How to make small spaces with big impact

Who said small can’t be mighty? When space is limited, you don’t need more stuff, you need the right stuff. It’s not about filling the room, it’s about filling it with personality. Think clever storage, multifunctional pieces, and a mirror or two to work some magic.

Mirrors are your best friend

If I could hand out mirrors like party favours, I would. They bounce light around the room, make spaces feel bigger, and add that instant lift to your home. Go for a big round one in the hallway, or lean a tall mirror against a bedroom wall for that effortlessly cool look. Bonus points if the frame adds a bit of texture or contrast.

Multifunctional is the way to go

Small spaces love a multitasker. Benches with hidden storage, stools that moonlight as side tables, foldable chairs that you can tuck away. These pieces pull double duty, save you space, and make you look like an interiors genius. Form, meet function.

Think up, not out

When floor space is scarce, I always say: look up. Floating shelves, tall storage, wall hooks — they draw the eye upwards and give you room to breathe down below. Plus, it makes your space feel curated, not cluttered.

Lighting makes or breaks it

Forget one sad ceiling light, small spaces need lighting layers. Compact lamps on shelves, wall sconces instead of bulky floor lamps, soft glows in every corner. Good lighting doesn’t just help you see, it sets the mood and makes the whole room feel intentional.

Keep it light & airy

Think light curtains, soft tones, and furniture with slim legs or open frames. That way, the space feels fresh and open, even when it’s fully styled. Let your personality shine through in small details: a colourful cushion here, a statement vase there.
