To make a bedroom look as large as possible keep the contrast in colors minimal, but add textural variety. Mirrored and Lucite furnishings take up less visual space because they reflect light. So does a polished wooden floor verses wall to wall carpeting. Window treatments can be layered for light control but the design and hardware should remain streamlined. If you love wallpaper and want to surround the room in pattern, choose a 1/2 drop match of curved motifs. The scale can be large but by keeping the number of patterns to a minimum, there is no frame of reference for your eye to “measure” the room. To really make the edges of the room dissapear make a wall glass, or take it away entirely.
