The Inman Company added this to Small Space Solutions: 7 Ways to Make a Bedroom Look Bigger
1. Add built-in shelvingShallow built-in shelving can help you gain storage and maintain floor space. Stick to shelving that’s no more than 30cm deep. The units here act as bedside tables, eliminating the need for extra furniture. Recessing the bed in the middle of the shelving prevents it from encroaching on much-needed floor space. If you go with built-ins in your small bedroom, try taking them all the way to the ceiling to make the ceiling look higher. And paint the back wall a contrasting colour to create layering and depth.Maximise your bedroom storage

1. Simple circulationTry to keep your circulation on one side of the room. Hotels do a great job of this. There’s a reason 90 per cent of hotels have the same floor plan: because it’s simple and it works. Circulation plans become a little more challenging with en suite rooms (bedrooms with bathrooms attached) or bedrooms that have doors to the outside.
