Keep it simple in small spaces. Light colors and

reflective surfaces help brighten smaller rooms. For

example, frosted glass with interior lighting livens

the space while concealing cabinet contents for a

clean, uncluttered look. Proportionate molding

adds a decorative touch and maintains the fresh,

airy atmosphere.
