You can't stretch a foot to measure more than 12 inches, but you can make it look a yard wide, with a few simple tricks:
Lighting. Forget window draperies. Place fluorescent lights behind valances, under cabinets, over work places. Forego floor lamps and mount wall lamps instead.
Color. Keep to one, two or (at the most) three light colors that blend and flow from one room to another.
Carpeting. Use one carpet color throughout the house.
Mirrors. Double the size of a room and bring the outdoor window view inside with mirror walls. Mirror the lighting under kitchen cabinets.
Built-ins. Wherever you can tuck a cabinet, shelf, or small table, you make awkward spots usable.
Furnishings. Choose small-scale with simple lines furniture and place it against the walls, leaving plenty of open space.

2 Comments on 6 Ways to Maximize Small Living Space
A big one that we are doing in our condo conversion project is adding a tank-less hot water heater. It gave us an extra linen closet where the large bulky hot water heater used to be!
Yes those are really great......I have been waiting for my almost new water heater to go out so that I can buy a tank less...but I have to run gas up to my house as I have not really found any electric ones that seem to efficient.....if you have please let me know......
