Using wall mirrors is one thing - adding mirrors to you closet doors will make the room automatically look bigger and lighter.
Add more glass - glass doors, glass internal door, glass or acrylic table tops - they allow light to go through and keep it in the room.
Pendant lights, along with shiny reflective appliances are a must in larger kitchens with little natural light.
Neutral, muted walls are perfect for larger rooms with little natural light in the middle of the rooms. The back mirror is framed with more mirrors for full effect.
This hallway uses mirrors, light walls and brass fittings to keep every bit of light in the middle of the room.
