Having a spacious apartment with big windows and plenty of sunlight during the day is the luxury that many of us can’t afford. Fortunately, there are some pretty easy hacks to make your apartment look bright.

Read on to find out how.

Embrace white walls

The easiest way to brighten up a small and dark apartment is to paint your walls with lighter colors, preferably white. Decorate with white curtains that’ll blend perfectly into your walls and the sunshine will never leave your apartment again.

Go minimal

Decluttering your apartment and going minimal is another great option to brighten up a space and make it more enjoyable. Grab a bunch of light-colored storage boxes and put away all those things that create a mess in your apartment.

Avoid Dark Furniture

The last thing you want to do in an apartment with limited natural light is to fill it with dark, chunky furniture. Light, pastel colors and glass are your friends here because they create the illusion of brighter space.

Mirrors

Using mirrors to maximize natural light is an awesome trick – not only useful but decorative as well. Place them strategically opposite your windows and the sunshine will bounce off and fill your apartment.
