I don't know about that. Unseen Diplomacy [0] uses similar tricks to simulate a much larger space than the size of the room. It requires a minimum area of 3m x 4m, which is within the size of many people's rooms (admittedly, I only managed to find this much space when I temporarily had no furniture in the room). It's quite an effective experience.

Unseen Diplomacy is really cool... Its tricks are also not going to let you play Skyrim like you are in a holo-deck.
