Decorating a house is not an easy job. It requires lot of consideration, time, money, and energy. Deciding which thing should be placed where and how many things you can put in a room is not easy. If you have a big house and a lot of space to work with, you can decide things easily but things get worse when you have to work with small areas and rooms. In most houses nowadays, the living areas or lunges are small. Because of the falling economy of the world, the pays has been decreased and the prices of things have been increased too much and many people do not afford big houses. People who have small families also like small houses so that they can sit around and chat after a tiring day at works and schools.

There was a time when people used to have drawing rooms for their guests but nowadays people only have living areas or lounges where their guests sit when they visit. Therefore, it is very important to decorate these places with lots of consideration. No matter if, the area of the place is big or small, most people want it to feel big and open. There are many things a person can do with a small space to make it look big, airy and lively. This article will give you some simple tips so that you can decorate your small lounge space in a way that will make it look big and open.
Light furniture with simple lines
The most important thing is choose the lounge furniture you are going to put in the room. It is a understandable thing that you cannot put heavy or big furniture in a small room. So select the furniture, which is simple and small but classy. It is also a good idea to select the color of the fabric or the furniture in light shapes. The dark shades will make the area look somewhat black and stuffy. If you have a beautiful looking floor in your house, you would want it to be seen, so the better idea is to place furniture with legs. Use the tables in glass or you can also use metal tables but wood tables will not look good in a lounge.
Lighter color scheme
No matter which type of furniture you choose, if the room has dark color scheme, all your effort to make it look big and airy will be wasted. If the walls and color scheme of the room is in lighter shade and the furniture is in dark shade, the room will still look open but in opposite case, the whole area will look dark and stuffy. Do not use more than two colors in lounge. Monochromatic scheme is best if you want to use texture in the room. Keep the floor in lighter shade too it will enhance the look of the house.
Other tips
