I do too. I've tried just about everything as I think mirrors look dated. Light gray on selected walls have some ambience to all over white walls. I refreshed the white walls with the brightest white paint in eggshell I could find. The eggshell has a bit of a reflective effect. Next UNCLUTTER, UNCLUTTER. Minimum chachkis.

reflective wallpaper or paint with a sheen.
Wow, that is small. The right furniture is a must! Fold down table? Chairs to be used for duel purpose...sitting and at table for eating? Keep clutter to a minimum and think "up" for storage. A shelf above the doors and windows will allow for storage bins to be used for seldom used objects. Bed can be a day bed which can also serve as seating.
