The remodeling of this small flat in Minsk, by designer Zrobym, shows us that small spaces don’t always appear tightly stuffed, and that they don’t need to be devoid of features and colour to achieve a spacious look. This particular compact home uses pops of solid yellow to tie each area together, without the strong hue becoming overwhelming within the limited proportions. The cheerful accents create several moments of interest, keeping the eye moving around the scheme. See how the wall space has been used to full effect too, and slimline furniture has been implemented to fill the home with practical options–without overfilling.

A playful side to the home design comes out in the yellow accent living room, where a Simpson throw pillow brightens up the sofa. The face can be turned to the back for a plainer look too. Decorative vases with a wild floral arrangement are a great way to liven up a coffee table and this clean white jug style vessel suits the simplicity of the scheme well. The sunshine yellow section offers a nice clear space for setting down the coffee mugs.

A floor lamp standing over a stack of books on the floor makes the sofa into a cozy reading place. The white AJ Floor Lamp matches the white wall shelf where even more books are stored. See our living rooms for book lovers for more bookworm inspired spaces.

Two soft grey kitchen pendant lights illuminate the dining and cooking zone. Their colour ties in with that of the lounge, and with the adjacent mural on the partially dividing wall. Three kitchen stools sit in audience to the culinary show going on at the hob.

A thin dividing wall shields and separates the kitchen from the entryway. White units in the entryway mimic those used in the kitchen. A small yellow ottoman carries the accent colour through and provides a comfy seat for storing and putting on shoes.

Wall hooks above the ottoman provide a handy place to hang up bags, hats and scarves by the door. A typographical doormat brings another dash of humour to the home.

Slim paneled bi-fold doors on the wardrobe are perfect for a bedroom of limited space. This allows the bed to be situated closer to the closet without the problem of regular sized hinged doors hitting the bed-frame when opened outward.

In this sitting area, indoor house plants peep out of a cool extruded wall feature. The seating here is a banquette that is built into a chunky wooden box frame. The boxing is deep enough to form shelves on each side, substantial enough to conveniently situate a coffee maker for on-hand hot beverages to fuel work from home.
