One thing we all wish we had more of in our homes and offices is space.
However, unless you’re in a position where you can extend your property, it’s not something that can be easily achieved.
Not to worry, though!
There are plenty of simple, much more affordable ways you can create the illusion of more space in your home or workplace.
Glass is just one of them, and it works wonders in brightening up dark, shadowy areas, making your space feel larger and helping you lean into the modern minimalist aesthetic.
But which glass products are best?
In this article, the experts at Express Glass Warehouse share the four glass elements you can incorporate into your property’s design to help give the illusion of more space.
- Mirrors
Mirrors are more than just a tool to help you get ready in the morning, and their ability to create the illusion of more space and add depth to a room shouldn’t be overlooked.
Whether it’s in your bedroom, living room, or bathroom, mirrors are the ultimate space creators – stretching your space with their reflection and making it feel much brighter.
- Glass doors
Rather than wooden doors or solid walls, why not consider separating living or workspaces with glass doors?
Utilising the power of natural light is a great way to make your rooms feel more spacious, and a glass door will allow any light pooling in through the windows to flow effortlessly throughout the rest of your property, making it feel much more spacious.
Not only this, but glass doors can also elongate rooms, too, allowing you to see further into your surroundings and creating the illusion of one continuous space.
- Glass balustrades
If your hallway is looking a little dark and you’re in need of a way to maximise natural light flow, a glass balustrade is the way to go.
Wooden staircase parts, or again, solid walls, can block the majority of the light coming in through nearby windows, making your hall, stairs, and landing area look darker and, inevitably, smaller.
However, when you replace these wooden parts (like your handrail and spindles) with glass panels, you can achieve a bright, airy feel and make your stairway feel a lot larger.
- Glass kitchen splashbacks
If you’re upgrading your splashback, you should definitely consider investing in a glass option.
The reflective quality of the glass bounces light around in your kitchen, making it, you guessed it, feel much bigger. Perfect for smaller cooking spaces!
If you opt for a high-gloss or mirrored glass splashback, you can create the illusion of depth to make your kitchen feel even more expansive.
