If, according to the project, there are bottlenecks, they can be visually expanded or extended.
For this, there are special mirrors-deceptions.
Such mirrors can be placed in the hallway, living room and dining room.
If you want to visually raise the ceiling, use stretched glossy inserts on the ceilings.
In modern conditions there is no traditional kitchen, dining room and living room separated from each other - now it's very nice to combine all these rooms in the studio.
If from the door of the hallway all your rooms are lined up in a single line, you can very stylishly decorate it in the form of a suite.
