1. Colour your Walls

Light colours can automatically make a room look bigger. When the sunlight enters the room it brightens up the surroundings as the light reflects off. Using light colours to make the office room look bigger is a great choice. Dark colours absorb light therefore, dark colours make the room look smaller. For the best effect, you can paint your house with light hues such as white, blue, or green. 

2. Natural lighting

I have installed a desk near my window and the natural light makes my office room look automatically bigger. I have decorated my office with some plants and flowers and desk lamps just to brighten up my workspace. You can do the same to make your small office room look big.
