How I Made a 10×10 Room Look Bigger Using These 5 Space Saving Furniture Picks
Space Saving Furniture Items For Small Spaces

I always get a suffocated feeling in my 10 x 10 bedroom where I could barely squeeze in a desk, a bed and some storage which are of course never enough to fit in all my stuff. But somehow after hours of scrolling YT videos, checking out DIY hacks I cracked the trick of making a little room seem larger. After checking out many products on Amazon I finally found the 5 best space saving furniture that somehow magically transformed by space with the much needed aesthetics I always wanted.

I began with avoiding heavy furniture and indulged in those pieces that either become invisible or have three functions simultaneously. By incorporating a multipurpose bookshelf I was able to organize all my books along with decorating its exteriors with the action figures of my favourite anime. Plus I got a sofa cum bed and it helped me gain almost 30 percent in the amount of walkable floor space. I have vetted these five products according to their footprint to utility ratio and ensured that they can address the traps that I frequently encountered in the form of clutter.  Lets get a better understanding of these and find out my secret to make a 10 x 10 bedroom look bigger.

Small Space, Big Impact: My Pro Tips for Mastering the 10×10 Room Illusion

  • Focus On Legged Furniture: I prefer items that have visible legs (as in the case of the shelf and desk) over those that have a solid surface to allow the floor to be seen so that the brain can perceive more space.
  • Adopt the Vertical Skyline: I push all the storage up the walls with hutches and tall racks and leave the eye-level area empty to create a sense of increased distance on the walls.
  • Make use of Light Reflection: I place my wall-mounted mirror directly opposite a window or sources of light so the natural light is reflected deep into the corners and this makes the room appear to be twice its depth immediately.
  • Invisible and Modular Seating: I used foldable seating like chair and sofa cum bed to make the most of my space. I can anytime put them back in place and leave my walking path with one hundred percent clearance.

    Rosebell Foldable One Seater Sofa Cum Bed, Sofa Bed 3 X 6 Feet, Jute Fabric

    Loading...

    Rosebell Foldable Sofa Cum Bed was the main seating and guest solution I selected. This 3 x 6 feet unit was designed with high quality jute fabric and a 3-fold design that can be changed instantly in seconds to a full length mattress or an armchair. The fabric was extremely breathable, and I liked the fact that the cover could be washed, which makes it a very convenient option in my day-to-day life.

    How It Made My Room Look Bigger: I saved almost 12 square feet of floor space by folding it into a sofa when I was not in the house. It also does not hamper the visual line of the room as it does not have much mark which makes my walls seem longer and my floor more open.

    ABOUT SPACE Bookshelf for Home - 6 Tier Book Rack for Study Room

    Loading...

    To have my library in order, I chose to use the ABOUT SPACE 6-tier book rack. This shelf is constructed using strong engineered wood and an open-back system that is contemporary and minimalistic. It offers six different degrees of storage, meaning that I can place any item as heavy as a textbook and as light as a decorative action figure without the unit being overwhelming and intimidating.

    How It Made My Room Look Bigger: By putting my books in a stacky pile to a long, thin unit I had gained invaluable horizontal space. Its open-frame design lets light go through it, and this is why the bookshelf does not make the rooms look smaller like a visual wall (as is common with 10x10 rooms).

    ABOUT SPACE Wooden Study Table with Hutch & Bottom Storage

    Loading...

    I swapped my simple desk with this Abo Eu Space Wooden Study Table that has a hutch in-built and a bottom storage shelf built inside it. It is completed in a smooth wenge hue, which offers a dedicated workstation, which is grounded and professional. It is well-built and the built-in compartments are just right to accommodate office supplies and electronics.

    How It Made My Room Look Bigger: I cleared all these storage boxes miscellaneously on the floor of the desk by using the hutch above the desk, which left me with a much cleaner walking space.

    Pivalo Folding Beach Chair with Arm Rest Portable Lightweight Foldable Chair

    Loading...

    I used the Pivalo Folding Chair to create more spacious seating. It is a light in weight and portable. Designed in a rainbow striped pattern and has comfortable armrests it worked as a perfect complementing decor piece for my room. The most interesting thing about it is its fold up feature, with one movement the chair folds down, giving your space a clutter free look.

    How It Made My Room Look Bigger: This is my disappearing piece of furniture. In a 10x10 room, I cannot afford to have an additional armchair that will do nothing half the time. I fold this chair and slip it under my wardrobe or bed when I am alone, and the furniture is immediately deleted off the floor, thus making the room appear to be twice as wide.

    Mahaakaay Engineered Wood Wall Mounted Rectangular Dressing Mirror With Storage

    Loading...

    I have fitted this Wall Mounted Rectangular Mirror to use as a grooming station as well as storage unit. It is a two-fold-purpose unit having a full-length mirror at the front and a secret storage cabinet at the back. My secret tip for the placement of this mirror was putting it directly opposite to my window so the natural light is reflected deep into the corners and this makes the room appear to be twice its depth immediately.

    How It Made My Room Look Bigger: This was the real space-saver since the room seems much larger by sweeping the space underneath the mirror. The mirror is also used to show the other side of the room, and this is a psychological gimmick to multiply the apparent depth of my 100-square-foot room.
