Let&#8217;s face it &#8211; no one uses a conservatory anymore, and a massive kitchen looks way better. To make your space look even bigger, paint the room white and break it up with paintings and accessories.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/extension.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2810\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/extension.jpg\" alt=\"Conservatory extension\" width=\"530\" height=\"721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/extension.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/extension-368x500.jpg 368w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.realhomesmagazine.co.uk\/completed-projects\/extensions\/replacing-conservatory-with-kitchen-extension\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Open plan bedroom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s not the cosiest bedroom in the world, but it could be one of the coolest.
