No need to have a great stomp or a spectacular case to apply the techniques or the knowledge of a decorator. My mother always said that for a normal house there was already hers. That she was interested in seeing and enjoying the spectacular houses that appeared in the great decoration magazines, or in the reports on the front pages of the Hi! (A classic if ever there was).
The truth is that reason was not lacking because all housing (however small or simple it may be), it is capable of improve your image through the simple tricks that decorators and stylists use on a recurring basis in the assemblies or styles of these “cases.” That although it is true that these tricks look more and better with large windows and many meters, they are also applicable in your “humble abode” where will improve its aesthetics and the sensations it transmits, with a little skill and affection that you put.
## With symmetry you are always right The most applied resource in Ancient Greece and Rome is ** symmetry **, (you see that it is new). They used this resource in their buildings on a recurring basis and it continues to be one of the most effective and easy to apply also indoors. Especially suitable for the more ** squared and those who love order **, as its name indicates it implies ** using symmetry in a space ** after imagining a dividing line in a more or less large piece of furniture. The most clarifying example is the employee ** in any bedroom where it is decorated as if an imaginary line divided the bed ** and the spaces on each side are symmetrical. If you put the same tables, cushions and lamps, they will guarantee an orderly and clean view of the space.

In these works very well to place two equal lamps on each side, some very similar or symmetrical decorative elements, with a vase or a plant in the center of the composition.

Image Via Amber Interiors The use of mirrors
Nor is it a thing that has been invented now. The most exemplary case is that of Versailles and its spectacular hall of mirrors. That you think and say What did they have at the beginning? A long and narrow area; like a giant hallway full of windows to one side. What did you do? Place mirrors facing each other and with the same shape as the windows facing them and thus, they managed to multiply the light and the width of the corridor, generating a very Wow, which makes her so famous.
So now you know, don’t think so much about where to place a mirror to see yourself in full length, (that also) but to take advantage of that walls in the dining room in the living room or even the hallway, who receive natural light to multiply it.

Paintings with perspective or trompe l’oeil
I remember the house of a neighbor of my parents when I was little who must be an art lover. At the end of her long corridor she had placed a replica of Millet’s gleaners.
And with all my respects and admiration for the work, sorry, the reply; every time I crossed the hall my back hurt. A corridor that functioned as a distributor for all rooms and that you are inevitably condemned to see a lot. I admit that maybe only I felt this stress, but Why not use an empty wall in the background to generate more depth and light with images that simulate trompe l’oeil?

Something taller like a vase or figure, and when you use the table you can collect all the items that appear on it on the tray, and leave it on the other side, or under the table.
