For many inhabitants of apartments and small homes, the biggest challenge is how to fit their furniture into the small space and still keep the place looking stylish and inviting. Fortunately, you can now find furniture designed for compact living but with a modern edge.
Below, we have several ideas to inspire you to use your square footage optimally, without sacrificing appearance and comfort.
Drop-Leaf Table
When you have tight space but don’t want to give up style for function, go for a drop-leaf table. These pieces have a fixed middle section and hinged sides (leaves) that you can fold down to save space. When you want a bigger table surface, just raise the sides.
You can push the table against the wall to create a makeshift desk, drop the leaves to create a TV stand, or lift the leaves when you want to serve dinner. The Baltimore Gateleg table has storage drawers in the middle and can transform into a cabinet when you drop the table tops. Check out its classy compatriot, the Paso Gateleg, which is made of solid pine.
Multi-Purpose Desk
If you want to have an office in your apartment, but don’t have the space, a multi-purpose desk will come in handy. This desk can turn any space into the perfect work nook. You’ll never have to work from your bed or sofa.
There are many designs that you can choose, and you can also use the desk for different functions such as housing your printer and displaying your books. Some come with extra storage compartments for storing your gadgets.
Extendable Table
Modern extension tables are a space-efficient addition to the dining room or kitchen. They come in a variety of builds and styles suitable for any sized space—yes, even those awkward corners you thought couldn’t fit a table. The Colombus extension table is a must-have if you’re low on space.
Whether it is coffee time for one, or dinner for six, this extendable table has your back. You can also use it to display craft items, plants, novels, and vases. This Goodland dining table is also a great addition that can perfectly accommodate up to eight people when extended fully.
Stacking Chairs
If you frequently host visitors, you definitely need ample seating space. But if your sofa already takes up most of your living room, it’s best you invest in space-saving stacking chairs. You can easily bring them out when you have company and stow them away when alone.
Just make sure they are durable and complement your decor. Don’t fancy stacking chairs? Go for the Edrine dining chairs. They take up little space, have an elegant finished wood frame, and are super comfy.
Wooden Room Divider
If you want to create new rooms out of thin air, go for a wooden room divider. Apart from creating multiple living areas in your apartment, a divider can introduce dimension, elegance, and colour into a room.
You can divide space with a large bookshelf, wooden slats, or sliding doors. A divider is a great option when you’re inviting guests to your studio apartment and want some privacy. Some designs can be folded with ease and put away when you don’t need them.
Compact Dining Set
When you have a tiny dining room, a small dining table is a perfect solution. It adds function to your home without wasting space, and you can use it to reaffirm your home’s style. If you’re after something compact, the Karachi five-piece dining set offers great value.
It has a mid-century design, offers ample legroom, and comes with well-crafted, padded, contemporary dining chairs. For those who enjoy entertaining friends or have a larger family, the Kariba seven-piece dining set will fit the tightest of spaces and is super stylish too.
Storage Beds
Storage beds are a fantastic option when space is at a premium. They are fitted with hidden compartments where you can store linens, luggage, out-of-season clothing, and even toys.
The storage can be a hydraulic storage system, bed frames with drawers, or headboard shelves. Alternatively, you can get a futon bed that acts as a couch during the day and as a bed at night.
