Add Big Statement Furniture Pieces :
This is a common mistake most homeowners make —too many small, spindly pieces in one room. A room with leggy chairs, leggy tables and lots of small knick knacks only serve to clutter the room and confuse the eye.
Instead try for a room that is well mixed. Have a large sofa, some skirted club chairs (so you can’t see the legs) and then one or two slender arm chairs with attractive carved legs (depending on space).
This is just one example, but it gives you the idea of mixing furniture styles and sizes so that the room looks balanced not too bulky and not too spindly. Even if you are decorating a small apartment there are plenty of decorating ideas to try.
Most designers will recommend that even the smallest of rooms have one large statement piece, such as a large armoire or cabinet. A mixture of big and little is key to a successful design. This rule goes with accessories, too.
