Thank you! I painted my bedroom (envelope) in one color and it looks and feels fine. Besides having to use smaller nighstands. I believe the declutterings of things seen and unseen certainly affects the aesthetics. Still working on decluttering books, magazines, etc. I like your humor, and it makes seeing your videos a pleasure.
Thank you for showing even dark small spaces and how they can look so much larger when the entire "envelope" is the same color. Great examples. It helps us visualize. Saw something I actually may consider getting. Back in the day, before furniture makers got serious about people living in small homes (even old city rowhouses), I know folks who went to boat supply places that sold furniture and other household items for houseboats (and later motor homes), so they'd have smaller things at home, leaving space for people. NOW YOU MUST ADDRESS why folks in suburbia often have small dogs and city dwellers, big ones!
@@squalloogal Big dogs make sense when there is a security aspect. City dwellers with big dogs like big dogs, and also like feeling safe. Small dogs - often less "play" time, or more restricted areas inside the house; little or no security concerns except barking. Many suburban folks like their labradors and Retrievers/setters as they are good family dogs and good with kids when properly socialized. Women with purse dogs? Sigh. I guess a replacement for kids.

Thank you very much. Greetings from germany. My last problem is solved. Friends always ask who furnished your apartment? I answer: "Lisa Holt". The world is a village. All the best to you from my heart!
That’s some really cool ideas to even use for like my house I have 7-8 rooms that make up my home none of them are large. It’s an older home so they weren’t made to have big bedrooms, so I have problems with the scale of what furniture is today and the size of my rooms they begin to feel crowded and cluttered, so these were some really good ideas that I could implement! The fact that you just solidified the fact of my one color walls floors ceilings well I’m already doing that because for me it made my room look bigger so I’m glad I’m doing something right lol! Thanks Lisa for always giving us tips and tricks!
ah ah ah...dear Ms Lisa, you are such one and unique of a kind !! Fastforwarding your voice for info matters....is SO funny (and not bothering us with the details), thank you so much! (for your lovely humour!!! ;) We just moved in a studio...after living in a 4-bedroom house!! (OMG! we did! and we love it...) Therefore, your video and advice are SO PRECIOUS! (mirror! huge art work! shelf above a door, same colour palet for a rug.....so guuuuud! :) I took good notes....a million times: thank you Ms Lisa!!! helene :))
Yay Helen! I'm so glad you found this helpful, I have four more additional small space videos on my channel. You could check out as well. Thanks so much for being a subscriber!
Your content is always so great. I have learned so much from you and have been able to decorate my son’s apartment so that it is functional and attractive. He loves it. He purchased a few high quality furniture pieces, large art, nice lamps. Colorful and cozy. Couldn’t have done it without listening to Lisa! Thank you.
I can see one small problem with an area rug that too closely matches the floor color. As one gets older, and one's vision gets worse, it gets harder to distinguish between the rug and the floor. And the rug can become a trip hazard.
A great big thank you. You confirmed some of the decisions that I have made. I am working with a long very narrow living space. Will be painting everything white, and will use a 120 inch sofa, and an accent chair. I will skip the rug. Creating a 4 x 5 textured art canvas. Before purchasing the furniture I will map it out with painters tape on the floor.This channel is very helpful, and you are a design genius!
Yes! Thanks for validating the area rug / floor idea. I avoid area rugs if at all possible, or use a color that closely matches the floor. Family keeps trying to push rugs on me 🤮
You are right about monochromatic making space seem larger. I just moved into a 2 bed, 1 bath 964 sq. ft. condo. I love color and have antiques. I have dark laminate floors and popcorn ceiling. I'm not painting the walls to match dark laminate or popcorn. I chose an off white blue in eggshell that picks up blue greys in my rose and green antique couch and chairs. I did paint doors and trim same color in semi-gloss. Love it! I will live with my living room looking smaller, with too much furniture and maximalist decor. You have to go with what you love. Also the sliding glass door in the living room facing the green space beyond opens it somewhat. Everyone who has come in seems genuinely wowed. Follow your passion, folks.
I totally agree with you I live in a 500 ft² apartment and I have big antiques and a big couch the thing is you can put big furniture in a place the thing is don't put too much of it so smaller furniture can make small spaces look even smaller and I do not choose to live in a white Box either
Area rugs that match the floor? Brilliant! I had never thought of that before seeing your video. I have two fairly small guest rooms that will be remodeled soon, and I really wanted rugs in there for comfort and warmth. I have already bought the flooring, so now I can shop for the right rugs! Thank you!

@@LisaHoltDesign your advice is brilliant. I made the error of using metro tiles in small bathroom with grey grout but corrected this to the 24"x24" for both en-suites and wetroom and it looks much better. The issue with the smaller tiles is you're guaranteed to get slither cuts somewhere! I'll send some pics to you? Keep up the good work, I'm a fan in every sense. Dan x

Love the rug advice! Thank you Lisa for this video, I live in London UK and what are tiny rooms in US here are just normal size so always struggle to visualise on the examples given...but this one is just perfect!
So glad I saw this before building our very small house later this year. Great ideas that I haven't heard anyone else mention. 👍 Will be subscribing for sure!😄
Perfect timing. About to move into a 1480 sq. ft., 3 bdrm. custom home, having downsized from one three times as big. Totally new dimensions and style. Thanks for the tips, especially about the rug.

We live in a 1939 small house of 1000sqft with 8 ft ceilings. I have paint d all the walls, ceiling, trim and kitchen & bath cabinets the same color- it has really opened it up. Our old dark oak and walnut furniture pops against the SW Alabaster- I also added natural color linen curtains with matchstick blinds (due to cost of curtains I have “dummy” panels that don’t close all the way so the blinds help with light control) but I fail with the area rugs on our medium pecan stained wood floors- they have color and movement more on the new “vintage” style. I don’t have a lot of art or pictures on our walls or lots of tchotchkes but more curated things through our 40 years of marriage- we are not collectors, maximalists or even minimalists- we just keep everything simple with a few things we love not what’s trendy- except for plants- we love live greenery so several plants in each room and our outside garden is coming along very well. What Lisa is recommending is perfect for small spaces because it works for us and people are surprised how large our rooms look though the largest is our 15x16 entry/living room (the 2 bedrooms are 11x13 and 11x14, the bath is 5x7, the eat in kitchen is 11x14).
@@LisaHoltDesign I have been following you forever and you had mentioned this a few years ago and I repainted every where in our house back then! You rock!

Q- cluster of hats vs. gallery wall: Do the hats work, because they are all the same or is it the spacing? I have several paintings that are like 16*20/ 11*14, could it work if they are all super close together? They are gallery wrapped, but distinct pieces (not abstract or triptych).
@@LisaHoltDesign - Thank you, Lisa. I used to work in a frame shop, and learned a lot from the various designers using our business to help them design/decorate their customers' homes. One thing I learned is that framing & matting a number of pieces with the same color values & materials (e.g. black & white family photos from the 40's all matted with white and framed with thin pale gray frames) could create a cohesive visual unit if hung closely & precisely, e.g. three by three to create a single visual unit out of nine antique photos. This also works with smaller canvases created for the purpose (e.g. all painted the same general shades of layered blues with various cloud formations on them.) This works while you're saving up for that enormous artwork by your favorite artist that is six feet tall and framed in a gilt frame from the late 1800's -- available at auction for thousands. Ulp.
I moved from a 3500 sft suburban house to a city with a view 1600sqft apt - I am still struggling with area rugs for over the light cream wool carpet to deal with children and red wine. I want light colored rugs but can I get away with a pattern? A big pattern? How similar in color does it have to be? Your photos were light but not exact same carpet. So far your advice has been priceless
Great video thank you. We live in a small house and when you walk in the door you can see into the bedrooms. Do you suggest making your envelope all the same colour in all the rooms.
She says "sail away in your own boat" and I get a cruise ad. lol
