you want to, and this is especially important on vertical surfaces ( like the eye notices the first).
