  It can be difficult to organize a space if you do not have a lot of room. When working with a small space, you may feel like your options are limited. However, with some smart planning and helpful advice, you can optimize a room, office or any other space's potential.
  
  

Lighting

• Strategic lighting can make any space look larger. First and foremost, utilize natural lighting. Being able to see everything in your space will make it look larger and more inviting. If natural light is not available, add lighting fixtures to your ceiling or walls that will brighten up the sides of the room.
  
  

Organize

• Organizing any clutter in your area can provide more space. Additional shelves and storage bins allow you to utilize space both vertically and horizontally.
  
  

Upgrade

• Upgrading appliances and technology can improve your space. Many devices today are made to be smaller and perform more functions than older models.
  
  

Reduce

• See if there is any clutter in your space that you no longer need. Donating or disposing extra things that take up space will clear up a lot more room.
