a Small Space 
Look Bigger

Older buildings are known 
for having simpler floor plans.
The construction industry is 
now including smaller rooms 
in residential and 
commercial buildings.

These compact areas are 
designed to serve multiple 
purposes that can range from 
offices to guest bedrooms.

In addition to providing flexibility 
for the floor plan, these tinier 
areas also offer benefits that 
include being easier to clean and 
keep organized.

The ability to create a cozy 
ambience is nice, but the smaller 
square footage means that these 
rooms can quickly feel cramped 
and cluttered.

In most cases, it only takes 
a few simple changes to 
transform the area and create 
a feeling of spaciousness.
Bring In More Light
Tiny rooms can quickly begin to feel like a closet 
if they are shut off from the rest 
of the world. 
Whenever possible, include large windows in 
the design plans for smaller rooms. 
Energy-efficient glass makes it possible to use 
big panes without having to worry about rising 
utility bills.
For a light and airy effect, use sheer curtains 
or drapes that allow the most light to come 
through the windows. 
Being able to see a view of the outside helps to 
open up a room that feels tiny and crowded.
Stay Separate But 
Connected

In a commercial building, it is 
common to find that there are 
multiple small offices that are 
all placed next to each other.

Glass partitions are an option 
that allows for the building to 
seem larger.

Our partition systems have 
sliding glass doors that 
provide sound-dampening 
benefits when employees and 
clients need privacy.

Clear partitions provide the 
most benefits for creating 
a sense of more space, but 
frosted or opaque styles are 
also available.
Expand and Reflect

Moving walls might not be 
possible in certain buildings. 
Mirrors are an alternative 
option that can have similar 
benefits without having to do 
a major renovation. 
RABENGLASS.CO

Strategically placed mirrors 
can help to make a room 
look larger since the 
reflection creates a sense 
of visual expansion.

Floor to ceiling mirrors are 
a great way to make small 
dance studios and dressing 
areas look larger.

In a bedroom, this effect is 
easily achieved through the 
installation of mirrored 
closet doors.

Smaller versions can also be 
included as wall hangings or 
backdrops to provide a slightly 
more subtle effect of 
expanding space.
Choose Streamlined 
Furniture

Bulky pieces of furniture can 
quickly make a small space 
feel cramped. 
Tables and shelves can be made 
using glass that helps the furniture 
to blend into the environment.

Since you can see through the 
surfaces, the furniture becomes 
less obtrusive.

This strategy also fits perfectly in 
with the modern design styles 
that are often used in interior 
decorating today, and it works 
best with a monochromatic 
color scheme.

Chrome, brushed metal and light 
wood bases all look beautiful 
with glass tops.

Opening up smaller spaces 
makes it easier to think outside 
of the box when you are working 
on a project for work or trying to 
manage tasks at home.

Installing glass features improves 
the aesthetics of smaller spaces 
and gives you a clearer mindset 
that inspires a sense of calmness 
and increases productivity.
