How to Brighten your Living Space
We have stated briefly that creating a desirable atmosphere in your space is not dependent so much on how much you spend. There are many ways in which you can maximize your space, use light and other tricks to create the type of ambience that you want. The following are some tips to help you along:-

Furniture that’s lighter in color goes a long way in brightening up a space. Choose pieces that have neutral tones such as whites, off white, pastels and creams. These colors reflect natural light making a room appear more spacious. Light colored upholstery and curtains also contribute to creating a brighter ambience.
Furniture with reflective surfaces such as mirrors or glass amplifies the available light in a space to create further illusion of brightness.
Prioritize Open and Airy Designs
When you go shopping for furniture, consider pieces or sets with open and airy designs. Bulky pieces have a way of making a room feel cramped and also limit the flow of natural light. Therefore it is recommended that you go for minimalistic and streamlined designs that enable free circulation of light.

Maximize Natural Light with Smart Placement
Place your furniture strategically to optimize the natural light in the room. Arrange the seating area near window so that you can take advantage of daylight to create a bright and welcoming atmosphere.

Incorporate Statement Pieces and Accents
Incorporate high end statement accents and pieces to add personality and visual appeal to a room. Placing a well-designed couch, an elegant accent chair or a sleek coffee table in strategic corners of a room can raise the ambience of the room.
