In today’s story, we will introduce you to interesting solutions for transforming interior design in a room without windows. You will learn how you can use French doors, white paint, draperies and other elements to decorate your living space and create an attractive visual effect.
A windowless room looks subdued and dark, but you can easily transform it using simple design techniques..
1. Mirrors.
Adding these accessories to your décor is one of the main ways to simulate the effect of windows, as they not only wonderfully refract artificial glow, but also bring a sense of depth to the room..
In a space with a low ceiling, panoramic reflective surfaces can distract guests from this architectural feature..

2. White wall decor.
The light color palette in the interior of the room allows you to fill it with freshness and imitate natural solar radiation. Choose a solid color for walls and ceilings.

3. A large number of works of art.
Amazing paintings and canvases of painting in a wooden frame dilute the monotonous walls and create an optical illusion of a window opening.

4. French doors.
The addition of this structural element increases the space of the apartment remarkably. Use a few cool fluorescent ceiling lights for your decor to create the illusion of daylight.

5. Hidden backlight.
LED strips in home decor can create an optical sensation of natural radiation. Try placing lights between beams, behind furniture (such as behind a sofa), or next to a bookcase for a more mysterious glow..

6. Transoms.
Another architectural way to add a non-specific light source is to arrange a window opening between the hall and the adjoining room..

7. Internal frames.
These ingenious designs help to visually unite different rooms, allowing light to be evenly distributed between them. To create a private space, you can decorate interior window openings with draperies or blinds..

8. Frosted glass.
Using it when decorating walls in the kitchen helps to hide clutter from prying eyes and gently filter light..

9. Hidden backlight.
Diode strips, equipped along the edge of the kitchen set, will not only illuminate the worktop wonderfully, but will also form a cozy and aesthetic atmosphere in the room.

10. Ceiling with exposure
. An excellent way to illuminate a dark hallway is to equip a small hatch on the landing. Durable and safe glass perfectly transmits natural glow and perfectly transforms the atmosphere of the apartment.
