2. Choose Your Lampshades Carefully

If your room has lighting that requires lampshades, choose these shades carefully. Darker lampshades tend to hold the light in more, resulting in a darker room. You are going to want to select lighter lampshades to allow for more light in the room. A well-lit room will always appear much more open that a badly lit one.

3. Multitask Your Lighting

Lighting a small space requires that you are a little more creative than you would be with a big space. Floor lamps are a great source of light to multitask with. They serve as a task light, as they can be placed next to a chair, as well as additional lighting in a room. Since floor lamps go upwards, they keep the eyes drawn up and also take up minimal space.
