Here are some tips to make small living rooms look bigger with laminates.

1. Light-Colored Laminates

One of the easiest ways to make a room feel bigger is by choosing light colors. When either white, cream, beige, or light grey laminates are picked, it allows more light to be reflected within the room. The airy look is created by opening this part of the room. Floors, walls, cabinets, or furniture can all be lined with light-colored laminates. If you choose a light color for your laminate floor and your walls, together they can open up the space and make it feel less crowded.

2. Simple and Clean Patterns

Busy or dark patterns can overwhelm a small room and make it feel cluttered. When you use laminates with simple natural grain or texture, your countertops will look neat and calm. Without clear, dark lines, the whole space seems brighter and tidier. If you choose simple patterns and bring them close to the walls, on shelves or a table, your room won’t feel overcrowded.

3. Multi-Purpose Laminated Furniture

All your furniture needs to serve multiple purposes in a limited space. Having storage in your coffee tables and TV stands can save space in your home. Decorative laminate sheets are both strong and simple to clean, so they fit well on a variety of furniture items. If your furniture is nice to use and attractive, it helps to keep the room looking clean and bigger. Go for light laminates to ensure your tables and chairs blend nicely with the rest of the room.

4. Laminated Floating Shelves

Floating shelves are a great option for small living room laminate because they don’t take up floor space. Laminated floating shelves in lighter colors give you more space for storing or displaying books, plants, or decorations, keeping the area organized. They use up blank spaces on the wall and keep everything tidy. When you use the same color for your laminates as your wall or furniture, the entire space appears smooth.

5. Right Floor Laminates

Selecting flooring is the first step to building the right look for any room. If you choose white oak, soft grey, or beige for your laminate, it will look like the room is larger. Rare use of joints allows the room to appear more expansive to the eye. Instead, you can add some gloss to your laminate planks to create a stunning and spacious appearance in your room.

6. Light Laminates on Window Frames

Window frames in dark colors can stand out too much and visually shrink a room. If your windows have lighter laminates, it will give the walls, furniture, and windows a cohesive, single effect. Because of this softness, the entire room looks larger and calmer. White or cream framing on windows improves the feeling of openness in any living space.

7. Laminates on Doors for Spaciousness

Doors usually occupy a large portion of the focal space in compact places. Having light laminate on doors helps the wall and the door to seem the same, making the room appear neat and not too busy. Using light-colored laminate or wood is your best option to get this appearance. Using the same laminate on the wall and the door creates a flat, open space that enlarges the room’s look. On top of that, local doors are convenient to clean and can handle a lot of wear and tear well.
