The size of a room does not matter. Instead, the decoration within the area is what makes all the difference. Although there are many design references available, we can still get a little confused while decorating the space. That is why the simplest thing is to follow the following basic rules of decoration, especially for small rooms. 

8 Decoration rules for small rooms

- Do not saturate a room with unnecessary furniture and objects.

- Try considering an open concept between the living and dining room.

- Neutral colors are best suited to decorate a small room.

- Play with bright and definite colors to visually enlarge the space of your room.

- You should also choose artificial lighting which is ideal for highlighting specific areas in addition to the natural light.

- Always include a mirror to expand the space of a small room visually.

- To create an ideal distribution make sure that the furniture does not obstruct the access or light.

- Take advantage of the walls to the maximum for storage.
