Maximum use of vertical space

Since a small room has very less floor space, the walls can be given additional responsibilities. There can be artistic or creative stands or units that will look not only attractive but also can be used for storing or placing things.

The colors of these stands can be in contrast to the color of the wall. All the four walls of a room (or 3 walls) can be decorated differently.
