Not only such corners make the place look dull but also can make it appear smaller in size too. Here are eight easy options to brighten up those not so bright corners of your living space:
1. Add fairy lights, aromatic candles or other ambient light sources.
If you want get attention to the corner without drastically increasing the luminosity of the place, the fairy lights can do the trick for you. Decorate the corner with fairy light strings, or you can also add few aromatic candles or other ambient light sources. They not only give a right amount of luminosity but also adds a charm to your room.

5. Keep the furniture piece minimal with attractive design.
6. Add some embroidered artwork cushions to add luxury.
7. Adding a large indoor plant to the corner flashing the light from behind.
8. A chest of drawers with lamp on it and a few books. A flowerpot and a few aromatic candles to make it more peaceful and a chair on its side with an accent cushion on it, to make it a perfect reading corner.
