I have a tendency to cram too much in a small space, so I have learned to go vertical for storage and double duty furniture like footstools that hold storage. Bins on shelves or in cubbies really helps.
Yes, go vertical.
Also, try to go minimal and only keep what sparks joy

I too like the tall bookcases, and you can use basket or fabric cubes to hide some items. I also like the upholstered storage cubes/ottomans for end tables and coffee table for extra storage.
Buy smaller scale furniture instead of big over-stuffed furniture that is meant for apartments and smaller spaces.
Choose a monochromatic color scheme and lighter shades will trick the eye for the room to appear larger.
