As you know, color greatly affects the visual perception of space. Often, light shades work to visually increase the square meters, while dark and bright colors “eat up” the space. But not everyone likes being in a sterile white or boring beige room. If you belong to such a group of people, then dilute the monotony of the interior with bright accents. Pick up textiles of your favorite shade, put an interesting lamp on the bedside table or decorate the wall with a bright poster.

2. More light
Good lighting in a small bedroom.
Color and light are a sweet couple. They are side by side in the interior. Therefore, in addition to the right color, you should also choose good lighting. First of all, pay attention to the windows, if any in the room. Free them from all that is superfluous, remove bulky blackout curtains, if any. Replace them with compact roman shades. During the day, maximum natural light will flow through your windows, and at night you can hide from the curious glances of neighbors from the house opposite.
Do not cover the window with heavy curtains.
For light sources in the evening, use one or more compact ceiling lights. A chandelier with a directional light is also suitable for the role of the main source of lighting. Install a sconce near the bed or place a small lamp on the bedside table. Additionally, use furniture lighting or ordinary garlands.

Catwalk beds or loft beds are especially good in such rooms. This piece of furniture solves several problems at once and can be used as a wardrobe. And there are options with built-in tables.

It can be installed in one of the corners of the room.
