By April 2, 2014October 16th, 2023No Comments

When it comes to living in a cramped home, you need to think creatively about making the most of the limited space. Squeezing a family of five — including your pets — can pose several logistical challenges. But you have to manage how to make a compact space feel like a roomy home. You can make tiny rooms seem larger by using small-scale furniture. You can also maximize space by flooding the rooms with natural sunlight using bay windows. Also, even if you have a limited floor plan, you can try building a higher ceiling to increase the sense of space. This predicament was cited by this article:
