In case you’re working through the puzzle of furnishing a small space, here are some things I’ve learned over the years which might help to achieve your own, functional yet stylish oasis.
5 Things To Think About for a Small Space
1. It may seem obvious, but flexible items such as tables that fold-away / extend and stackable chairs are ideal for homes where space is of a premium.
2. Use the full height of a room and store lesser used items higher up.
3. Opt for multipurpose furniture such as a sofa bed, shelving that can also be used for hanging (as seen in this home), and pieces that double up as storage (there are some great coffee tables with built in storage around!).
4. Work to create distinct zones using rugs / different flooring.
5. Use negative space to create an illusion of size – but don’t be afraid to go for big pieces of furniture too!
Please feel free to add any tips and tricks you’ve discovered in the comment section.
