No! Small spaces need smaller pieces and lighter colors to give the illusion of size. Dark and/or oversize furniture makes small spaces seem cluttered, tight, claustrophobic, and poorly designed. Now, if you are trying to work in furniture you already own, there are a few tricks that can help. Let's stick with a dark sofa, position it in front of or near a light source like a window, which will allow your eye to move past the sofa. Add mirrors to the room, the size will be determined by the size of the sofa. Paint the walls a light color (and light doesn't mean white) and choose light-colored accessories to offset the dark sofa. Another idea is to re-purpose the furniture by moving larger pieces to other rooms. But, ultimately, design is what makes you happy, what make a room feel like home, and what you're willing to live with.
