Interior designer Trudy Hurley has loved a large-patterned blue-and-white fabric since childhood and was determined to use it on the walls of her low-ceilinged bedroom. Using a blue-and-white color scheme and a few essential pieces, Trudy has made her small bedroom seem larger than it is. To make a small room look bigger, she suggests selecting a few oversized furniture pieces, using bold wall coverings and window treatments, painting a lattice design on floors, choosing simple bed linens and keeping ceilings white to reflect the light. Tips: - Don't be afraid to use large pieces in a room -- just limit the number of pieces.
- Use boldly patterned wall coverings to add interest.
- Paint a lattice pattern on wood floors, incorporating the colors of the room.
- Choose bed linens that are simple in style and light in color.
- Keep the ceiling white to reflect light.
