Choose light pastel shades for walls. If you use a wallpaper, then take one of the following options: monochrome, in a small non-contrast pattern or with vertical stripes (also non-contrasting). Do not use the "curb" labeling scheme.
2
Floor and ceiling, too, make light. The floor covering can be made of light glossy tiles, laminate or parquet. Do not cover the floor with a large carpet, place a small light mat in the middle of the room or near the sofa. Stretched glossy ceiling will make the room higher.

Add mirrors and glass to the interior.surface. Hang large sheets of mirrors on the wall. Choose the location most suitable for your room: partially close one of the walls from floor to ceiling; make a mirror angle that will create a perspective; pick mirrors about half the height of the wall, starting with the ceiling. The latter option will create the illusion of the partition and the continuation of the space behind it.
4
Use a cabinet with mirror or glass doors and a table with a glass surface. Just do not allow the reflection of the mirror in the mirror.

Curtains, furniture, accessories match the tone to the wallpaper. The less they stand out against the background of the walls, the less space will be "taken away." Provide removable covers, as light furniture gets dirty quite quickly.
