HOW TO DO MORE WITH LESS :

After you have a confirmed furniture layout floor plan, you can then create drama with lighting, drapery and applied architectural details. Designer Veronica Martin suggests the following:

When it comes to lighting, make large statements. It’s easier to make the mistake of a light fixture that is too small rather than too big.

Think of your eye-level space as an opportunity to create drama.

Drapery should always extend from the floor to the ceiling; this creates the illusion of height.

Your walls can add a lot of design impact with applied architectural mouldings. Think of your wall space as square footage to develop and design.
