The windows also play an important role in the development of space, so do not clutter them and favor light curtains in linen or cotton.

The essential mirrors: 

Mirrors reflect light and reflect your interior in them, they immediately create an impression of grandeur. Whether large or small, vintage or new, mirrors bring volume, so it is an asset not to be overlooked!

Low or hanging furniture allows to clear the visual field and to open the space. The positioning of the furniture is equally important and allows you to create defined living areas.

Furniture, paint or layout, all avenues can be customized according to the room and your needs. Remember that a warm and welcoming interior, whatever its size, will be much more pleasant to live in.
