Tall slender pieces, avoid clutter, utilize shelves.
For more detailed help, dimensions and room usage would be a big help.
Mid century modern is great furniture for small spaces. Iron framed beds are good for small bedrooms. Light colors work well and furniture with feet so that light can travel under the piece.
You could try for pieces that serve dual functions like a long table that is part desk, murphy bed instead of a regular one. Also, go with a larger sectional sofa without upholstered side chairs, and use a good-sized coffee table with no end tables. Use floor lamps behind the sofa in place of lamps on end tables. Make one wall a focal point with a big colorful painting. Pick up those colors in a few throw pillows on the sofa. Maybe a colorful rug under the coffee table. Less furniture is good, but the pieces don't have to be small. Good Luck. Oh, and you don't need to spend a fortune.
Structube specializes in furniture for small spaces also Ikea. Look up online places where you live that sell small space or space saving furniture. Also check places like Wayfair and then see if you can find a place in your area that sells the pieces if it’s something you need to try for comfort
