8 Ways to Make a Room Look Larger

  Don’t be afraid of a little color or bold pattern. A modern, bold geometric patterned wallpaper or stencil can really amplify a space and make it seem more expansive than it really is. Try it on an accent wall leaving the other walls a neutral color, and accessorize with bright colors sprinkled strategically throughout the room. If you have a small bathroom, a bright color can really make it pop.  Place mirrors strategically for the illusion of more space. Mirrors in a room add an elegant touch, but they also reflect light, making a small room appear larger. Placing mirrors across from windows not only reflect the most light, but give the illusion of added depth. When placed on either side of a headboard, mirrors can make the room look wider.

Vertical Stair Railing is SO Last Year

You've been in a dozen two story and split level homes and you likely don't even remember what the stairs looked like, or if you do recall, they very likely had a builder grade honey oak bannister with matching honey oak spindles. So basic it may as well be wearing leggings with Ugg's.  Those are the stairs of yesteryear. Today's stairs are modern, sculptural, and anything but basic. These cool, contemporary designs accommodate everyone's design aesthetic.  Ultra modern stairs for the ultra modern minimalist. This clear view gives perfect modern loft vibes. Pickup sticks; like vertical spindles, but not quite. For the naturalists: bringing elements and colors of nature inside. Bringing modernized elements of farmhouse style into the home is very on-trend  right now, and these staircases are no exception! Large wooden posts like the kind you might find fencing in a pasture are  what make the farmhouse feel in these staircase designs. Simple horizontal slats that devi
