One of the simplest techniques that professional designers often resort to is the use of a vertical pattern.

This task can be accomplished with stripes that go upwards and seem to stretch the room in the direction of the pattern, as well as plant patterns depicting flowers, bushes or trees growing upwards.

The second technique is to use mirrors on the ceiling. This technique adds depth to the room and also reflects light, making the living room look more spacious.

The third option is to use squat furniture, which will make the room seem more spacious. Sofas and armchairs, the height of which does not exceed a third of the ceiling height, cope with this task.
