Make your compact kitchen feel more spacious with these visual tricks:
- Brighten Up: Well-placed lighting can make a small kitchen feel bigger and more inviting.
- Light Tones: Light colors can make a room feel more open and less cramped.
- Mirrored Details: Shiny surfaces like mirrored backsplashes add depth and light to small spaces.
